Hello my fellow SLY brothers,
I have a funny but TRUE story to share with all of you. As many of you know I am an avid HeadBlade user and I like to promote their product every chance I get, many of you also know that I support HeadBlade so much that I have their logo tattooed on the back of my glistening dome!!
So here's the story, last night on my way home I had to stop at my local Shoppers Drugmart to pick up some new body wash, and as always whenever I am there I cannot help but visit the shavin section just to see what new products the might have in stock. So after browsing around the store for a while I finnaly grabed my body wash and a box of chocolates (damn impulse items) and went throught the check out to pay for my purchase. As I was leaving the store those damned security sensors started beeping away, so I turned around went back to the check out to see what the problem may be. The cashier held on to my bag as I walked through the sensor again only to have it go off again. I returned to the register where the store manager shows up and politley asks me to empty my coat pockets. Not thinking as I reached into my right pocket I realized what might have been setting off the security sensor. I pulled from my pocket a brand new unopend package containing a HeadBlade classic razzor, the store manager looked at me and said aha please come with me sir!!! I said wait I can explain this it's not what you think, she told me that I could explain it to security and to the police! I politley told her to hold on and I continued to empty my pockets where I pulled out my New S4, my new FaceBlade and some samples of the the HeadWipes along with HeadBlade cards and stickers.
Now she is looking at me kind of funny and allowed me to now explain. I pointed out to her that although they do carry a few HeadBlade products, they do not sell what I have in my posession. I then went on to point out the fact that I have their logo tattoed on the back of my head and if I was steeling from this store how come all of the products I have on me they do not sell? (They only sell the HeadBlade Sport, HeadSlick and HeadLube Matte) that is it! Theen I went on to explain that I am a HeadBlade Affilliate thus the reason for the cards with my personal discount code on the back of them. By this time there were two other Sly customers in the store watching what is happening and listening to me explain about the HeadBlade product line, the last thing that I said to her to further prove my innosence is that if she wanted to go out to my van and I will remain in the store she could look on my dash board where she will find a HeaBlade zippered case with more samples in it and more cards and stickers. She was finnaly convinced that I was not steeling from her store (after she checked the barcodes on my stuff) to see if it matched anything in her store, which they did not, and she let me go. But the two curious Sly fellows that were watching and listening came up to me and asked me to tell them about the HeadBlade so I did, and after I gave them a couple of samples and my discount cards for ordering what they cant buy in Shoppers online, they both walked out with a new HeadBlade Sport and a bottle of HeadSlick in hand. By the way the original cashier tha cashed me out also got a couple of samples for her husband who shaves his head also and she said before she goes home she will pick up a Sport razzor as well.
Finnaly I did also mention to all of them about this wondeful forum where they can learn about other products and get tips for shaving and support for their decission to go Sly if needed. Now I really need to get some SBG cards.

I am a big HeadBlader, but you put me to shame. You are truly a FANatic. I would have been freakin' big time. I guess next time you'll be more careful when you go in 'ARMED and DANGEROUSly slick.' Maybe you could get a concealed carry permit for the HeadBlade.

Great story, Tom! The SBG cards are a good idea, as well.

Tom,
All I can say is WOW! I am an avid HeadBlade fanatic! Anything and everything HB for me, though I haven't gone so far as to tattoo their logo on my pate.
Excellent post.
