I'm killing the end of 2015 before NB '16... three brushes, a razor, an EdT on the way. Wow, fortunately only 4 days to go.
I've been stocking up on a few consumables so I won't have to buy anything. I don't know if I'm ready, but im willing and able!
I had some Christmas cash (had being the essential word here; I'm an addict) so I binged before the deadline. I ordered an EJ Chatsworth, TOBS Jermyn Street Collection Pre-Shave Gel and another 100 Astra SP's. I'm ready.
Spud, this is not binging...this is just good planning. You must have been a Boy Scout..."Always be prepared"!
The only items I may be purchasing would be supplies for restorations I currently have....but who am I kidding. I'll probably be the first to cave once I see a nice restore project presented. I wish you luck and ask that you give yourself a bit of grace when you fall. Cheers, Eric
Just got the last of my goodies for the next year. Purchased the last Shave Revolution Evolution synthetic brush and got a tub of Bourbon Room SS (more like a cream). So I think I"m ready.
Just picked up the 26mm Stirling brush, along with a couple of soaps, a tub of Soapy Bathman Irish Waterfall and Catie's Bubbles Celtic Knot. I'm trying to get in a trip to WSP before the new year, but if not I should be good now. The only thing I really wanted to try that will now have to wait is a Shavecraft Tech. Next year.
Found the secret box of blades hidden in a dark closet, so I am set with nearly 400 blades for the year - lets see - 2 blades per week times 52 weeks = 104 blades, so I ought to be good until mid to late 2018.
I've placed an Arko order. And with @Drygulch as witness, tendered payment for a strop to be delivered in early January. It's on.
Astra and Rapira Super Stainless primarily but also have Voskhod, Rapira Lux, Feather, Shark and a few others.
Today I purchased a large tub of Noxema Classic...and I believe that is it! I have everything I need. Now I just need willpower and resolve and I should be fine.
