Gillette Fusion Proglide 8 Blades and Razor Handle $9.99 (Save $30) Clearance @ Woolworths

290

Came across this today in Woolworths Forest Hill (VIC). Was on clearance so may be available at other stores. At least six packs left after I got mine. Can't go wrong at this price.

  • Never seen it packaged like that before with the handle + 8 blades. I've only ever seen the handles individually with one blade installed

    • Me either. I thought it was US stock when I saw it but it's Aust packaging. Probably clearing because it takes up a lot of shelf space ;-)

    • Me too, never seen that… Gonna check tomorrow in perth.

      • Anyone seen these anywhere else? I'll be checking Boronia Vic today

    • Actually saw this package not more than a week ago and checked the price (it was very pricey). Might see if there any left at local store.

  • Good timing - thanks

    Would this be better than a mach 3?

    I need new blades and it would be cheaper to just buy these.

      It's definitely better. The fusion has two extra blades. The fourth blade keeps the hair distracted till the fifth blade comes along and decapitates it.

      • Gillette won't be happy until men have to move their face against a giant grater-like structure of OVER 9000 blades, costing a testicle per blade. And the blades are poison.

        • Agreed about the price of these damn things, they dont last long either..

    • Well they are the latest Gillette manual razor. Personal preference applies when choosing razors ;-)

      Heaps better than Mach3. I was a dedicated Gillette Sensor Excel (2-blade) dude for almost 2 decades, and all things considered I still prefer those - but the Fusion razors shave the planes of the face better, and they also have a 'reversing blade' on the so that you can shave the base of your nostrils without tearing your nose half off. (Try getting the 5-blade table under your schnozz… but you have to unless you want a little 'mini-Hitler stache' in Southern Nostrilia.

      All that said (and I acknowledge that the 5-blade razors use superior metal to, and are thinner and sharper than, the old Sensor Excel)… why are we now in a world where toothbrushes and razors have the same plastic crap all over them as do running shoes?

      Also… I know that men have been emasculated somewhat (thanks to Fluoride, PBA and plastics) but the idea that a decision on razor to use is based on whether the manufacturer has paid a sports personality to pretend they use them - well, that says to me that the missus is making that decision, or there is a shortage down in testicale-land.

      • Lol. You appear to have testicular envy.

      • So you havnt used DE?

  • What the hell is a jelly joiner?

  • Are there any SYDNEY CBD or CENTRAL COAST stores???

  • Are there any SYDNEY CBD or CENTRAL COAST stores???

    • None at Tuggerah.

    None left at Woolworths Forest Hill :(

    • None at The Glen, either. Pity - OP got an amazing deal.

    • Note they may not be with the other razors. I found them with the other store "clearance" items.

      • Not their either, all gone it appears….assuming it was the clearance trolley near the liquor entrance (no ticket there either). I did however see then out near Kilsyth, but they were 20… Half price is still good

        • Actually in was with the other clearance stuff in the FH store (in the washing powder aisle, towards the back of the store)

        • you're goimg to make me go back tomorrow! If anyone sees any left, please let me know

  • Great price. Anywhere else with this price?

  • None at Macquarie or Carlingford Woolworths but I did load up on the Telstra sims. Yum.

  • Zero @ Coffs harbour (though doubt many other ozbargainers are from coffs)

  • I'd probably put 'expired' on this deal as they are no longer at Forrest Hill. The only other place I was able to find them was in Kilsyth where they were half price at $19.99

    I saw these a while back down near the meat section at woollies southport $39 though.

  • Saw these at Chadstone, VIC. They were on display as $39.99. But when I scanned them, they came up as $19.99. I ended up buying them - for 1 razor + 7 additional spare blades, this is still a good bargain. There were only 3 sets left when I got there around 8pm. I suspect that they were selling at $9.99 earlier on the day and marked it up to $19.99 later.

  • None at blacktown westpoint. I don't think they sell it there either. Didn't see any empty tags.

    $19.99 at Peppermint Grove [WA]. Four boxes left near the milk section.

  • None at WoyWoy, NSW, 2256
