• Prep: Warm Shower
• Brush: Zenith 80R Boar Brush
• Razor: Bevel Essentials Disposable
• Blade: Bevel Essentials Disposable (1)
• Lather: Arko
• Post Shave: Aqua Velva - Classic Ice Blue
• Fragrance: Parfum Belcam - Classic Match Polo EDT

Arko - $7.98 for a 2-pack comes out to $0.05/gram; Zenith 80R I bought off Amazon a couple of years ago for $7.99; Classic Match Polo can be found at Walmart for $7.98 or $3.19/oz; Bevel Disposable and Blade normal price is $8.46 for five or $1.69/ea.; Aqua Velva from Walmart is $4.98 or $0.71/oz.

I have come to like today's theme quite a bit. Like many, when I first got into wetshaving, I did it intending to save money. However, I quickly jumped off the deep end. Today's theme reminds me, as I tell the people I try convincing to wetshave, that wetshaving can be cheap and still enjoyable. I am so glad I saved money with today's shave, and of course, I had to remind my wife that it was shaves like today's that got me into the hobby!
