    Question Acquisitions Monday Mar 06 - Sunday Mar 12

    Well the weather turned mild down here in sunny Oklahoma. Great opportunity for shopping for new shaving kit! How's the weather in your neck of the woods?
    Best regards,
    Ron

    Smile special thanks to a great friend and a gentleman

    well, a nice parcel from Europe came and what was in it:
    1. a tube of Arko Cool shaving cream
    2. a tube of Arko Commando shaving cream
    3. a tube of Arko Moist shaving cream
    4. a tube of Arko Sensitive shaving cream
    5. a jar of Olivia Bay Rum shaving cream
    6. 2 Arko shaving soap sticks
    7. a bottle of Arko Commando aftershave/cologne

    Now, I can say that I'll be shaving in delight and heavenly pleasure for a long, long time!

    Not shaving related, but I did receive a VHS copy of "FM". It's not available on DVD.

    SR122, 4 1/2", 22mm knot pure badger Savile Row brush from QED.

    Musgo Real AS (w/ cork label) from fellow forum member.

    Oh yeah, Richard, I'm set for a while, and I'm in shaving heaven! I think I have enough Arko stuff to last at least a year and change. You sure don't need a lot to lather up with whether it's the soap bar, or any of the creams! That's the beauty of this stuff.

    Talking oh my! before I forget!

    Richard, I forgot to mention, I also bought a bottle of Barber Salon aftershave today, with the cork stopper. Man, this stuff smells great.

    Default Sample Containers Galore

    Not in and of itself an exciting Score, but I got a huge box of empty sample containers today. We are ready to begin putting together the Fragrance Train, plus I have containers to share shave creams with, etc. Also thru in some nice atomizers for myself.

    Hey Scotto, which atomizer bottles did you get? I was planning on getting some eventually. I wanted to try the roll-on bottle.
