Title: New hobby :x!
Post by: DogStar Guy on May 15, 2009, 02:08:46 PM
My newest hobby, some might say mild obsession,
is looking at the various shaving products at any store I go into.

I am looking for products well thought of here.
And for the products at bargain prices.

I don't think this will last too ling because I will amass a great deal of product.
And be covered for a long time to come.

But it is better than drugs and booze!

Eric

I think that most guys here will confirm that we do the same.  I look all the time.  In fact, I'm stopping at Walgreens on the way home tonight.  I'll stop in the shaving aisle, for sure.

I am starting to get the look when I walk into CVS all the time to check out their stuff.  It has gotten to the point where the sales clerk will say to me...Sorry Tim, nothing new today...lol

I often check out the shaving stuff in drugstores because so few of the products we headshavers are interested are carried many places.  So I end up getting one thing from one place and something else from another place.  CVS will have one essential, Riteaid another, etc.

Baldguys unite and demand that stores stock what we want.  :x!

This is definitely what I am finding as well.

Hey Eric, it's so sad to see!! Another one bites the dust!! You've got it too????   Heck, I'm to the point that I'll check when I'm in a hardware store!

As to what Tim is doing with his Sales Clerk??? I don't want to know!!

Sorry to hear the illness has hit you so soon!!

You guys are sooooo lucky. Headblade is not stocked in any UK stores. We have to order online. And BaldGuyz used to be stocked by Boots (our biggest High street pharmacy chain), and they have stopped it too  :Xo!

No way was baldguys stocked in Boots?!?! I am finding I have to check out the shaving isle, I have no idea why but I am just drawn there!!

Sorry to highjack but S.A, there is a new shaving brand in ASDA called "Somersets" http://www.somersets.com/index.php - I have the extra sensitive shave gel and the original shave oil, mix the two together and not only do you get a real tingly head but you get the smoothest shave around!! Only downside is you don't get any lather, which can be a bit wierd but I got used to it and now I am hooked!!! Best of all its cheap!!

Forgive me Father for I have sinned also. I stopped at my local Walgreens and spent too much time in the shaving isle lusting after some new HeadBlade products I have yet to try. I know it was wrong but I just couldn't stop myself - those beautiful yellow curves, ooohhh my!!!  >:D

I'm also guilty of drifting to the men's shaving aisle while the wife checks out all those "feminine" products.
