Ordering wet shaving supplies is like manic depression. Nothing like the expectation as those days tick off and the package nears. Then...the DAY. The day you go to your mailbox or look out onto the porch and THERE it is At first glance - how did they get ALL that cream, the soap, the A/S, the blades, etc. all into that little box? Never mind, if they were out of stock on something and the order is incomplete, you'll have something else to wait for over the next week or so. You pick it up and...damn, it DOES feel heavy. Maybe it IS all in there? Then you slit it open carefully so as to not to damage any of the sacred contents. It's ALL there, and you can't wait to open each jar and bottle just to smell them - especially if some are ones you haven't tried yet. (at this point you may emit a cackle similar to a Batman villain)
Before depression sets in, though, there is one more exhilarating step left - the placing of the items in the bathroom. Which ones to hide away for now in a drawer and which ones get the call to go up front and take their place on the counter? In what order to place them and which goes on top or in front of which others? Then the impending cloud of doom begins to settle in as soon as you finalize the correct set-up....
It's Shaver's Remorse. How many more weeks or months must you wait till you can justify another purchase? You try to fend off the empty feeling by grabbing a calendar and calculating just how long that will be? After all, if a discount pops up on your shaving website of choice you'll have to buy something else BEFORE you actually need it, right? Or there's always the possibility that a certain product will go out of stock temporarily or even (gasp) FOREVER What would you do if you didn't have EXTRA?
and so it goes...
