I usually keep a backup of my stuff. Rarely, do I keep more than one.
 
Nope, Too expensive.
If the particular soap or cream was out of production, that's a different story all together.
 
I'm still trying new things, so there is no point in picking up more than one....yet. If it counts I do have a T&F 1805 cream in my den and one at my girlfriends that I use on weekends, but I dont think that counts since I dont really have access to both at once.
 
The only backups I've invested in are of the original Erasmic sticks. This was done back when the refomulation to non-tallow got around. But, now they're back to the original tallowy goodness.
 
Twenty odd pucks of Williams. About two dozen VdH, because I could get it in 12 packs on Amazon. Three tubes of Bigelow/Proraso. Two each Palmolive and Arko shave sticks. And I think I have another tube of Musgo.

Other than that, no backups.

Man, with all the different soaps I have I can't even justify having one of each let alone backups.
 
I do. I don't use any soaps or creams that I can source locally, so when I order online I'll order 2 or 3 at once to save on shipping later.

When its something of short supply that I like I tend to stock up

QED Wild Rose: I belive i still have 4 jars
Coates Tea Tree: 2 jars
Coates L.E.: 2 Jars
Coates Almond: 3 jars
T&H Rose Cream: 3 Jars

Still need to stock up on Tabac
 
I consider my entire rotation to be a backup, since I have so many different things I can use in case I run out of something. Not that I'm going to run out of anything anytime soon.

But the things I do have stockpiled (all new and untouched) are:

2 pucks of L'Occitane Cade.
5 bottles of Bigelow's #1200 ASB.
3 tubes of C&E Sweet Almond Oil cream.
2 pucks of C&E Sweet Almond Oil soap.
1 carton of Feather blades (250 count.)
1 big tube of Bigelow Proraso.
1 Tabac Luxury Bath Soap.
1 stick of Irisch Moos
2 sticks of LaToja
1 tube of LaToja cream.
1 stick of Arko.
1 stick of Erasmic.

Should we start a thread about who has a shave den at their girlfriend's place? That'd put the underwear drawer to shame!
 
Proraso and Bigelow. I've been giving away the stuff I get on sale, but I still have these two tubes under the sink.
 
Still new and plenty out there to try... but, I do buy multiples when on sale and I can get a good deal...

...like buying extra to fill out an order to get free shipping (rather buy and extra $18 of product and get free shipping then pay $14 just for shipping alone). or

...even though I never tried it, I bought multiple tubes of CO Bigelow just to get the Buy One, Get One Free and minimum to use the free shipping or $10 off coupons:)

...also a sucker for buying multiple razors from other members on B/S/T when there a discount for buying more than one (you know, the take $2 each additional razor or I can ship upt to 4 in one box, so no additional shipping).

I still haven't gone through one whole specific tube/stick/puck yet to go to a second one:)
