Not counting people who bought warehouses of williams or something along those lines. I'm thinking more of soaps you want to try. So one day you went crazy and bought 10 pucks of MB soap, 5 QED sticks, all of the ogalalla soaps and every single top 20 hit (MWF, Tabac, etc...)
How much have you spent on a single soap purchase?

4 is the most pucks I've bought at one time. Some kind of psychological block prevented me from ordering more. So I waited a week for another 4 pucks.

Yeah, I do the same thing too. I spread out my purchases, for the most part. Death by a thousand cuts, instead of by guillotine, really!
$65 on a Penhaligon's Blenheim Tallow puck and wooden bowl...which I later sold on the B/S/T....
Just over $70 shipped for a bowl of Martin de Candre. Still hate myself for that... except, of course, when I'm shaving with it. 
65 for the tallow formula of Penhaligons EF in a wooden bowl. I don't regret it because it was worth every penny spent and I still ALOT left.

And here I thought that $30 for a bowl of Arlington was pricey! 
Yikes...I'm not even going to get into this...but AdP comes to mind as being up there in price...

Do not feel bad. I payed $165 for two pucks of Blenheim Bouquet, a puck of English Fern, and bowls for each and then sold all on the BST (EF was tallow first and BB was tallow fifth).

Some here have most likely payed over $100 for a bowl of Yardley
I know...why do we do that?
Rhetorical question here...I sold mine to get into straights...which I'm really enjoying now.But I do occassionally miss a nice, Tallow-fifth Blenheim experience....

Was that for the wood bowl or the glass jar? I've been looking at that myself, but was wondering how much shipping is. Granted, it is 170g so it is basically 2 pucks of Trumpers or something similar.
The bowl is pretty sweet the way the soap looks like cottage cheese in it, but not sure if it is worth the extra $
15 dollars for a 12 pack of VDH

.So far I've been sticking with my base order to start wet shaving. Definitely showing early SSAD symptoms though...every day i keep looking at my basket online and want to pull the trigger on 2 GFT pucks (Lime and Coconut), 1 Arlington, 1 Plisson, 1 Provence Sante. (~100 CAD) No bowls until i figure out what i like. I'm managing to hold back for now, telling myself there is no point until I've figured the wet shaving out a bit more. I wonder how long I'll manage to hold out...
I like to spread my purchases out over a long period of time, in a failed attempt to convince myself that I'm spending less.

...the b*st*rds!
+1 Hope to make this last until the Tallow Gods can rebless us with some proper Pens
