For my PIF, I'm putting up Irish Twins Bergamot Lime and Patchouli shaving soap in a plastic container just like Mama Bear and Mystic Water uses. I have the Irish Twins label, and I'll try to peel it off the plastic wrap and put it on the container lid.
This stuff is great. I received it in a PIF about a month ago and used it once. It produces TONS of lather, very similar to TOBS. Very slick. Strong scent. I probably won't be using it again until the colder weather, so someone else can enjoy it until then. When Fall rolls around again, I'm going to buy another.
I'll also throw in 5 Gillette 7 O'clock Blues and maybe something else (I usually do).
Sorry for the quality of the pics. Sadly my Pentax Optio is out of commission at the moment.

The idea of the Never-Ending PIF is just that: an endless string of PIF's. If you see something on the list below that you would like to try, feel free to claim it. In return, you agree to add a PIF from your own den to the list. Use the following procedure:
1. Post in this thread saying you'd like to claim the offering
2. PM the donor of that item with your mailing info.
3. Once confirmed, re-post the list, removing the donor's name and item and adding your own. If you'd like to wait until you receive the item before offering your PIF, simply place a "?" after your name instead.
There is no limit to how often you can play, but a member may only have one outstanding PIF at a time. That is, you are ineligible to claim another PIF until someone claims yours.

I'm away for a couple hours and nothing new or claimed? There is some great stuff here, that's quite surprising.
It is pretty crazy that these great PIFs have been hanging around for so long! If the wife didn't hate bay rum, I'd have claimed CorAnd's PIF hours ago.
I know I'm tempted but I don't need any soap right now and figured I'd let someone else a chance. Besides in waiting on two pifs to show up!
.Damon. claimed my pif. updating the list.

I'll take Kooze's offering
Someday...but not today.
And the Arko is gone. We talk about Arko like we talk about Fatboy lasting more than 5 minutes on the B/S/T. Fascinating.
Cheers, Jeff

Kooze is off the list, Mr5x5 is on.
Now, let's see if the Stick of Spain is as popular as the Stick of Turkey. I already have two, if not I would have claimed instantly.

ð --- The object of shaving is shaving
La Toja stick is approximately 5000 times better than the Arko stick, just saying. Palmolive stick is up there too.
Sending PM to .damon. for la toja.... yes, I PIFed one earlier in this thread, but I've read so much about it that I've just got to give it another try...

PM sent to kaiseris for the Palmolive stick.

I'm counting on this thread surviving into perpetuity. That way I can try La Toja, Speick, and Palmolive at some point. My bathroom is full at the moment from SSAD. All in good time.
Cheers, Jeff
