About a year ago I saw an advertisement for a product on TV that I’d thought I’d give a try.  What prompted my interest was that I had been spending $18 and more for replacement razor blades at the grocery store.  This gets to add up over the course of a year.  If there’s an alternative to the overly expensive, name-brand blades then I am definitely interested.

The advertisement was for The Dollar Shave Club.  What piqued my interest was the price they were charging; $6.00 for a package of four cartridges that consisted of 4 stainless steel blades.  These are similar to the ones that I have been paying $18 and more.  That’s a saving of $12 per cartridge pack.

There are also a few additional perks when you sign up with The Dollar Shave Club –

• I received a new handle with my initial order
• I can decide if I want shipments every month of every other month.
• You don’t have to remember to buy new razors because they are shipped automatically either monthly or every other month, depending on the time period you decide.
• The Dollar Shave Club also offers many other products that you can include in your shipment box.
  • Pre-shave oil
  • Shave butter
  • Post-shave lotion
  • Shampoo
  • Face cleanser
  • Face moisturizer
  • Lip Balm
  • Hair Gel
  • You can also add an extra handle and cartridges.

So, if you use multi-blade razors to shave and are sick of tired of paying the high prices at the grocery stores, like I am, then check out The Dollar Shave Club.  The cartridge blades are, in my opinion, of similar quality as the ones that you buy at retail.
