I know that @gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social, @walden@sub.wetshaving.social, and @PorkButtsNTaters666@sub.wetshaving.social have received their Old Strathcona smushes.

I just wanted to make sure that @whosgotthepudding@sub.wetshaving.social, @DaveWave94@sub.wetshaving.social, and @djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social received one as well. I can't remember if you already sent me something.

Sorry, have forgotten to message you that it arrived safely!

[โ€“] sahenders 3 points 2 months ago
[โ€“] djundjila 2 points 2 months ago

Yes, I got mine, thanks!

[โ€“] sahenders 7 points 3 months ago

Nice! Looking forward to seeing what everyone thinks of it.

[โ€“] djundjila 7 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Yayy, winner++;

@walden@sub.wetshaving.social, @gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social, @whosgotthepudding@sub.wetshaving.social, do I have your permission to share your addresses with sahenders?

I'm not pinging DaveWave94 because sahenders already knows his deets.

[โ€“] gcgallant 5 points 3 months ago

permission to share your addresses with sahenders?

Yes.

[โ€“] whosgotthepudding 5 points 3 months ago

You most certainly do!

Hooray for Old Strathcona! ๐Ÿฅณ Very interesting choices this time again. It was difficult to pick just one first spot, so I went by my gut feeling. Now I'm really looking forward to trying MacDuffs soap! The scent description sounds very intriguing already. I love barbershop scents with a unique twist, so this could be right up my alley. Thanks to everyone for voting and to @sahenders@wetshaving.social for nominating the winning soap!

Assuming you meant Roam Two, this is my second-ranked vote

[โ€“] PorkButtsNTaters666 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sorry for the error, it should have been Lavanille (your nomination)

[โ€“] djundjila 2 points 3 months ago

Oh, oops ๐Ÿคญ

Still, second ranked vote

[โ€“] DaveWave94 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[โ€“] PorkButtsNTaters666 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

FYI: I screwed up the name of the soap - the B&M soap is Lavanille.

[โ€“] DaveWave94 2 points 3 months ago

Don't worry, it'll still stay my 4th rank. Mistakes can happen ๐Ÿ˜‰

I got mine today. Smells quite good!

[โ€“] sahenders 2 points 3 months ago

Good news! The first time I mailed out the smushes to the US addresses they were returned for being suspicious. I had to repackage and try again.
