Bigelow

[CaptainRaven40]

I took part in the buy 2 get 1 free plus the 30% discount of the 5 oz bottles. I received them expecting the new formula, but I was surprised that it was the old formula. Made me happy. I am thinking of buying some more. Not sure yet. I mean you can never have too much cream . Anyway I was wondering who all took part in this deal? I know I did and am thinking of more. May think about buying something else though. I mean I have 6 tubes of Bigelow and a 500ml tube of old formula proraso. Maybe I am set for a while? Should I take the plunge and get some more? Anyone have any suggestions if I don't on what I could get next? Seems like I am building up a stock for the zombie take over or something lol. People may be dying and infected, but I am damn sure going to get a good shave!!!

I personally like to have a diversified portfolio so to speak. Looks like you are invested pretty heavily in the Proraso, maybe a few more soaps/ creams of other varieties. Some suggestions would be the Razorock line, VDH Luxury if you are looking for low cost, AOS makes excellent creams IMO, and if you would like to take a look at some of the artisan vendors here on B&B I would check out Mike's Natural Soaps or Mystic waters.

I honestly don't even use proraso that much lol. I just saw the great deal and jumped on it. I just received the T&H sampler and a sampler from queen charlotte soaps. I also have some TOBS that I use. I have some MB soap I use. Also some VDH deluxe glycerin soap I add in the mix. I know I am missing some stuff. I do have a variety of things. I love it all. Thank you for the suggestions because I am always looking for something new!

I've never tried the stuff (or proraso... I'm still new), but may go for this deal - how'd you get the extra 30% off?

 

[Nosduj]

I just ordered a six pack of these, combined with the wifes 20% off coupon, so I basically got free shipping, good deal.

Anyone know when B&BW is going to stock the new Proraso? I have 1/2 a tube of the old stuff and would like to know that they are getting the new formulations soon. I'd much rather go to my local store and get 4 tubes for less than 20 than order online.

 

[Nosduj]

I dont know that they ever will, the one near me never has it in stock, only the can goo and lotions. Whenever they get a case in I'm on the call list lol.

 

[sir-nix-alot]

I just went to the Bigalow site and they have new formula Proraso... Hmmmm

This is the code that was told to me and it gave me 30% off. F126497. Good luck my friend!

 

[Nick_B]

Thanks Captain, I'll give it a try!!

This code would take off 20%, not 30%, of my online order. How long would you say these three 5 oz bottles would last an average wet shaver?

if these are the only three shaving creams you use and you shave every day...i would think a couple years.

I was thinking of adding a small amount of the Bigelow cream to my VDH puck for each shave - does this make any sense? (beware I'm a total newbie).

 

[CountZer0]

Unadan I do something to that effect. I load my brush with the VDH soap then whip up the Bigelow.... works for me.
