Farewell, Old Friend


He came to me a few years ago in a small box in the mail. It was a promotional offer to try the new Gillette Fusion. I had always been happy with my little blue Gillette plastic throw-aways with their twin blades, but the new Fusion had FIVE blades. I threw it in the cabinet under the sink anyway.
Then this past summer as my supply of little blues was almost gone, I decided to open up the Fusion and give it a try. I wish I could remember the exact day that I did so. It must have been in July because I don't remember taking it to Wellsboro in June. Anyway, two blades had nothing on five.
And everyday, that Fusion did a bang up job on keeping my face smooth as silk. But now four months later, the efficiency of the Fusion had finally run its course. It was time to go back to the plastic blues. Farewell, Old Friend, and Thank You for so many great shaves.
(This is NOT a hint for a Christmas Gift of Fusions!)

Are you getting another one? If it lasts four months it would seem worth it. And one more thing.....

Don't you just need to buy a replacement blade for it? How expensive could that be? A little research online says that you can get a four pack for $10 online and it states that the package says they last up to three months, so your experience is not that unusual after all.
