    Need a cheap place to play in Chicagoland

    Me and a buddy are afternoon players, so we look for the best twilight rates (so the earlier the twilight, the better) and we play 18 holes on Sundays. We're in the western suburbs. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Clubman Pinaud. I've got all kinds of after shave but this is my favorite. It's got that old-time barber shop smell. And it's inexpensive! 16 ounces. Less than ten bucks. Free shipping. https://www.pharmapacks.com/products/clubman-pinaud-after-shave-lotion-16-oz

    Same for me. LIke somebody else said, "I used to have to shave. Now I get to shave." With super-sensitive skin you might try a pre-shave too. I use this. https://proraso-usa.com/products/preshave-cream-sensitive It really makes for a great base when you apply the soap/cream.

    Wet shaving

    I hear you, but there are a ton of great razors out there that are not Gillette. New and vintage. And I used to use Nivea shave "sensitive" gel. I found that Edge Shave Gel is much better than that. And all kinds of shave soaps and cremes (used in wet shaving) are way better than Edge Shave Gel.

    ^ ROFL Yeah, I guess I'm still caught up in that crazy buying spree. (I'll try to learn from your experience.)

    Yep. Agree. And like someone said, 'We used to spend a lot of money on cartridges. Now we spend it on razors, soaps and shaving gear.' But hey, it can be kept in line, and when you do, it is 1000 times cheaper and much more pleasurable.

    You da man! (I'll never use a straight razor.) How did you like the Fat Boy? They're in big demand these days.
