View Full Version : BullGoose Shaving -Pulaski Day Contest
BullGoose

Casimir Pulaski, known as the father of the American Cavalry, was a Revolutionary War Hero who came over from Poland to fight with American forces. After arriving in America, Pulaski wrote to George Washington, "I came here, where freedom is being defended, to serve it, and to live or die for it."
In 1977, the state of Illinois honored Casimir Pulaski by creating the Pulaski Day holiday which is celebrated on the first Monday in March. In order to honor my Chicago roots, I have decided to hold a Pulaski Day Drawing with the prize being a Two Band Simpson Douglas (one of only 30 made).
There are two ways to enter the contest:
1) From now until 11:59 PM on Monday, March 7th, simply write "Pulaski Day" and your B & B screen name in the comments section when you place an order with BullGoose Shaving.
2) Send in a 3x5 Index Card indicating you want to enter the Pulaski Day Contest. Be sure to include your name, mailing address, email address, and B & B screen name. The Index cards must be received by Monday, March 7th
I will use the Random List Generator (http://www.random.org/lists/) to select a winner on March 8th. The winner will be notified via email and the screen name of the winner will be posted in this thread.

Phil, this is incredible. I'm all stocked up on supplies, but I'll have to find a reason to buy something to get in on this. Thanks for the opportunity!
Phil,
Great gesture. Glad to see some of my Polish brothers of the blade reaching out. Being from Chicago you are probably familiar with Polish National Alliance. A great organization!
Cheers,
Tons

A good excuse to order now. Told SWMBO I wouldn't order anything in March. That promise lasted 3 days. Oh well, April. Phil, let us know when the Berkeleys come in.

Nicknamed my Berkeley from Phil the 'Lil Stub Dub Chub'. It has the heart of a Chubby even though it is small! :thumbup1:

Bravo Stash, Pierogies and smoked meat for everyone.
I must say I love the choclate and other goodies I get at the Polish markets around here. We have the Pulaski Skyway here in North Jersey, in fact you see it in the opening credits of the Sopranos, but never knew the history behind the name before.
Good luck to all.

My Pulaski Day order came in the mail today. Excellent service and fast shipping from Phil as always. The Portman Square (Collier) sample smells divine.

Pierogies
:drool: Mmmm... Pierogies. Meatless Fridays as a kid always meant freshly made pierogies from the Church basement for dinner.

Congrats on a great razor from a great vendor. If you can hold off on your shave get a 2 day growth and shave with the slant, its great it will just mow right thru it.

I was meaning to order some Alt Innsbruck and some Musgo Real aftershave and this was the perfect motivation.

Phil,
I am not sure what connections you have on shipping but they are awesome! I placed my order Saturday afternoon/evening and the Tabac and Coates were delivered to GA today - Monday. Unbelievable. I am beginning to think that the Aviation Blvd address means that your house is adjacent to the airport runway.
Thanks for exceptional customer service.
