The 10 Commandments for Newbies/500 Posts PIF

Alright guys... I've dug through the various areas I store my shaving stuff and it's time to thin the herd. As you can see I had a trip or two to the dollar stores awhile back and don't have a lot of desire to use some of it or have so much I don't need it.

As you can see, however, there are a couple "higher end" items that will be shipping out as well.

Excellent PIF! Good product disbursement!

BTW to all the newbies. Some of these generic fragrances are surprisingly good. I like the Wagner Fundamentals and wear it frequently.

Let's here it for jwcarlson and his PIF!

Excellent PIF Jacob!

This is a great opportunity to get to try some wonderful products

Don't count me in (I have been VERY lucky lately), just wanted to say nice PIFs and nice buck.

You went moose hunting with a bow? Wow, brave man... not to mention one very strange looking moose I've been a city-boy now for 27 years, so my hunting days ended a long time ago

I'd like to try for the Hey, I Haven't Tried That! Pack #2 part of your most excellent PIF! Your 10 Commandments thread is spot-on too.

Holy Crap!

I would love to be in the running for the Intermediate Pack #2!!!!!

This is an incredibly generous PIF, it's things like this that keep reminding me why this is one of the best places to be, period!

By the by, NICE deer! I am jealous.

Very generous PIF!

Please put me in the running for Newbie Pack #2...or Newbie Pack #1, either one. I would like to try out the generic stuff too, & I could use a decent bowl!

Maybe I'll get lucky one of these times, lol...

Sorry, I don't have any hunting pics on this pc!

Hey those 10 Commandments were well done!

Thanks for the generous PIF! I'd be interested in Intermediate Pack #1 or Intermediate Pack #2. Thanks for counting me in!

Joe

Please consider me for intermediate pack #2. I have been dying to try the MWF. My brother was supposed to send me some for Christmas, but after a mix up with the company he ended up getting me a few puck of EJ soap... thanks for the PIF!

I'm not going to enter for the pif, but I did want to congratulate you on an extremely generous PIF even by B&B standards. Good show!

Hi there, today is my first day as a member and I must say this is a great site with great members based on what I have seen here. Please count me in for the intermediate pack #1 or the Hey, I haven't tried that pack #2
Cheers
John

John welcome aboard.

Welcome to the good ship B&B. Take a stroll on the promenade deck and enjoy the voyage.

Feel free to go over to the Hall of Fame and introduce yourself.

Always remember, relax but be vigilant when you shave!

I'll make a go at

Intermediate Pack #1:


Good stuff, huge deer, much larger than our tiny Florida deer

Please consider me for any of the newb packs. I have no hunting pics but maybe a some considerartion for some SW firearms and a M1 Garand

Absolutely awesome PIF, please enter me in for the Intermediate Pack #2, I have always been interested in trying MWF!

Great PIF and great buck!

Forgot to mention this is going to be a short turnaround. I'm going to keep it open until Thursday and ship everything on Friday.
I've got this Friday off so it works out well this way.

I must confess there was going to be one more portion of this PIF that did not pan out. Not for my lack of trying, however.
Probably would have been in the contributor only section... I bought some 1940s vintage SIR Irisch Moos EDC sometime ago and I was going to decant out 3-4 little samples for folks to try but I simply could not get it to come out of the jug more than a drop at a time. Very disappointing...

Here's a couple pictures though just as a tease...

I'm pretty upset it didn't pan out. I'd love to be able to share some as I think it's a fairly rare item. It's a big bottle too...

So generous Jacob, thanks! I would like to be considered for the Haven't Tried That! Pack #2.

Jacob,

Thanks for the super-generous GAW! Please put me in the "Hey, I Haven't Tried That! Pack #1" category. Oh yeah, damn nice deer!
