What are you anxiously waiting to be delivered ???

I just ordered a StarCraft brush from PAA. At the price point, I'll be happy with adequate, but I really like the looks of it, and I've certainly been happy with the other stuff I've bought from PAA. Their CK-6 base is superb, imo. And Atomic Age Bay Rum is hands down my favorite Bay Rum.

I have a tub of Mike's Natural Coconut enroute. I really like Mike's soap performance and hope this scent is a slam dunk for the warm weather coming soon.

Unfortunately, it might be traveling by foot, or the original Pony Express, as it was ordered on May 5th, departed the Missouri post office to arrive in Illinois 5 days later.

This brings me to my question here... there haven't been any drastic changes to geography, have there? I mean, Missouri and Illinois are neighbors still? They didn't move any of them? Lol.

Nonetheless, it's now somewhere in Massachusetts now, so we're getting closer.

All joking aside... the post office is hurting. I hope they can get some sort of bailout soon.
 
Stirling Soap order, lasted just over a month since my last order even though I told my wife I'd try and lady 6 months lol. Shave soap samples of Margaritas in the Arctic, Orange Chill, Lime and Queen of Hearts (all new scents for me). Aftershave samples of black cherry, Margaritas in the Arctic, iced pineapple, vanilla sandalwood. Couple bars of facial soap which has really helped my complexion, dang adult acne. Oh and Island Man bar soap.

... and now they're down to $10!?! So I ordered another two boxes.

That means, by time they arrive, I'll have about 450 BICs? That works for me.

Yeah, I do like them. I'm back and forth as to which is my favorites... But I use BIC, Gillette 7 o'clock Black, and Gillette Nacet.

As far as I know, BIC blades have been around for a long time. They're made in Greece, I believe. It is a smooth blade, for me. Their big problem, which I've seen a lot, is the quality control is bad at BIC. A lot of complaints of bad batches, even from people who have sworn by them. I haven't got any yet, thankfully.

I have a Vector and a General v2 on their way this week. Have some other miscellaneous shaving stuff- but most looking forward to these razors. I just crossed over from DE razors. I have a renewed passion for shaving again.
