I liked the idea of BVWSC very much and assumed that participation would grow as redditors, and others, observed the activity and would want to participate. As that happened, I also thought we would have to move away from one person providing all of the smushes. I know that we all have done this multiple times, and with such a small group, it really isn't an imposition to create and distribute smushes, but it would be if there were 20 people or more participating each month.

For a while, I've thought that maybe we could submit soap ideas, vote, then choose the most popular entry that we could distribute on as local a basis as possible. For example, if I owned Tundra Artica, I would be happy to send out smushes to the US recipients. Unfortunately, while I have a sizeable investment in SV products, I don't own TA. (80th is terrific, btw.)

I like trying the soaps along with others in this group and, let's face it, the name BVWSC is cool. I hope we find a way to keep this going.
