A lot of us have enough product to outlive ourselves and to even outlive our children (@Scuttlesoap ). I've been thinking recently that I would like to take a period each year to reflect upon what I already own and enjoy, as opposed to trying to fit something new into my routine. I keep thinking that enjoying what I have without buying a bunch of new stuff for a few months will help me to focus on what I really like and weed out what I don't. So, I'm going to take three months and make no shave related purchases. This period of austerity will run from January 1st, 2022 - March 31st, 2022.

Purchases would include:
  1. blades
  2. razors
  3. creams
  4. soaps
  5. brushes
  6. knots
  7. strops
  8. aftershaves
  9. balms
  10. pre/post-shave oils
  11. talc
  12. Antique shaving related items of all kinds.
  13. Any other shaving related items not mentioned that must be purchased with money or a gift card.
Not Included:
  1. PIF winnings
  2. Competition winnings (Such as weight loss challenge)
  3. Gifts from anyone
  4. Trades
  5. purchases prior to January 1st, 2022

Would anyone else care to join me in in this quest? If so, include your name in the list below and we can support each other in enjoying what we have and saving a little money along the way as well.

I do need a caveat……I already made a commitment to two artisans for products that will be delivered in February. However, the funds were committed this quarter and as you can see - I already am starting the purge of my den…..and probably more to come - so the overall will be less and enjoying what i have…so there will be no new purchases…..

@Scuttlesoap

Brian, I think that tracks. If there is a prior commitment and I think that's fine. The point is to keep yourself from these splurges that we all get on. You know, the ones where you buy every soap ever made with a boozy citrus scent or something like that. You can do this buddy!
