I am the brother of the forum member Dave in KY. Growing up Dave and I shared a bathroom used by 8 siblings and yes, as he stated in one of his earlier posts, occasionally I would misappropriate product from his "can of goo"
About a year ago Dave gave me a vintage adjustable Gillette slim in my birth year. I told him that I think about him everytime I shave and that it was such a thoughtful gift that I too have given one to a friend. Since then Dave has sent me various soaps, one was the YETI SNOT which he sent because I like mentholated stuff. As some of you may be aware, there were supply/logistical issues aquiring this soap. While I liked the menthol it lathered terribly to the point of being almost unusable, that is until one day while shopping with the wife at a TJMaxx when I came across this large 8.49 ounce tub of shaving cream for $4.99. By combining this with the water like consistency of the YETI SNOT it yielded a very satisfying and chilly lather.
I remember several years ago overhearing Dave telling a mutual friend, "I can't take it Rick. Whenever we go out with them either for food or entertainment Tim always has some coupon or discount where he is getting 50% off and I'm stuck paying full price! "
At this point you might be saying to yourself, "Wow! Kentucky Dave is right his brother is a tightwad! " to which I would proudly respond...That's right I am THE FRUGAL BROTHER.
