Sitting down, good.  Actually that's not a bad price.  I pay US$23 for a pack of 8, not power, and as a "store" price it's the best I've found.

I've saw some good coupons for $8 off a few months ago...haven't seen any recently, but haven't been looking because I stocked up then.

If any of you shop at CVS and have one of their saver cards, they give out alot of save $5 off of a $25 purchase coupons.  I use these to buy my blades.  And if I time it right, I look for the coupons that come in the Sunday paper.  I have gotten a couple in the past 6 months.  They are usually for about $4 off a 6 pack or larger.

FLY-

Consider trying the M5 razor that a few of us have changed to recently.  It's made by Personna and is sort of a Fusion clone. The razor, along with three blades, can be had at WalMart for $5.88 (US dollars). Replacement blades are likewise $5.88 (US dollars) for a pack of (4) blades.
I think the M5 is a better shave than the Fusion and the price is unbeatable.

They moved the price to $6.22 for the razor and 2 blades here!  Got the shock picking up some Shave Secret.  Still, very little shelf space.  I loved my Fusion, until I was seduced by M5.

Still $5.88 here..... I picked up ANOTHER pack of blades over the weekend.

since you slys say the m5 is cheaper and does the same job, i'll go try it for myself and keep everyone posted on my verdict.

Definetly let us know what you think. Nobody that I know of that has tried it has been disappointed.

If you compare price to shave I don't think you can beat the M5 Magnum.

Just sent my acknowledgment of the superior shave provided by the M5 to the manufacturer.  I had to remind them that there are a lot of us guys now facing mpb head on--with a razor.  Maybe this company will openly acknowledge our presence--and it's "growing" all the time.  That would be the icing on the cake, or would it be better to say the uber lather on the dome! :D

How great of a marketing compaign would it be for Personna to have SBG members as the spokesmen for their products?

Maybe they could even sponsor SBC2010??????? HMMMMM!!!!!!
