Go to the "freebies" page and sign up for a PIF (pay it forward). A pif gives free items away...often soaps.
By the way my friends, I haven't sold any of these soaps. I just decided that I can no longer keep such a huge stash so I decided to give away the majority. From the non-Stirling soaps remaining I'll have to throw away a lot because they're used - can't give away used stuff. I'll keep certain ones here for myself because I still enjoy them now and then.
That's not a bad thing. It lets you develop the skills and techniques needed without the distraction of too many changes. What is your set up? Wait! Don't answer here... Stop by The Welcome Center and make your introduction. Then visit The Newbie Giveaway for a chance at Fabulous Prizes ( Read the rules to be sure you qualify). If you are looking for tips, tricks, pointers, advice, opinions, or actual Information - I'd invite you to look into The 30 Day Rule/Focus Group.

I have a mostly used up Deluxe VDH, four pucks of Williams (one in the mug labeled GERMS from the Health Museum in Houston), one Palmolive stick, one bowl of Wilkinson Sword, and about six/seven sticks of ARKO left out of a case. No shaving cream or gel left (canned). No shaving creams at all. I guess I make up for my lack of SAD with my RAD.
I have 10 soaps (3 are the same brand different scents) and 2 creams Catie's Bubbles Irish coffee Razorock xXx TBG Smolder Proraso Red Arko Stick Col Conk Bay Rum, lime, and Almond Williams VDH Luxury Creamo Cooling Dr Carvers Pillowy Lather from DSC Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I started by using Dove soap ... it works, but I was happy when I bought a few samples from Stirling. Haven't ventured to far from them. Yes, they're that good! Margaritas in the Arctic Lime Ozark Mountain Gin and Tonic All excellent to try and samples are very affordable.
I was at about 30 plus or minus. Just got back from a 30 day coast to coast road trip. Stopped at Maggard's in Michigan for their wet shaving meet up on May 13. Bought a few more items including more soap (see photo). Have no idea how many soaps I have now. As I have said before - when it compares to my other hobbies - shaving is pretty minor. If I don't indulge now - when will I? Ain't getting any younger.
I got rid of twenty more soaps this morning. Old ones that I threw away. My remaining stash consists of these non-Stirling soaps : 1x Razorock One X 1x Soap Smooth Frozen Cranberry 1x Proraso Green 2x Arko sticks 1x Erasmic bowl 1x Tabac stick A couple of other things and that's it!
