    I'll try and get this moving along to the final stop tomorrow or Friday. I added a couple of things for Jayaruh that he hasn't tried yet.

    The box arrived. I had forgotten all about it until today. I checked the tracking and found out that it was in town and out for delivery. When I went down to check the mail, there were two pieces of mail, but no package. I checked the tracking again and it said it was out for delivery. Evidently the mail came late today. What I got earlier must have been yesterday's mail. Well, it was dark and I checked tracking again, and it said it was delivered in or near the mailbox. So, I went down again and found a box full of mail and the package was in the back, wall to wall. I had the hardest time getting it out of the box. It was loaded in from the back, but they did not take into account that the door on the front impeded the opening by probably 3/8 inch. I took out my trusty Swiss Army knife and cut the package out.

    I feel like I am the winner. Garrett, @gwsmallwood, added in some stuff of his own. Here's what I got.

    Citrus Pre-shave oil, Proraso Pre-shave, Pinaud Clubman Vanilla AS, TSD AS splash (peppermint), the Neillite razor, Col. Conk Amber Soap, Every Man Jack Shaving Lotion, and a variety of 9 blades.

    And so it comes to an end.
    RIP little GrabBox.

    Hope you all enjoyed it.

    I enjoyed freeing up some space for..uh..other acquisitions.

    Thanks again to @Mr. Shaverman for the GrabBox idea.

    I've only tried out the Every Man Jack Shave Cream and Lotion so far. The lotion is nice, but goes on just a little more oily than my current Neutrogena Moisturizer. The shave cream is definitely serviceable, but wasn't anything special. It was my first foray into brushless creams of that style. I'm guessing it's pretty good for what it is. It would make a nice travel cream.

    I've been taking part in Fatboy February, so I haven't tried out the 1914 yet, but I may cheat and do a SE Sunday before the end of the month. Currently talking to a friend about getting the straight into shave-ready shape.

    I tried out the Proraso Pre-shave this morning. It added an extra chill :Animatedfrozensmily: to the Proraso :Animatedfrozensmily: green. Very nice shave.
