Thread: Stop saying we gonna save money!

I used to spend about $500 a year on razor blades for the multibladed monsters. I could only use a blade for about three days before I had to switch. If I didn't, I'd have razor burn worse than I did every day.

Before that I bought an electric that was $400 that I had to change the three blades every six months and those were not cheap.

Now, I spend between $350-400 a year and I enjoy it. My wife has switched to a de so she's saving money as she uses my blades and doesn't have the AD's I have, only one DE is good for her.

I think I'm doing ok.

Some of use are saving large sums considering the hobby we once spent all our free time enjoying.

What I believe that everyone is saying is that like any hobby it's as expensive as you want it to be. I went cheap, you went expensive. Each have their virtue and their faults. I didn't want to spend a lot but it created more work for me and my equipment may not be as nice as yours. You spent a lot your equipment is probably better and so you're shaves might be better than mine and you won't have to replace your things as soon as I will. I'll spend the money just not yet.
