I just saw a package of razor blades at Costco for $45.

Are any of those shave clubs that advertise on radio or tv any good? Are they significantly cheaper?

I'm good about stretching the blades for a long time, but I have a wife and three 18 year-olds that go through them like crazy...

They sell razors in Portland?

Who knew.


Was in that dollar shave club thing for a year. Over a year after cancelling I was still using razors that I had stored up.

Seems like we go thru this discussion over and over.

Get yourself a double edge razor and a bulk order of blades. Even at 2 blades per week, you're probably looking at less than 10 bucks per year per person.

I've been a member of dollar shave club for a while now. Costs $6 a month and I get a really good razor.


(Disclaimer: I've grown my beard out and only shave my neck now)

Spend about $40 on a good safety razor, baw. It's $10 for a box of blades and it's a better shave.

There's no reason to used those 4 and 5 bladed expensive monstrosities.

Why exactly, would I want to be a member of a club, that would have ME as a member?!

Target sells the Harry's brand, I use their stuff and like it. Picked up a 4-pack of replacement blades for $9 yesterday. I like their shaving cream stuff as well.

Me and a couple of buddies started our own shave club. We get together every other week and shave each other top to bottom. Nothing homo mind you, just some bros shaving bros.

No, it isn't.

It is a lot more involved and has some cool perks, but a simple mach 3 is a way better shave.

Yes, I know you will claim that you are Bill the Butcher and your little cheeks are smoother than a baby's bottom; and that I am a clueless pleb that doesn't know silvertip from nutria hair.

Those German blades that Bret Favre endorses are great. You get 12 blades and each blade lasts for thirty shaves apiece. They only cost $20.

Costco online has a 14 pack of Mach 3 for 20 bucks (free shipping). Might go that route.

Been using Dollar Shave Club for over a year now. Blades and handles are quality. I should have looked into them sooner.

One blade lasts me about 4-6 months so the costs of a Mach 3 vs double edge is negligible.

I do still use a double edge before doing something like a wedding or going somewhere nice for dinner. It puts me in a better mood. Almost cathartic.
