Was wondering if anyone else got a free Gillette Fusion Proshield razor in the mail lately. Got one today.
As I recall the same company sent me a free razor back in 1979 when I actually turned 18.
The refills will kill ya. $$$
Quit shaving a while ago but every once in a while I'll shave it all off. This new razor should last me til I die. :clap:

The box says "Happy 18th Birthday" on it.
Remember when the drinking age was 18 in Urbana and 19 in Champaign? (probably not)
Yeah...I got to drink legal and then one day (December 31, 1980) the state raised it to 21.
So from jan 1 1981 to my birthday in 1982 I was dry. (so dry)
I really don't want to be 18 again. Re-enlist? LOL

Oh my. Just found the coupon for $5 off on a blade refill.
That means it's probably close to $25 for the refill.
Oh chit it's ~$35 for 8 blades and ~$40 for 12.
No wonder I quit shaving.

Oops, thought I was editing. Replied to my own thread in Bettyesque fashion.
BAHAHAHAHAH
