    "...Skirted the rules," or bent them into a pretzel?

    I think it violates the spirit of NBJ, even if it doesn't violate the "rules."

    That was nice of the young man to "give" you those razors. Maybe next month you can make a donation to his thrift shop.

    Another Old Spice find!

    Wife was out shopping the other day and picked up this nice Talc bottle! A little faded but hey, it's at least as old as me! :happy088: Nice add to my collection!
    OS stuff is getting really hard to find in the wild ( thinking that ObiDon cornered the market :) ) so gotta say thanks to my wife for looking out for me!

    Pictured is what I have received from @txskimo from his feel better PIF. It was everything he said plus more. I treasure the scuttle. I use Kai & Pol/Silver but now am anxious to try the Feathers and all the Russians he sent.
    The Old Spice mug, the Avon pipe decanter, the SS and the New are gifts from my wife's many garage sale-ing excursions while vacationing in Rochester, NY. (who knows what I would have found if I were with her and not golfing). The beard trimmer and the two brushes I've had a while. Just added decor for the photo.

    Not a bad haul for NBJ. AND I'm still in.

    That looks like the "If it fits it ships PIF." Wow.

    I couldn't find a better place to photograph all that I received the last week other than my "Shave of the Day" shelf. I feel loved.

    Makes me glad I didn't win that. Opening the box may have put me into cardiac arrest! ;)

    One other thing I forgot to mention, maybe the most important to me....
    After unwrapping all the goodies sent by @txskimo, I was very happy to find I wasn't in the "Alvin Advertiser" obituaries.:happy108:

    I just use the bubble wrap the nice people on eBay send me. I reuse some of the boxes too.

    For what it's worth, I just want to say that @txskimo went above and beyond what he offered. With admiration.... Thanks

    104 years old. Found it yesterday in the wild. The teeth are straight, and it has only the slightest crack at the top of the handle. (I hope I can say the same about myself when I'm 104.)

    Came home from a business trip today, and had a box waiting for me. Hadn't ordered anything for a while, so had no idea what it was. Kinda wish I hadn't shaved this morning now.

    To my NBJ Brethren, I ordered this on June 30th at like 10pm, so I am still in!

    Just for clarification. I did not buy these. I traded for them.
    They are here. Two black badger knots from Whipped Dog. Ordered July 8, arrived July 17.
