NSIAP $1 Shave Club, anyone doing this?

$6/month for 4 4-blade heads. Seems too good to be true. I currently use Schtick Hydro 5 (5 blades). They run about $4/head, and I use them until the gel strip runs out, usually 2-3 weeks each.

So let's say $16 every 2 months. Is the $1 shave club worth it to save $2? ($8 vs. $6)? Also you get 4 so that is approx. one head per week. But I am worried about quality more than cost.

Thoughts?

I do Harry's and it's way cheaper than the Bic/Gillette route.

I only shave like 2-3x per week, though.

How is the quality of the Harry's heads?

I feel sorry for any poor dumb sonuvabitch who has to shave daily.

So you don't shave anything daily? Doesn't your neck get all prickly by 5pm? Or do you have too much estrogen?

I switched to Harry's on a whim about three months ago after finally having had enough of Gillette. I've been happy with Harry's. I don't subscribe, though, because I found out they're available at Target and I'm in there about once a month anyway. I don't know how the Target prices compare to the subscription.

Yes, they're avail at Target. The blades are pretty good, I'd say they last just as long or longer than those stupid 18 blade things from Gillette that cost like $8/apiece. And I like the shaving cream and after shave balm.

I don't get stubble like that every day. Maybe every 3-4 days. And I work from home so I don't particularly care if I have stubble unless my wife/kids complain about it.

I use a blade every day, but only after going over everything with the electric first, so I get about a month out of blade. Just the blade and water to get a little smoother than the Norelco.

Grow yourself a beard. And I'm not talking about Mrs. LWS.

Even with a beard (which I have for hunting season) you need to shave your neck. Don't be a neanderthal.

I have people I pay to shave my neck.

Does your wife shave her bush?
Do you eat pussy?

Do you really want to bring families into this?

Dollar Shave Club's blades are made by Dorco.  You can buy the Dorco Blades cheaper directly from them or Amazon (if you follow some of the deal sites, you can almost get them for free to try from Dorco).

I have tried the Dorco blades - in my opinion they not high quality blades, not terrible but below Gillette quality.

I have only bought them once, but strangely I follow Floyd Robertson's approach - Norelco wet/dry followed by a blade touch up.  Though, I do use shaving cream with the Norelco.  A process I discovered while researching how to shave with a busted up face.  I liked it and have stuck with it.

Here's How to Buy Dollar Shave Club Razors for Less Money on Amazon

Mods, please change thread title to

NSIAP $1 Shave Club, any metros doing this?

This thread is shameful. Talking about razors? Grow up and grow a beard. If you cannot grow a beard, just accept your reduced place in the male hierarchy.

Only shave with a blade on Mondays (or Tuesday if following a Monday holiday). Use a disposable and only go through maybe 5-6 a year.

Use a Braun series 7 the rest of the week. Best electric I've tried. Replacement heads aren't cheap at about $45 each but only change it once a year. Change the cleaning cartridge in the recharger roughly every 3 months...another $20 a year.

Some of us just don't like feeling like a hippy.

You can always tell when people have spent their entire life in a useless suburb.

Useless? Please explain

Suburbs ruined America.

Absent in suburbs is the sense of community one might find in city neighborhoods. Absent in suburbs is the sense of self-sustainability one might find in rural communities. Suburbs are absolutely horrible. The social experience is horrible, and so is the hyper- commercialization.

Turtleneck spot on.

Are you a farmer? If so, what do you farm?

I am not a farmer. I have also never lived in a suburb.

Guessing you never lived in a city either.

Please, tell us more about yourself.

I formerly lived in the city of Chicago. Does that count, Pantry? Maybe you should stop guessing.

I’m not a geographer but i believe Chicago is a City Turtleneck

Okay.  Exactly what is your point bashing suburbanites?

I am bashing suburbs, Pantry. I am sure their are many fine people that live in suburbs. I have lived in tiny rural communities and large cities. Suburban life is not for me.

With that being said, there is a higher chance you wear sweat pants and cargo shorts if you’re a suburbanite.

Pantry, just ignore Turtleneck. Last week, he said naps ruined America. The guy is talking out of his ass.

It's not just one thing that ruined America, GreenWay. You wouldn't really know since you hate America.

How do you feel about bedroom communities?

The same way OTPT feels about Hollis.

Living in the rural would make it much easier to obtain raw milk.  Why are you not taking advantage? Or, are you?

I am not currently buying raw milk. I do not buy too much milk.

Don't listen to him. He probably lives in the subarbs today. In fact, I can't think of a bigger yuppy on this site than TN.

I can’t think of a bigger fake Christian and overall religious fraud on this site than LWS.
