April 2024 Gentlemanly Restraint Until Month End (GRUME)

[geneaut]

Thanks for letting me participate, even if I failed at the end. I’m still happy with the process because even just making one purchase is a step in the right direction for me.

GRUMEing till the end of the month this time!

Thanks to all the gentlemen for the nice experience and the wonderful pictures of our shaving hobby.

This was my last shave in April:

- Rex Ambassador XL
- Mühle Sophist STB
- King C. Gillette Razor Blades

I did a wonderful 6 WTG, 3 ATG, 3 cleanup that resulted in a BBS-.

Have a great start into May 2024 everyone!

May 2024 Gentlemanly Restraint Until Month End (GRUME)

This restraint is for May 1-31, 2024. If you're seeing this late and you've made no purchases in the Restraint Month, feel free to jump in. Registration closes on the 15th. Have what you need and use what you have. That is our definition of "Restraint". The idea is to use, learn about and enjoy...

Much appreciated!

I'm out. A seller on eBay offered me these at a very nice price, and the time period didn't extend to the end of the month.

Ah! Thank you! Missed it!

Do we have to do anything for a roll call, or is it just informational?

As @Jayson74 said, it's just a check-in. Really, the Roll Call is a reminder to people to let us know where they are at with GRUME, those most people are pretty vocal in the thread, anyway.
