Lets see what all you lucky winners got to take home from the B&B Carnival
im excited :P
So I got the post today and found a package covered in stamps and the letters USPS. I opened it to find a great selection of DE blades from West Coast Shaving:
10 Merkur Super
10 Crystal Platinum Chrome
10 Feather Hi-Stainless
10 Dorco
5 Gillette Platinum
5 Bic Chrome Platinum
5 Personna Platinum
5 Derby Extra
Wow, 60 DE blades in total. Not only enough blades for a long time, but a chance to find my perfect blade. I have only used about three different types of DE blades before so it will be very interesting to see how different blades affect my shave. Expect lots of long SOTD posts about each blade.
All this for having a funny username!
I would again like to thank all the people that organized the competition and anybody that took part. Also, thanks to the people at West Coast Shaving for my prize.
Ps. My prize got here very fast considering it went across an ocean. I wonder if I am the first to receive my prize as I am the first to post here.
PPs. I just checked West Coast Shaving and it turns out I got the Extended DE blade sampler pack. I hope nobody minds me saying this, but 60 blades for $21.50 (roughly £11.50, at time of posting) seems like great value to me.

These guys don't half mess around, do they?
Funny thing is, I hadn't read very closely and wasn't even aware I was in the running for anything on this particular one; I just liked drandall's post and said so!
What a gift pack Nancy Boy sent, too! 3 bars of soap (signature, spa, and sweetgrass), body wash, shampoo, signature and replenishing shave cream . . . wow. Thank you so much!
I think I'm going to go take a shower and play with my new toys now.![]()
Congratulations to all of the winners, Thanks to the Moderators for putting this together, and thanks to the sponsors for such great prizes!
(I posted this in the raffle thread but I'll post here as well.)
My raffle prize has arrived!
As you can see from the pix, my wife marked the package "Fragile," in response to my shouts that I had won a "major award." No, it's not a leg lamp, but some great products.
Inside the shipping box was a present with a nice bow.
Apart from the expected stash, they also included some samples: coconut oil and sandlewood shave creams (presumably Trumper's), Ritual razor rinse and post-shave balm, Kid Glove Shave Gel, Helan Vetiver & Rum shampoo and shower gel, and a whole buncha Jack Black samples: shave cream, post-shave, facial scrub, facial cleanser and beard lube.
Thanks to smallflower.com aka Merz Apothecary! Anything I don't like will be put up for grabs (for free of course) in the forum.
Just got my hands on a package from the Funniest SOTD Contest.
Awesome! European delights everywhere. The picture says it all.
Thanks B&B and Mark (paydepst) over at Superlather.com, it looks fantastic! Can't wait to try everything![]()

Congratulations to everyone!
Thanks to Truefitt & Hill for an awesome shave. I won the 1805 shave cream and 1805 after shave balm after answering some T&H trivia. Lathering with this shave cream is like laying my head on a soft pillow. Both have an subtle fresh marine scent that I catch a glimpse of throughout the day. Here's a pic I took of it for SOTD. The products came packaged like a gift, nestled very classy blue packaging paper. Thanks carnies and thanks T&H.
And all I got was rock from West Coast Shaving.![]()
Thanks to Classic Shaving and B&B for this wonderful smelling Royall Mandarin All Purpose lotion. Doug
Congrats to all the winners and kudos to all the vendors.

Wow, I can't believe I never saw this thread until today.
I wanted to join in to announce my pleasure with the B&B Carnival this year and to share with everyone my prize of a shiny, new bottle of Trumpers Bay Rum Cologne from Cambridge Chemists in NYC. I'll try to find the time to snap a picture for everyone later-on.
This was my first Trumper's product and I REALLY liked the packaging and the splash bottle top with the small, twist-off crown cap. I'd describe the contents as a very clean, classic, bay rum with cloves. It's really good stuff.
Super fun times and I can't wait for the 2009 Carnival!!!![]()
Thanks to B&B and Classicshaving.com I was able to win the 4 oz bottle of Royall Muske. I took a picture of the opposite side of the bottle than what is usually seen, as well as the inside of the paper the bottles come wrapped in. You can see that the natural spray pump has been screwed on and the crown bottle top is at the bottom of the picture.
I wore this cologne yesterday and was very pleased. The best musk I've ever worn. Head to classicshaving.com and buy a bottle of this for yourself today.
