The Great Canadian Pass Around Box 5 (Signup + the round) CTB5

[SharpieB]

Great to see rockviper again and to finally meet Balin.

I am going thru the box now. Very cool stuff, guys. Luckily for future recipients… I don’t need anything, so I am gonna pack this bugger with more stuff!

We’re gonna need a bigger box.

@linty1 is next and hopefully we can grab a coffee or drink in Richmond Hill or somewhere in the middle of us. Shipping to Calgary for him could be huge. Kidding, of course.

Looking forward to it! Some great items in there.

FWIW I was born and grew up, partly, in Toronto.

Oh, I almost forgot to post a pic of the meet-up!

You'll never find three better looking guys! Nor more intellijunt, umm, untiligent, err... smurt!

I've never been in one of these, and not really sure I fully understand. When people add stuff is it for the next person to try and keep it if they want it, adding comparable items? Or is everything testers.

There are testers of soap/cream and AS, tucks of blades, brushes, razors, etc. All kinds of stuff.

The idea is to take what you want/need but replace it with items of similar value. Maybe not 1:1, but basically don’t take a brush, a razor and soaps and just add a tuck of blades. Not that anyone at B&B would likely do that.

My first time as well. You should join in on the fun!



Correct me if I am out to lunch here guys….

@SharpieB has the answer to your question @Leverspro

You are allowed to add and/or swap. As long as you enjoy the experience, that’s what matter most.

 

[Leverspro]

Glad to see the group so far has been both handsome and intelligent. We in the West will try continue the trend.

Thanks SharpieB, I actually may have a place in the middle... all this pressure! What should I wear? What to say? Maybe keep my face always angled left as thats "my best side"? What do the kids listen to these days?! Actually that I -do- know, don't think I'm not hip to the tunes of today, what with your Tom Jones and Dave Clark Fives.

Lol..its good to see you guys enjoying the journey.

Just looking ahead, March Break... how will we handle that? Just figure in a little more time? I have a small trip myself.

... What should I wear? ....

Pants. Just sayin'

 

[Luc]

Pants. Just sayin'

No shoes, no shirt, no service!

 

[SharpieB]

I forgot to call out and thank @rockviper for bringing a TON of great items to add to the box. Vintage razors, his mad scientist aftershave creation, a couple of brushes, etc. Lots of great stuff for someone that isn’t even taking the box!

I am away March 18-25th and the week before is March Break, so maybe March 6-8-ish? We can figure it out this weekend or early next week.

@Luc, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. He's just trying to get me in trouble!

I watched the vid of Bronson on my laptop when my wife, who was sitting across the room I might add, asked, "what's that SMELL?!". Give us a heads up before you post something like that @rockviper!!!

He put so much on!

Sure, we can work it out, my March Break plans aren't solid yet (like I'm going, just dunno exact date), I think ppl understand (especially because all folks on this box are Canadian and are familiar with March Break) that it will be worked around, no worries.

Sounds good!

Make sure you dress up all nice and purdy when we meet. Nobody likes a bum!

It depends if it's a metric ton or an imperial ton...

It's surprising that he didn't catch fire also.

I tried that AS years ago and it's one of the best I had. Like Martin de Candre soap, it's awesome but difficult (and requires a lot of monies) to acquire. If you are able to try it, you should. Unless they changed the formula now... MG5 was another one... But it's now made in Vietnam and isn't the same.
