Grab bag

Well Mike....I did do the process of elimination and see that you didnt receive the box of goodies so it wasnt you. Omegapd and Truckman were my obvious picks but they didnt get the box either...... Its still a mystery! I do know that the shipping will buy you about 75 of those little suckers though

Pam,
Thanks but no thanks It would cost more in shipping than the things worth

 

I've got a tube of burt's bees cream I'd toss in for free

 

Nah, it wasn't me. I prefer the Gillette disposables, or, better yet, the latest multi-blade monstrosity!!!!!:happy102

I could pick you up some if you needed them, though! It's the least I could do for all the goodies you've given me in Mafia Wars - and maybe I could find some Coates Lime to include with them!happy102

Now, I still don't know if we could rule out Matt/Truckman. He's a shifty character. Anybody who appreciates industrial music and New Order/Joy Division has got to be viewed with an eye of skepticism!:bounce015

 

Curses....foiled again! :happy102 :happy102 :happy102


Since I'm busted......I drove down to Atlanta (Monster soda/Red Bull/No-doze makes for a strange trip indeed!), pulled the box off Shawn's porch, carefully slit the tape so as to not damage the label to keep him unawares, slid in the disposable, retaped the box and replaced it on his porch, then drove home (still all highed up from the drive down!) Oh, yeah, on my way home I swung through Omega to pick up some cream and all I got was a lousy speeding ticket!!! Those damned Omega PD cops!!! :happy102 :happy102 :happy102

 

If you were telling the truth, you wouldn't have told us. Unless, of course, you knew we wouldn't believe the truth even if you told it to us.

 

Sorry, Truckie. This time the lisp threw me off and I didn't recognize you until after I wrote the ticket. Can't take it back then.

I hope you found my sources down there for hard to find creams...if not, PM me and I'll set it right. He may be on vacation right now, though, in Porto Maerto.

 

Cool Pam, Looks like an interesting mix. I am still sorting stuff to figure out what we are going to put in. Should be interesting as there are 3 of us that are going to go through it. LOL

 

Absolutely!! Makes perfect sense.

As the governator once said, "Ah'll be bock"

 

5 little brushes - I took one and it's much better than it looks
3 Gem SE razors - Unless you tried and didn't like a SE, I starting learning a Micromatic, but I'm traveling too much for a few months so I'll try again when things slow down
1 T&H Limes - wish the box had this when I got it
1 Nivea AS Balm - I can't use balms, that's why I put it in - but highly regarded
1 TSD Subzero - TSD soap is great, I can't do menthol lather or it wouldn't still be there
1 Ogallala limes and peppercorn AS - I've been wanting to try this

Seems like lots of disappointment. But from MsBlackwolf's list, the stuff above all looks worth taking to me. Not sure if some of these are gone, but it's not like the box has nothing but junk (though it has some to be sure).

 

Ya cheapskate! The LEAST you could have done was put a whole bag of bics in there!

 

there's a few gems in the box. I grabbed one of those lil brushes first thing.

 

Allll rightyyyyy
I grabbed some stuff (old straight razor, MB SS and the replated bar handle) and added:
8 bxs Astra blades
1 Bar Handle New razor
1 C&E Sienna refill puck
1 Palmolive shave stick
2 bxs Feather DE blades
10 Pella SE blades
Ogallala Bay Rum SS
St Charles Cirtus AS splash
2 bags of assorted SC samples (AOS, TOBS, C&E, ETC)

It leaves the land of Cow Sh*t and Chease Heads and heads out to NY tomorrow!

 

Sounds good Pam. I look forward to catching it at this end and adding to the bounty.

 

I tossed in a couple of surprises. Don't feel like editing the above lists. Maybe take a pic when the box gets out to you.

 

I can do that, If I get it before the Weekend I can have JoeDJr take the pics. He seems to be the official photographer here.

 

Nice contribution! Sure beats the hell out of the single bic:happy102 Out of curiosity can we get a box weigh in? Just curious

 

I'll have a weight after I mail it out tomorrow.

 

Very nice contributions ! ... wish I was after you.. (Okay everyone .. the bar is officially raised ! )

 

Up to this point, the box value was increasing very slowly. Looks like you've given it a kick-start (Looks like you put in about twice the value to took). I wish I had that much "extra" sitting around. I've also noticed most, if not all of the valuable (as in worth at least $5) stuff from when I sent out the box is gone and replaced with similar value items. The exceptions are the Staight you took, and the ~$6 Nivea ASB I added (surprised it's still there). Thanks for adding so much value to this fun little project.

 

Well played, Falcon lady.
