So how do you deal with samples? I just realised that my sample tube of Goodfellas might sit forever in my den, because these do not qualify for soap of the month.

Thanks,

Guido

Just join the "Club". You can use soap or cream, same rules. If you finish a product part way through the month, just post it and pick a new product to use that month.

Shaving 2-3 days a week means this fabulous Saponificio Varesino soap is lasting, just saw the first hint of container bottom this week. Aroma still strong!

Gents, somehow the search engine didn’t point me to this thread, but luckily my GRUME leader pointed me in the right direction. I read the rules and as a consequence need to skip on Tabac Tuesdays and Fat Fridays, but ok. So let’s start the challenge!

March check-in
Soap: Mike’s Natural Soap Barbershop
Completions: 0
