Gillette Fusion Proglide 8 Blades and Razor Handle $9.99 (Save $30) Clearance @ Woolworths
This was posted 1 year 1 day ago, and might be an out-dated deal
Came across this today in Woolworths Forest Hill (VIC). Was on clearance so may be available at other stores. At least six packs left after I got mine. Can't go wrong at this price.

I was a dedicated Gillette Sensor Excel (2-blade) dude for almost 2 decades, and all things considered I still prefer those - but the Fusion razors shave the planes of the face better, and they also have a 'reversing blade' on the so that you can shave the base of your nostrils without tearing your nose half off. (Try getting the 5-blade table under your schnozz… but you have to unless you want a little 'mini-Hitler stache' in Southern Nostrilia.
All that said (and I acknowledge that the 5-blade razors use superior metal to, and are thinner and sharper than, the old Sensor Excel)… why are we now in a world where toothbrushes and razors have the same plastic crap all over them as do running shoes?
Also… I know that men have been emasculated somewhat (thanks to Fluoride, PBA and plastics) but the idea that a decision on razor to use is based on whether the manufacturer has paid a sports personality to pretend they use them - well, that says to me that the missus is making that decision, or there is a shortage down in testicale-land.
+2 votesI believe they are new lollies that can be used like building blocks. Think it's kinda like lego: http://www2.woolworthsonline.com.au/Shop/ProductDetails?Stoc...

Saw these at Chadstone, VIC. They were on display as $39.99. But when I scanned them, they came up as $19.99. I ended up buying them - for 1 razor + 7 additional spare blades, this is still a good bargain. There were only 3 sets left when I got there around 8pm. I suspect that they were selling at $9.99 earlier on the day and marked it up to $19.99 later.

Never seen it packaged like that before with the handle + 8 blades. I've only ever seen the handles individually with one blade installed
