How to Beat the High Cost of Shaving

Men and women around the country are faced with the dilemma of having to choose between paying the mortgage or purchase a new package of five razors for your Sensor Excel razor. Here are some very helpful and cost effective suggestions to have beat the high cost of shaving.

There are tough choices to be made; do I eat this month, or do I buy three replacement cartridges for my Mach-3? Do I want to take up "hooking" so that I can afford to shave this month?

Seriously, a package of ten replacement blades for a Sensor Excel, not even that high-end a razor, costs $19.99 online. In local retail outlets they cost even more. If you have baby-soft-oh-so-kissable skin like I do, then your best case scenario puts it at roughly three shaves per blade at best. My friend Joey, who by the way happens to be a Sasquatch, is lucky to get one.

The one universal method of making blades last is to dry them after each use. Of course, there are several way to do this, including alcohol and fancy machines. However, one very effective method is to simply blot the blade with a towel.

According to the gentleman in this video, you can make a single cartridge last for years, just by following his simple suggestions. Takes notes, this is good stuff.
