Lid 194 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 I get these cheap ones from Tesco - currently 30p for 5 and they last me over a week each if you are careful with them. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGD 6,385 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Doesn't everyone just buy all their blades off the local junky shoplifters? 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackdog92 2,047 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Why don't you just use beard trimmers an put it On the lowest setting it's nearly as close as a razor. Atleast then you don't have to keep buying fresh blades. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TOMO 24,880 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 I can't see how it costs that much, ,I can use a disposable at least half a dozen times,,, but usually use Mack 3 blades,, again each set will last at least half a dozen shaves... if not more.....

Lid 194 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 i have tried all the cheapos they just rip me lol us derbyshire men have hair made of steel I found that some of the cheapos rip and some don't. BIC are the worst for me, yet those Tesco ones are fine. I also find that Wilkinson Sword last me about two useless shaves, whereas Gillette nearly 10 good ones!
