Of all the morning rituals, shaving is the worst.  What’s not to like about taking a razor blade to your face and removing a layer of skin while wobbling in a half awaken stupor?

If only we had a razor blade that would remove hair to the skin on one pass, making the art of face sculpting much less demanding.

It seems the shaver wars are still raging, as Gillette has added their 5 bladed Fusion to the shelf for a whopping $11.99.  That’s just for the handle and a single cartridge.

Need a refill pack?  Get eight cartridges for only $28.99.

Rather than spend a fortune on the new technology razor blades, why not buy the previous generation Mach 3 Turbo?  Buy the handle and 2 cartridges for only $8.99 and pick up an 8-pack of cartridges for $17.99.

If you’re like me, that still sounds like an awful lot just to remove hair from your face, but it’s not as much as you would have spent when the Mach 3 first came out.  Much like used cars, you’re going to get a deal on the previous generation product when the new stuff hits the market.

Or, thanks to Jonathan at MyMoneyBlog.com, you can hit up Schick for a free trial of their Titanium razors.
