Of course, to save money to raise these kids, I always shaved with those orange things that were about 5 for a dollar. (They call them disposables. I'd dispose of them when they got so blunt they'd take a patch of skin out with each hair.)
But now the boys have left home and all the leftover blades have been used up. So today I had to buy blades again.
But I thought, Hey I can afford it now. The boys are off our hands. Our expenses are down, and I'm worth it! So I'm going to follow the wife around the supermarket and find myself a pack of Mach 5 refills!.
What??!! $26 for eight blades!!! Are you ******* kidding me?!!
So I'm back to the orange things again. $4.95 for 15, and perfectly good enough. | Good Mornin Alchemysa,
That was a great read ! I see that things in Australia are not entirely different than the USA !  We raised two boys that have gone on their own and I went through the exact same thing ! 
Thanks for refreshing my memory !
