How much money can I save switching from Mach3 to double edged razor blades?
Customers are often suprised at the amount of money that can be saved by switching from a Mach3 or Fusion to a double edged razor. The following comparison is based on an average use of: 1 x Mach3 cartridge a week OR 2 x double edged razor blades a week MACH3 CARTRIDGE YEARLY COST Boots do twelve cartridges for 11.99. So: 11.99 divided by 12 weeks of shaving x 52 weeks a year = 51.96 for a year’s worth of Mach3 cartridges. DOUBLE EDGED RAZOR BLADE YEARLY COST At the Shaving Shack, we do 30 blades for 5.99 (15 weeks shaving at two blades a week). So: 5.99 divided by 15 weeks of shaving x 52 weeks a year = 20.76 for a year’s worth of double edged razor blades. That’s a saving of around 31 a year and less than half the cost of shaving with Mach3s. Even in the first year, where you would have to purchase a double edged razor, this saving is more than enough to cover this initial extra cost. Dan at The Shaving Shack’s story I am one of the lucky ones who can get away with using one DE blade
