Gents,
Today, April 29[SUP]th[/SUP], is my 37[SUP]th[/SUP] birthday.
To celebrate with all my friends here at B&B, Im hosting this PIF. The fun part is that this is a Choose your own PIF. I will be giving away 3 complete sets of shaving gear. For each category (razor, brush, soap, cream, aftershave) there will be a selection of items to choose from. The first winner will make their selections, then the second winner will get to pick from what is left, and so on. For most categories, there will be more than 3 choices, so the third PIF recipient will still have some choices.
Please read this entire post BEFORE entering this PIF, I hate when people dont follow directions.
The first PIF will be given to an Active Duty service member.
The second PIF will be given to a Student.
The third PIF is open to everyone else.
These PIFs are open to all B&B members, worldwide.
To qualify for the PIF, you must do the following. If you do not, you will not be entered, and I will not prompt you to resubmit, so do it right the first time.
1) Indicate what category you fall under: Active Duty, Student, or Everyone Else. (If you are Active Duty AND a Student you qualify for BOTH!)
2) Indicate your location:
a) Active duty: Current duty station
b) Students: Name of school you attend
c) Everyone else: Name of the city you reside in
3) Indicate your age:
4) Guess what After Shave I used this morning: (Hint, it's one of my favorites)
Thats it, pretty simple. There are three opportunities for Bonus Entries (i.e. getting your name thrown in the hat twice).
A) If you guessed correctly on my after shave question.
B) If your birthday is the same day as mine: April 29[SUP]th[/SUP]. If it is, just tack on a #5 to the above list and let me know. But, I will be checking the B&B calendar to verify, so make sure your birthday is updated in your profile.
C) The last opportunity is a secret, and I will only reveal what it is AFTER the PIF is closed.
This PIF will be open for 2 Weeks, and will close at the end of the day on 13 May 2013. Do not enter after the 13th.

Razors:
GEM 1912 Single Edge, Gillette 40s style Superspeed, Gillette Flare-Tip Superspeed, SABI 3 piece razor.
