Some Schick And A Surprise

I hit up Wags for some cheap Schick razors for the hubs.  Although he is a lover of Gillette Fusion, with the help of a good friend we have persuaded him to switch to Schick due to Gillette"s history of testing their products on animals.

Wags had a good B1G1 sale on the blades and razors and there were q's in last weeks Trib to make this a pretty good buy. Wags will let you use a q on a free item as well, which is what made this deal worthwhile.

• 4-4 pack Schick 5 cartirdges $11.99 B1G1.  Used 4 $2/1 q's = $15.98
• 2-Schick 5 Razor with 2 cartridges $9.99 B1G1.  Used 2 $3/1 q's = $3.99

Total for 20 blades and two razors was $21.62.  This comes out to only a dollar a blade which is a pretty good buy.  I saved $47.97 in coupons and promotions...sweet!

On a side note, my wonderful hubs surprised my with this awesome netbook.  I have been wanting one for a while to use for my couponing, scrapbooking and homeowner association responsibilities.

This was supposed to by a Mother's Day gift, but thanks to American Express' fraud alert notifications, the surprised was ruined:(  On the other hand, at least we know it is catching large purchases and notifying us that the card is being used.  I cannot say I am totally saddened by that development as I got to enjoy my gift early.  

Thanks Gary for always thinking of me and spoiling me with awesome gifts.  I love you.
