You lot are perfect.

Get the razor for free (RRP about 4 quid; they're usually a tenner but with 5 blades included), then spend the next 2 years buying blades for it at £2 each.

BTW, I also heard the story about the inventor and the businessman; the inventor made the safety blade, the businessman made it a disposable cartridge so people would have to keep coming back and buying more. Genius, I thought. Look at Bic FFS, razors and pens.

Razors (in my experience) appear to be very similar. The biggest difference I've found is swapping away from gels and shaving forms to using shaving oil instead. Try Somersets or something similar. It makes a huge difference (much closer shave), you don't cut your face anywhere near as much and its cheaper (a £2.99 bottle will last close to 3 months)

Buy a 5 litre bottle of veg oil from Tesco - it will last you the rest of your life and only cost a couple of quid.

Reminds me of the story of a bloke who went to a shampoo supplier with an Idea he said would increase sales. He did a deal based on it for a couple of mil. This is wear the words 'repeat if necessary' or the like came from..... so the urban myth goes.

So just opt out. Or use your junk e-mail account, that's what I do. Anyway, Gillette are a respectable company so will have to adhere to the Data Protection act.

One of the questions you have to answer is "What other face care products do you use" (or something like that) but there's no option to say "None, I'm not a fu*king fairy" lol

Talking Gillette pished it up

Lol @ Gillette's "freebie giveaway" backfiring.

On the otherhand, my Wilkinson Sword Quattro is still going strong!
