No Buy July - Participant List, Rules and other stuff

My Stirling account is at the ready

 

still good, no buys, no viewing eBay, no new stuff.
though it is a little difficult not to use my new fatip Grande(trade), but I had said that I wouldn't.

still good

 

Good man, that must be difficult hahaha

 

if I fiddled around with it,I would be more tempted. I put it away.

out of sight, out of mind

I had made another trade, for an ikon, but it had not come in yet. it's been a month in the mail. IF, it comes in,I won't use it either.

 

Very strong will power hahaha

 

No shakes or DTs.

 

Still here.

 

Still here, although when August first hits I'm hitting that order button.

 

Hahaha this no buy July was just a way to justify buying more stuff in August. "I didnt buy anything in July so I can buy a lot more stuff this month" I'm gonna do no buy august and September. I don't have a lot of gear but the things I have is really good

 

trust me when I tell you
grass is just as green on both sides of the fence
the stuff you have was bought cause you wanted it. no buy July helps revisit all the things we have, instead of getting hooked up with the "gotta have its"

 

No buy July has tought me 2 things.

1. I have a lot of wants.
2. I have a lot of time to try a lot of stuff. I dont need to own it and not use it.

 

But the neighbors have Bermuda!

 

water yours it will spread

 

I've entered a bit of a beard growing agreement with some coworkers, so it looks like my shaving gear won't be used for more use than just a little clean-up here and there.

 

I may bow out today. My aunt found razors at an estate sale.

 

Let us know what happens when you're back

 

Of course. I just can't let it slip away. She said there were SHELVES

 

Take photos

 

That was the one exception to the rule that I worked out with SWMBO. The only way i could buy is if I found vintage razors in the wild at a steal of a price. The odds are too slim for you to let a good deal slip through your fingers. The ridicule won't last as long as the regret!! Pull the trigger man!

 

Thus far not a single thing purchased. We've been too busy with work to even shop so ive enjoyed my simple shaves in the hotel with my MMOC and XXX/Duke combo.
