My Major Award

Little did I know, when I went to bed on Saturday night that I would be the recipient of a major award via a contest held on The Shave Den Forum. This contest was open to forum members who posted at least 10 posts with 50+ words. They had to be posts that contributed to the forum and not just some gimmick to get into the contest. I was unable to attend the actual drawing on chat Saturday night. It was Sunday morning when I finally got around to checking the contest results and was in total shock to learn that I had won the grand prize.

Here are the results:

Our drawing is now complete, and a big congratulations are in order for qhsdoitall, our grand prize winner.

I also want to give a special thanks to Bill for putting this entire thing together. The concept, and entire drawing was organized by no other than him. I also want to thank all the other vendors who contributed. All of you should know, that they all volunteered without being asked, and I want to list them all and their stores below.

  1. Rich...
    When your name was picked by the random generator, I grew an instant smile. The razor went to a great guy and a generous contributor to the banter at the Shave Den.
    Just remember this... since you didn't pay anything for it, it's not worth anything. :-)
    I hope it serves you well... take good care... Bill

  2. But it's worth so much to me. There is no dollar value I can put on this in dollars but millions in smiles.
