Razors

One thing I hate paying big bucks for is razors (can I get an amen)!  However, my husband and I both have sensitive skin and we need good razors or we break out.  When I started couponing I was excited about the possibilities of cheap razors, but even with coupons I still haven't found an abundance of great deals on high end razors. 

First, what is a good price?  Well, it just depends on what razor you buy.  For me, I look for at least four and preferably five blades and most of these are non-disposable.  Many times you can get the razor for a good price and then they stick it to you when you go to buy the refill cartridges.  However, if i can find a good blade for less than $2 I consider that a pretty good price.  Again, i realize you can buy razors cheaper, but most highend blades are about $3 or more.  Now, I'm even willing to pay two dollars for a whole razor and never buy the refills because some of the time that is what's cheaper.

This week at Walgreen's I got a decent price on some really nice razors and refill cartridges.  Hang on because there are about four levels of discounts to get your final price. 

**side note** What makes this a good deal for me is because I shop at Walgreen's every week and use their rewards system.  If you don't, then this is not a great deal for you.

Buy one Schick Hydro 5 groomer

But one Hydro 5 4ct cartridge refill

Together these are normally priced at $29! Yikes!

This week they are 25%off making them $10.49 & $11.24 each. So that brings us down to about $22.

At Walgreen's when you buy two you get 5000 points... Or $5.  Now we are at $17.

Right now at coupons.com there is a printable coupon for $7 off a groomer and refill cartridge.  Now we are down to $10! 

And finally to get it below the $2 each... Right now at Walgreen's you get 50 points for every dollar you spend in the beauty department when you scan the coupon in their weekly ad.  You get 1050 points for this purchase.

  Bringing your total to about $9 for five razor blades plus this razor has a nice trimmer on the end! You have to work a little bit for it, but I think this is a pretty good deal!

It will be about $16 out of pocket with tax and you'll have your 6050 points for next time.
