The box arrived today and the contents were all fine. Man, there's a LOT of stuff in there. I will make my selections and get it back in the mail on Wednesday. I'm going to have to get a new box because there was a hole in the side of this one, hence the delay.

 

I've made my selections, but I won't get the box in the mail until Wednesday because I have to replace the box.

Here is what I'm leaving:

Pacific All Natural Shave Cream
TSD Cool Water Type Shave Soap
Gillette Gold Ball End Tech 3-piece razor

Here is what I'm taking:

Goodrej Menthol Mist Shaving Cream
Unknow Sample of Shave Cream (I think it's either an almond or a sandalwood)
5/8 Union Cultery Wedge

I'll post the confirmation number once I get the box in the mail.

 

I hope you enjoy the Goodrej! I liked it, but after my trials and tribulations, I come to the realization I'm a soap man.

 

I haven't tried it yet. I prefer soaps, but I have some creams...and I love menthol so I'm looking forward to trying it out!

 

The box is in the mail headed to Overland Park!!

Confirmation number: 0312 0090 0000 4557 2116

As a native Kansan, I will close with: GO CHIEFS!!!!!!!

 

GO CHIEFS indeed! :football:

Come to me travel box! Come and meet your new (albeit temporary) master!

 

Go Box Go! I am the next stop when it leaves Kansas!

 

Now in Houston. Heck, I could just take a short 10-hour drive down there and pick it up.

 

Only 10 hours? I think the quickest I've ever made the trip is 11.5 hours (accounting for Houston traffic). LOL

 

USPS is reporting that it has arrived at my local post office...pics tonight, assuming it gets delivered!

 

The box is getting closer and closer to Tennessee by the minute...

 

So um, yeah...i opened the box...think I'll need to channel my inner tetris to put it all back!

 

I've made my selections and additions and will post pics later. I have to work all afternoon, so won't have a chance to ship today. So, Monday it is!

 

Sorry for the delay. It was a crazy work weekend here!

Here are three shots of the box & its contents when it arrived:



Opening this was almost like opening one of those snake-in-a-can jokes! And here are my selections:



A bottle of Wild Country, a really neat gold travel injector with the name, "E. Allen Creavey" engraved on it and a Fossil pouch (I think it's meant for watches, but looks to be perfect for razors!). I felt a little guilty taking two nicer items, so I raided my classic stash of blades, etc... and am including the following:


Two packs of Gillette Super Platinums, one pack of Gillette Bleue Extras, one pack of Iridium Supers, one sample size of TSD Almond Aftershave Milk (whoever takes this, be careful, it's double-mentholated!!!), a travel packet of Wilkinson shave cream and Palmolive Shave Stick.

 

Getting closer and closer to Tennessee, I can feel it.
Go Box Go!

 

Great to see the box moving around so nicely.

Thank you everyone for keeping the box moving!!

 

Headed to the post office now. Go Box, GO!
