Consumer Escapes - A Great Shave

I'm an every-other-day shaver. And even at that schedule I hate it. I've tried electrics, disposable razors, shaving in the shower, three blades, four blades, five blades, ... Nothing made the experience smooth. At Costco last week I purchased (with a coupon) Gillette's latest entry in the shaving arms race, the Fusion ProGlide Power.  The promise is that “shaving becomes gliding.” After a few shaves this skeptic has become a believer. In fact while gliding I can think about the day ahead. Now that's an early morning escape.

I learned on the Gillette You Tube channel that the average man spends over 1,000 hours of his life shaving. Might as well make it smooth. (Just please don’t let my wife shave her legs with my new Fusion ProGlide!)
