bigshank Box of prov’s, a heated jacket which I’m exchanging for the vest. Also a year’s subscription to GS Pro for my simulator
Rickochet My son sent me an $100 eCard for Uber Eats. Never used Uber Eats before. I wonder if White Castle does Uber Eats? 🤔
LBlack14 CallMeAl Mom fixed me a Chess Pie For Christmas! Haven't Had One In Years! Mmmm Mmmm! Ok AL, fill me in. I like cheese and I like pie, so......???
CallMeAl LBlack14 Not Cheese..."Chess". Something made mostly in the South. Mom adds walnuts 'cause "That's the way I like it" ala KC and The Sunshine Band! https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/9090/chess-pie/
Par4QC Bravopilot For full disclosure, I will state that I was asked what I wanted. My reply was....'you've been in my place, esp. the basement, WTF would I ever need or want?' I told them sweat pants, for around the house. Only thing I could think of. But if they gave it any thought.....I'd be getting a bag of cash!! 😲😄
Walterjn I've just quit asking for anything. That said, I've received a new yeti cup( it won't replace my current cup), a nice Filson jacket that is perfect for cold weather, wool socks, and a card with $100 folded into an origami heart.
Jelopster Some new razor blades (Rapira Platinum Lux), a shave soap/after shave set, tee and 1/4 zip of my kids soccer club, a SWEET Aldi sweatshirt, a classic Casio G Shock...and COVID. Feeling better but 24th and 25 were rough
rsvman2 Jelopster I didn't know there were other classic shavers here (although KCee also at least used to be)... I also received three soaps from Sudsy Soapery and a new lather bowl that was made by a local potter.
[deleted] I got to take possession of the driver and box of chrome soft balls..at least I got what I wanted.
johnnydoom rsvman2 I didn't know there were other classic shavers here Not really into shaving, but I did purchase a basic Viking duel edged safety razor last year and have been using it for several months. Working from home often has my stubble going for a few days between shaves and those cartridge razors just clog up and quickly become useless until cleaned out with an old toothbrush. I like the double-edged razor both from a use and cost standpoint, but still just use canned shaving cream.

I got the "1988" soap and a/s from Rex Supply (Razor Emporium's house brand) It's a powder musk straight out of the 80s. Most importantly, my wife "doesn't hate it!"
[deleted] johnnydoom Safety razor is so much better. Ditched shaving foam and cartridge shaving long ago. It is getting tougher to find decent blades locally. Walmart stopped carrying them a few years ago. I found a nice deal on Amazon for Dorco blades about a year ago.
rsvman2 johnnydoom Viking makes a very spotty product. If it works for you, fine, but my experience with them has been generally bad. Better to get something more reliable. I would recommend a vintage Gillette Tech. Pretty mlch foolproof, and cheap. If you want modern, go to Italianbarber.com and look at the RazoRock razors.
Jelopster johnnydoom Not really into shaving, but I did purchase a basic Viking duel edged safety razor last year and have been using it for several months. That's what got me into wet shaving. I used my VB Chieftain for more than 2 years before trying some other razors. I've got 5 or 6 in "the den" at this point! I used creamo out of a tube for a few years too before going to the brush and soap
fatshot [deleted] johnnydoom Safety razor is so much better. Ditched shaving foam and cartridge shaving long ago. It is getting tougher to find decent blades locally. I buy my blades on Ebay…..if you have a favorite band, you can buy 100 of them at a time for as little as .15-.20 cents a blade. My current favorite is the Derby Premium…..a 100 pack will last you a helluva long time!!
Rickochet [deleted] I found a nice deal on Amazon for Dorco blades about a year ago. I have been using Dorco blades for many years. My current fav is the Dorco 6 as it is easier on my face. Dorco used to be a lot cheaper when you could order from them direct. I think you can only order from them on Amazon now.
