    Hi. Welcome to my PIF.

    As I was shaving with the Slim I won in the Monty Hall PIF this morning, it occurred to me that I have WAY too much shaving gear. So much, I don't need it. I don't have nearly as much as some, but I'm a minimalist who prefers a handful of items that work well, not a collector. So, within the span of 4 heartbeats I looked around the den while shaving and saw a number of quality items that should find their way to a new home. Hopefully to someone who will enjoy them and then possibly pass them (or other gear) along in their own PIF one day. Please read this ENTIRE post including ALL the rules.

    It's not much, but at the same time I think it's quite a bit. Along with what you see in the pic, I reserve the right to send some other things I may have on hand as well. Anything could happen, life is random and chaotic.

    What we have here is:

    1. A genuine Plisson L'Occitane synthetic brush. Used it about 4 times before I realized I am no fan of synthetic brushes.
    2. A GEM FeatherWeight SE Razor. Who knows how many times this was used or by whom. I believe this was the razor Charles Manson used for years, before passing it along to Saddam Hussein, who passed it on to Bernie Madoff who passed it on to me as part of my refund for him stealing my millions.
    3. 10 Sharks!
    4. 10 Voskhods!
    5. 4 SE blades!
    6. A travel sized tube of Institut Karite. This was from @Bama Samurai 's round of soap reviews. Used only about 4-5 times.
    7. A travel sized tube of CO Bigelow's shaving cream. AKA Proraso Green.

    Rules:
    1. CONUS only. Sorry my European friends. :(
    2. You have to be a regular contributing member. Let's say 100 decent posts. I'm not going to go search and read all of your posts to make sure they're 'decent'. This is just the thing that basically is saying if you're some guy who signed up to surf PIF's, you can't join. This is for people who have been contributing and will continue to contribute to the forums here.
    3. It ends next Sunday at 8p. I will take the list of names and figure out a way to pick a random winner.
    4. As promised in an earlier thread somewhere, @PLANofMAN and @cmorris357 will each get an extra entry should they sign up for this.
    5. There is no need to post any pics, but at the same time you are certainly not discouraged from doing so.
    6. Being that it's Thanksgiving week and I'm doing this PIF for being so grateful for all that I've got, you may want to write a few sentences about what you're grateful for too.
    7. Just say you're in.

    That's it. Good luck!

    I'm in for the Plisson. If I win I will take the Plisson, and add a Schick Krona (user grade) and a Simply Beautiful Pure Badger brush to what is left, and re Piff (CONUS) as soon as I can afford it.

    I'm so thankful for the incredible people on TSD. You have all been extremely supportive, and you have all became my family away from home. I have met some of the best people within this little community. I am also thankful for my Fiancé, she has been my rock, and always there for me. There is so many more I could list, but I would hate to bore you all.

    Thank you!

    I'm extremely thankful for having found a way to turn a chore into a joy. 40 some years of electric and cart shaving turned into this, once I found TSD...and only because of the quality of people here.
    Thanks all!
