Back To College Shopping Just Got Easier With Gillette

My son John, pictured above, will be 21 years old next week. At the end of August he will be headed back to Westminster College to complete his senior year. I have been stocking up on items for him to start the year off with and one thing I am able to check off the list is razor blades thanks to Gillette. Gillette now has a razor blade subscription service that is great for guys in college. You simply select what type of blade you need, which retailer you want to use, how many blades and how often you want them delivered and then you wait for them to arrive at your dorm or college address. The best part of this subscription service is you can get your blades for AS LITTLE AS $1. A MONTH!!  As my five year old would say "Super Duper Easy Peasy!" The past year when John would come home he usually had stubble and a scruffy look; he attends college in an area that is surrounded by an Amish community and it is about 25 miles to the closest store to buy his Gillette blades which is very inconvenient for him, so we were very pleased to hear of this subscription service and couldn't wait to sign him up.

Gillette very generously sent us samples of their newest razor the Fusion Pro Glide With Razorball Technology. Here is a description of the Fusion Pro Glide With Razorball Technology from Gillette: The Gillette Fusion ProGlide with FlexBall Technology is the first razor of its kind, with a new handle that adjusts and pivots to respond to the contours of a man’s face for fewer missed hairs. Using existing Fusion ProGlide cartridges, the new handle lets the cartridge move in three dimensions for maximum contact. The result is #ShavingRebuilt for an entirely new shave experience. Men who tried the Fusion ProGlide with FlexBall Technology prefer it 2-to-1 over the standard Fusion ProGlide.  And since it uses the same blades as the Fusion ProGlide, it’s a one-time purchase for a 2X better shave.

I had John and his dad both give it a try and they both gave it a five star rating, John said he didn't think they could make a better razor than the Gillette Fusion Pro Glide he was previously using but Gillette has come out with an even better razor in the Fusion Pro Glide With Razorball Technology.

For all you college moms and students out there I highly recommend this great service from Gillette, it's an easy way to save time and money. You can check out the Gillette Subscription Service HERE. You can also follow Gillette on Facebook and Twitter for product news, shaving tips, and special offers.

  2. Wow what an amazing offer! College students are always super busy studying and what not and have very little extra time. Not only is this offer super convenient because the razors can be sent directly to you but they offer an unbeatable shave as well!

  7. I'll have to look into this for my hubby. He tries to save money by purchasing cheap razors, but they don't last long.

  8. Razors in our house are sadly seldom used. All three of my guys have a beard of some sort! But I love the idea of subscription.

  17. This might sound strange but, I LOVE Gillette men's razors compared to women's razors. I love the idea of a subscription service!

  20. My husband was totally the "a razor is a razor" guy but after I bought him this one, he really doesn't want to go back to just a razor anymore. Thanks for sharing!
