Thread: Kroger brand or Walgreens brand DE Blades

i noticed the CVS , Rite Aid , and Dollar store by me appear to be the same blade all just in different packaging per the stores brand ...the walmart by me carrys only Wilkinson Sword

I use wal-green blades quite often when i use my de, they are not bad blades at all. I keep buying them because it is easier than ordering the "good" blades as wal-greens is right down the road

I got some Kroger blades at Fred Meyer and they were really harsh and left my skin burning. Wilkinson blades from Wal-Mart are good, they're a lot smoother.

I was in Kroger and Rite Aid and looked
at the DE blades again. The plastic blade
holders look identical and so do the tops of
the blades - each has two arrows pointing
in the direction the blades are to be removed.

I wouldn't be surprised if all the store brand DE
blades are made in the same plant in the US.

The Kroger blades cost $7.00 and change the
Rite Aid $8.00 and change.

If I used a DE more often I would buy a pak of
each just to try them.

i agree on the Wal-Mart Wilkinsons , plus they were less then half the cost of any razors at any of the drug stores by me ..

I may as well try Wally's World as well.
No doubt the boy is in Wal Mart a LOT
more than Rite Aid.

I hope that I can convince him. Who know
perhaps a short distance down the road
I can turn him on to straights.

I've got a 5/8 Geneva RP with his name written
on it...
