Gillette Razors now nearly £10.00 for refills

Hello
Anyone else noticed how expensive the Gillette fusion razor refills are now?
We were going to get some in Morrisons and they used to be £6.97 ish - expensive enough - now they are £9.97 ish. Wow!
Have we missed something - is the packet bigger or something?
We went to Wilkinsons and bought a pack of 4 for £8. The lady in there said they had added an extra blade and uped the price massively.
What is going on?! I know inflation, credit crunch etc but this takes the michael.

I noticed that a couple of months ago, it's now a pack of 5 rather than 4 and they have seriously upped the price!:j Debt free since 31/01/08:j

£8 for 4 is the same as £10 for 5

How long do they last you..? I find that a pack of 4 will do me 6 months.I shot a vein in my neck and coughed up a Quaalude.
