Many of us were just waiting for this news: Gillette sales are way down, and they are cutting prices on their products up to 20% in a desperate attempt to regain market share. Nice going SJWs at Gillette! Your company is now hemorrhaging money-- but you no doubt feel so woke. https://www.thegatewaypundit.c...ring-metoo-razor-ad/ I switched to Schick, which is an excellent blade. I would shave with a rusty steak knife before ever going back to Gillette. ______________________________________________________ "You get much farther with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." | |||

I bought a Harry’s. Walmart now carries them. Coincidence? ________________ People hate you. Train like it. | |||

Yeah, Gillette can go stick its head in its own lap and blow. I canceled my razor subscription with Amazon for Gillette cartridges months ago. However, I'm still using up my stock so still using Gillette. They haven't seen a dime from since this sjw nonsense though. Still not 100% sure what I'll replace them with. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

It's always nice to see the results of a brilliant ad campaign. I am sure there are several companies that truly liked this add - you know names like Schick, Bic, Harry's, Dollar SC. Clearly all those at Gillette, involved with this, deserve a promotion to customer. Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless. | |||

I use so few razors I doubt they will notice, but I switched. The SJWs will never acknowledge the connection between their BS and lower sales Don't weep for the stupid, or you will be crying all day | |||

Gillette's quality took a nosedive several years ago when they moved production to Mexico. As a life-long user of Gillette, I noticed the change immediately, and started looking for better products. Of the multi-blades, Harry's was the best. Their shaving lather is better than Edge, which is another product I've used for 50+ years. Try that, too. I've since switched to DE and soap in a mug, but I keep my Harry's kit for travel. It's a good choice. Gillette's aWokening will hopefully destroy them, and send a message to all those companies who think it's OK to think that we respond well to ads promoting non-mainstream behavior as some sort of new normal. I stopped using many products because I was gagging on their ads. -------------------------- Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H L Mencken I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. -- JALLEN 10/18/18 | |||

I used and really liked the Mach 3s for a long time, but they seemed to get more and more stupid expensive and I’d only get a week out of them with them being noticeably duller by the end of the week. Tried Harry’s five blade (since they didn’t have a three) and it felt a little like shaving with a surfboard at first, but didn’t take that long to get used to. The weird thing is I get a month out of a Harry’s cartridge and it seems less dull at the end of the month than the Mach 3 did at the end of the week. | |||

It’s gonna get a lot worse. All these companies are doing demographic shifts and pretty soon all the marketing is going to be wrapped around millennials. I’m seeing it on several fronts. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

The brand has been on sale/rebate near constantly since the video came out. They wouldn’t need to do that if sales were strong. | |||

Same here, but after that ad came out I used up my Gillette products and found a cheaper store brand that works just as well. Heck, I would spend MORE money just to avoid buying Gillette! | |||

The BIC razor's have been great. The 5 blade are a great experience although I've been trying the triple blade due to price point. I was a Gillette Mach3 user for years. No more.This message has been edited. Last edited by: DetonicsMk6, | |||

They’ve doubled down. Trans black teens are apparently their new target market. https://www.facebook.com/gille...eos/2353380328320259 The Skinguard also appears to me to be a response to many of us figuring out that 3-5 blades leads to more problems than it solves. They had it right 60-65 years ago, but the business of selling more blades led them to innovate past the point of perfection. I’m calling it now: they’ve already brought out a “new” two blade razor to try to stem competition from the vintage stuff, they’ll bring out a new single blade razor with a proprietary head before long. Fuck Gillette. Get yourself a selection of straight, double edge and single edge razors and learn to do it the way your grandfather did and there’s no comparison, no going back. ______________________________________________ "If the truth shall kill them, let them die.” Endeavoring to master the subtle art of the grapefruit spoon. | |||

Read the comments. I think there's a very high probability that Gillette is filtering the comments. For those without Facebook: Link to original video: https://youtu.be/Z_rS2pCT4-g Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

Thanks for the YouTube link, I was looking for it and couldn’t find it. The other forum I saw this on mentioned the lack of negative comments, and I would agree they’re deleting negative comments as fast as they can, even comments calling that possibility to attention. ______________________________________________ "If the truth shall kill them, let them die.” Endeavoring to master the subtle art of the grapefruit spoon. | |||

Same here. No more Gillette for me forever. _________________________ “Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority.

I just ordered a refillable type razor from Barbasol. We'll see how it does. I already use their shaving cream. I have never liked the Gillette gels. After 20 years of Gillette Mach 3, change is going to be tough. ____________________________________________________ New and improved super concentrated me: Proud rebel, heretic, and Oneness Apostolic Pentecostal.

I still plan to buy Gillette DE blades, but the ones I use come out of Russia for the Arabic market, I have a feeling that those segments of the company are NOT on board with any of this garbage. _____________________________________________ Proverbs 3:31 "Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways." | |||
