I've switched to an old school safety razor.... looks like it's going to cost maybe 10.00 a year in Feather replacement blades..... Ha ha.

I ordered my first batch of Dollar shave club products. So far I like them. Gillett can go nuzzle all the leftist wanker they can stand.

LOL...

They donated $2.5M in products to military families. That's probably about $150k in real dollars.

Too little too late after the smear campaign on men.




It takes awhile for those sales drops to show up. Might be 6 months or more... But they will show up.

Benchmade will get their sales orders in a while too. Bet they have enough stock in the warehouse to last awhile... grin

Why the heck dont they just sell their products on the basis of the products attributes. Good grief. This kind of crap is getting boring.
I switched to a safety razor a few years ago. I really like it.

I have used Gillette Mach 3 razors for many years with no complaints.

Just yesterday I went out of my way to purchase a competing brand. Screw Gillette. That condescending, finger wagging anti male commercial pissed me off.
I know I'm just a little drop in the ocean, but I'll never buy Gillette again.

What manager thinks it's a wise idea to piss off any portion of your customer base?

I also went to Harry's. Only a month now, but so far, I'm very happy. I'm still using the first "trial" blade and have already received my first automatic refill. (One issue: the refill was supposed to be five blades, for which I was charged - only got four. If the next shipment is short, I'll complain.)

I've been putting more effort and time into shaving..... bought a shower mirror tried the CREMO shave cream Rocky suggested... that was hard to rinse out of the razor so I'm now using Barbasol which also works great. Sometimes I'll zap a wet towel in the microwave and (carefully) drape that over my face for 30 or so seconds before I shave. I thought about really going retro with a straight razor but I don't get my hunting and kitchen knives as sharp as I'd like them to be ….. so didn't go there.

Every morning shave now is a reminder to take a stand against the SJW / identity politics crap being thrown at us.

Bought an old fashioned safety razor and a box of Derby blades five years ago. Still have probably 30 blades left. When I go to the store and see what they want for their fancy blades, I just have to shake my head and wonder what fool pays that kind of money for razor blades?

They just can't help themselves. Like bat-crap-crazy celebrities, they think most people agree with them on the various issues, and will blubber and wail like little bitches when it ends up costing them real dollars. A fair number of outspoken celebs have fallen off the radar for the most part, whether because they're laying low for a time, or have become unmarketable, no one will likely ever know.

If we ever go Communist, Gillette will be the only brand on the shelf, the reward for their loyaty to,the cause.

Gillette can cater to the those left-wing, liberal men hating snowflake crowd all they want. I have a few Mach 5 blades left. When they are used up, it's on to Schick or some other blade for me. PISS ON UM [

Harrys is kinda big, but still usable.
Can go faster without getting shredded.
