I'm sure someone else already said it. Stop buying new soaps. It's incredibly easy to use up your old stock when you stop feeding the furnace. Best advice I gave myself ever.
This is novel idea. I didn't see it mentioned. It's not even an option in the poll.I'm sure someone else already said it. Stop buying new soaps. It's incredibly easy to use up your old stock when you stop feeding the furnace. Best advice I gave myself ever.

Today, this weirdo just finished a tub of Mr. Fine’s Lavender soap.
Still 3017’ing after all these years.
I will also point out that 3017 treatment is good for erectile dysfunction.

If you stop buying soap, wouldn't you use up your stock in the same amount of time regardless of the order or frequency of using each soap? The advantage of 'one until done' is that you reduce the number of containers in your stock as you go. Kind of a mark in time or verification of progress.
I'm down to one soap, so these high class problems don't apply to me.
Okay, so by the strict definition I guess I don't always finish my soaps one at a time. My personal goal is toYou're not 3017ing unless you're using only the one soap.
That's like saying "I'm monogamous with my wife and both of my girlfriends"
I'd say that if you're reading this thread you are part of the 3017 club. I'm not much of a soap guy and I think that I've read every post. Pretty earl on, 2014 or so, I read the thread from the beginning and from then on I just kept up.Okay, so by the strict definition I guess I don't always finish my soaps one at a time. My personal goal is to3017finish at least 3 soaps in a calendar year. That's okay by me if I'm not a member of the 3017 club. As long as I'm able to deplete my stock over time, I'll be okay with my process. I just see it all as different paths to the same destination.
It's a great thread. I just wish I had found it earlier as it could have saved me a lot of money... or at least given me a clear warning of how quickly acquiring soaps can get out of control. But that's okay. I'm set unless some of them eventually go bad. But that's just wishful thinking on my partI'd say that if you're reading this thread you are part of the 3017 club.

Wait. Who am I kidding? I have twelve pucks of Haslinger, twelve sticks of Arko, six tubs of Stirling, four jars of RazoRock (Dead Sea, SMdF, and Unlabeled), several tubes of Proraso, and a whole lot more. I may never get anywhere close to twenty soaps anytime soon. Oh well, it was nice to dream. And I apologize for briefly hijacking the thread.Yep, I think 20 is a respectable number... That's a 5-year supply and a worthwhile goal for me.
Anything in the soft heart base is going to get that circle of death in no time at all. I dont think B&M intended for that, but that's the soap and it is glorious, that is, unless you want your money's worth. His modified soft heart is harder and I think all the new release soaps from now on are in that base. Not sure when he plans to officially announce the new base and switch from excelsior to ???.Part of Barrister and Mann’s genius is that their softheart is easy to use. I started a new tub of Eigengrau in Jan. and by Apr. it had a decent sized bald spot with just a couple of uses a week. Mikes coconut took a year to make a dent. As for MdC it will outlast anyone. Steer clear of the triple milled stuff if you want to see progress. My goal is to run out 2 or 3 tubs this summer - they are all balding. I’m using them almost exclusively. It’s very existential but still an enjoyable aspect of the hobby - there’s a real feeling of accomplishment. After all I know that I cannot possibly wear out a brush.
