After the holiday of excess, are you ready to commit to less excess in 2015? If so, read on!
This sabbatical won't be for those with easy access to good B&M type shaving item stores. If you live near West Coast Shaving, or any of the other apothecaries <cough>Merz<cough> that have a large selection, or if the AoS store in the mall tempts you badly, and you feel the need to curb your purchasing AD's, this is NOT the sabbatical you are looking for. This will be a no exceptions sabbatical, so if you are looking to be able to buy that one magic unicorn you have been searching years to find, and stay in the sabbatical, this also not the sabbatical you are looking for.
For the rest of us, the guidelines are simple...
No online purchases of shaving products, items, and shaving related accessories during the sabbatical period. This includes using gift cards/gift certificates online for said shaving related items.
The sabbatical period is 12:00am Jan 1, 2015 to 11:59pm December 31, 2015.
If a member is coming off of the 2014 sabbatical, the 2015 sabbatical period for them will be 11:59pm January 7, 2015 to 11:59pm December 31, 2015.
Trading online is allowed, so long as the sabbatican does not put in any money as part of the trade, but paying shipping for your half of the trade is allowed.
The annual Sue Moore auction is exempt. Bidding and winning items in that do not knock you from the sabbatical.
B&B LE items are exempt.
B&B Contributions are exempt.
Facial hair care/maintenance type product is exempt from the sabbatical, since it's not shaving or shaving related. So, Beard/mustache wax, beard oil/balm/wash do not break the sabbatical. If the sabbatican is picking up mustache wax to work on an epic handlebar 'stache, pictures and progress updates are required!
So, if this generates enough interest of people to join, we'll all do this, and save some money to spend on other AD's... er, I mean, to buy our significant others a nice gift for next year's holidays.
Sign up below, I'll do my best at compiling and keeping a list of who's in, and all that fun stuff. lol
