Frugal Finds - Razors at a Bargain.

In this episode of Frugal Finds I bring you a fantastic deal on high quality razors. I'm not sure when it happened but razors are redunculously expensive - like, I will routinely shave with a dull razor for 3 months, expensive. I was resigned to only having truly silky smooth legs every 3 months or so, until an ad on Facebook for Dollar Shave Club caught my eye. It seemed to be WAY too good to be true, I mean the two major razor companies must need to charge their outrageous prices because of all the science and stuff right? I did a brief online search (as I always do) to determine the level of scam I could be buying into with Dollar Shave Club (DSC). Turns out they're legit but, during my research, I discovered an even less expensive company, Dorco (yep, giggle, giggle, snort, snort).

According to a few articles I read (and they're on the internet so they have to be true, but in this case I'm assuming they are) Dorco is where DSC gets their razors.
So, by eliminating the middle man and going straight to Dorco (still funny - I'm 8) I was able to get a razor for myself and one for the hubs plus an additional 24 replacement cartridges each for a grand total of $57.92! I found a code (PromoPro25) which gave me 25% off my order plus all orders over $25 ship for free - winner! Oh, and I received my razors 3 days after I placed the order!!!


I've tried out both mine and his (shhh, don't tell him) and they both yielded silky smooth legs and feel great in the hand. I haven't used a chick razor in years but (after reading a ton of glowing reviews) decided to get one - I like how the head pivots around but I feel like the head is a bit too large. This is a minor issue and more about preference; I bought a year's worth and it's really not a big deal. His razor has a smaller head and is similar to (but better than) my previous razor.



I am extremely pleased with these razors and the fact that they're letting me save money whilst "fightin' the man"! You know, the big, money swindling razor man!

Now for you readers who've held on until the end, I received an email today stating that until midnight tonight (5-5-15) you can snag a 6-blade razor for only $1!!! Hurry!! That's an even better deal than I got - yay you!
