I went to buy some more razor blades recently. I bought one of those 'M3 Power' razors a while ago so was looking for blades for that.
They were £6.98 for 4 in Tesco.
Alongside it, were some normal Mach 3 Turbo blades at £4.98 for 4. Having not been convinced that the M3 Power razor made any difference, I got regular ones.
Now, imagine my amazement when I tried to put a regular blade on my M3 Power razor, and it fitted and worked perfectly!!
The blades are identical to look at (apart from the little strip across the back of the blade is a different colour), yet Gillette see fit to put an extra 50p per blade on the RRP, even though it seems only the packaging is different.
How can they possibly be allowed to get away with this?? :annoyed: :annoyed: :annoyed:
