    I'm working on it slow but sure.
    I've got a handful of Gillettes, a Kewtie, two Curvfits, and several Schicks.
    You've got a very nice collection.

    Same here. Blues all over the place, an occasional champagne, and any time I see a pink one the price is out of my league.

    I think they shave great. A SuperSpeed head with a longer handle is a great combination. I've been thinking of sending a Lady Gillette to Delta Echo and having it "manned up" a bit with a different color scheme.
    I gave one to my wife after she finally asked to try one but it's still on the shelf unused.
    Try finding one in the wild if you can otherwise the average eBay price seems to be in the $30 range.

    I have three blues, a dark, medium, and light, the pink, and the champagne in my house. Unfortunately they are not all together and I misplaced the pink and Gold along with a couple of loose krona's. I know the blues are technically the same, but the shading difference is really noticeable.

    A few soaps today ( heads up, @gorgo2 )
    I stopped by a different Dollar Tree store than the one I visited earlier this week and found the original scent Brut bar soap in two-packs.
    So I picked up three dollars worth (that's right, a six-pack) and I also decided to give the Pears Spearmint and Menthol a try even though I'm not much of a menthol guy. I figure it'll be good later this summer when the heat index becomes unbearable.
    I also decided to try a big bar of Bolero Lemon Verbena and Mint since it smelled good.
    Speaking of smell; The Brut bars were two-packed in cellophane so I could smell them but it wasn't strong until I got home and snipped open one of the two-packs and wow, the smell of Brut about knocked me down. It's classic Brut all right, and there's no doubt about it. It calmed down eventually but boy that first hit when I cut open the package really woke me up. I'm thinking tomorrow morning someone else who lives in my house is going to wake up while I'm showering and say "What the... is that smell".

    Just a heads up, the blue Pears has about zero menthol, unfotunately. Glad you found the Brut, tho, it is the right stuff!

    No. No. No. I only run out to the curb when the city has turned off the water without notice. :bath:

    Ah yes, Palmolive Cool! :)

    The Balkan version of the Italian Palmolive Menthol in the dark green tube. Both are identically-wonderful! (and COLD!)

    I remember Colgate used to have a pretty cold one I liked(in the warm/hot months).

    Very nice.
    I haven't tried the creams but I have the "classic" Palmolive shaving stick and while the scent doesn't do much for me I really like the lather I get from it :)
