When I ordered the ATX, Headblade included three $1 off coupons. I went to Walgreens to purchase a bottle of Headslick and they would not accept the coupon. Has anyone had trouble using the coupons?
Walgreens is the only place around here that sells Headblade products, and it isn't many.

I purchased my headblade , and head slick. At Walgreens and I went there the other day to see if they had the shine. I found one bottle of slick, no razors or other products.

I've used mine in the past at Rite Aid. Did they say why they wouldn't accept them?
-
They didn't say why. I asked and the girl was kinda rude so I left the Headslick on the counter. There are a couple other Walgreens in the area. Might give them a try over the weekend.
The Walgreens locally only carry the Headblade Sport, HB3 blades and Headslick. Nothing else.
Rite Aid does not carry their products.
Kinda sucks as I hate to pay for shipping. If they stop carrying the products guess I will have to give Bald Guyz shaving gel a try.
It's actually more expencive per ounce vs the Headslick.

I've seen HB products at the Winn-Dixie on Tchoupitoulas at Jefferson. The HBSlick was about $1 more than at Walgreens. I don't know what their policy is on coupons.
-
I've used the coupons multiple times at Walgreen ... even when they had 1.50 off themselves plus 1.00 off coupon!
If go to another Walgreen store.
-
Going to try the other local Walgreens store tomorrow. Maybe the girl didn't know what she was doing.
She scanned the coupon and it didn't automatically accept.

i bought the headblade today and just got done shaving. My experience with it is nothing to write home about. didn't give a good shave and caused mass irratation. had to finish with my normal blade
-
I guess I am lucky as I have not experienced any irritation. I do find I need to make multiple passes with the ATX to get the dome smooth but I think it is more me than the product. I've only used it 3-4 times so I'm still getting used to it.
-
The Walgreen's near me accepts HeadBlade coupons every time without question. You are right, though, about the limited selection of products they carry. At one point about a year ago, the store near me was planning to discontinue carrying HB products due to low demand. They had a clearance sale and since the stuff went fast, they decided to restock it according to the manager.
-
Went to the other Walgreens and they were out. So went back to the one that would not take the coupon. Different person working and when the coupon was scanned it showed invalid UPC. There are two UPC codes on the coupon. Scanned the second one and was accepted.
Wish Walmart carried the HB products.
Hopefully nxt year Walgreens will carry more products.
-
Did you happen to ask Wallgreen's if they were going to get more HB items in or could they I think that is what I am going to do here .

No I didn't but I emailed Headblade last week about that same issue and was told Walgreens and Rite Aid will stock more in 2013. All he said was the ATX would be available and the HB4 and I think the HB6 blades.
I don't know if it's Walgreens that doesn't want to carry more of their products. I can see that the products probably don't sell that great, but I blame that on lack of nat'l advertising.
Never heard of Headblade until I got on this site. I see alot of sly guys in my area. Not sure which products they use.
The Headblade products are a bit on the expensive side, especially the Headslick and the rest of the products. I find the blades are actually cheaper than the Sensor etc.
I know there are discussions on this site about other products, such as Edge Gel, etc but I'm not sure how those products stack up agains the Headslick. The bottle says you can get almost 100 shaves out of a bottle. so that would last me approx 4-6 mths, which makes the cost more in line with the other products.
-
Thanks nola44 for the info.. And I do agree they should do more adv. but they are a small company so proably trying to keep prices down.
-
Yeah, kinda figured that. If they did more advertising, they would probably pass the cost on to the consumers.

Hey Eddie,
WElcome to SLy Bald Guys.
I haveused Headblade coupons at Walgreens and they have accepted them. THe only things that they carry here are head slick, the headbalde razors and Headblade razor blades. They do not carry headblade glossy lube or clear head which I also use regularly which is disappointing. I did find a barber supply store here that carries headlube glossy but they do not accept the coupons
Gld that you have joined us. Take care.

All the local Walgreens carry is the Headblade Sport, HB3 razors andHeadslick. Nothing else.
Maybe next year they will stock more.
-
Might be worth a message to HeadBlade, see what they make of it.

Walgreens and Rite Aid only carry HB Sport and Triple HB blades, Headslick and HB with SPF 30 lube. The don't carry HB Glossy lube or matte or any other products. They do accept my coupons. Wishing they carried a fuller line of HB products. I am sure they would sell them.
-
Rite Aid does not carry any of the HB products. At least now the three they have locally. Walgreens only has the sport, HB3 blades and headslick. Gues they dont have a big enough market. Wish they would expand and sell at Wally World. I thought Walmart carried the HB products at one time but they don't now.
