So on Saturday I went on the hunt to try and find DE blades here in Winnipeg. Well after searching for most of the day I managed to find a place that sells wilkinson sword blades, but they wanted $15 for a pack of 10. For a bit more I can buy a 60 blade sample pack from a popular Canadian online store. I have nothing against buying online but I also like to be able to purchase in person. I think that every major city should have a men's grooming store where we can go in and handle the products, smell the soaps creams and after shaves. Its got me thinking that I should start my own small store just to give people the chance to buy in person.
OK that's the end of my little rant, time to have a good looking woman hurt
 
I think that is a big part of why Scot started his store here in Calgary, runs it out of his basement, and has a great selection of stuff. But I hear ya, I'm kinda surprised a city like winnipeg doesn't have something like that, it seems like it would fit right in!
 
It may soon, I may have found a supplier, I am going to the small business offices later this week to get more information on starting a small business and possible locations. I am hoping something small and cheap or in an existing business that would rent me some space. My house is too small to run a business out of unless I went pure online and that would defeat what I would like to accomplish. The other locations I am thinking is a booth in a flea market. Or by appointment from my house.
If I sell off a couple of computers I would have storage space in my house, may already have one sold that would leave 2 more to go, but selling one more gives me the room for a couple 1000 blades some brushes and razors. I can combine both the grooming and custom knife making into one shop
