    If your dad doesn't already use this brand it's worth remembering that the mark up on replacement blades is around 4,750%.

    That's why Gillette gives them away, or in this case is able to charge £5.00 and market off the back of Father's Day.

    But at this price you can throw it away after using the 4 included blades up and go back to using your old razor. I might buy another one for the 4 blades and shaving gel.

    There is also an ongoing thread here for where to find bargain fusion blades.
  • Worth checking that this item contains all the products it should have. I unzipped mine last night to discover that the mini moisturiser is missing.

    Apparently each store is only getting a small number of these...and, with Staff being able to put things behind for themselves, you'll probably find getting one pretty difficult.

    That's probably right. I went into my local store last night and they did have the fusion for a fiver but it was just the manual razor with two blades (reduced from £7.99). Not a gift pack in sight!

    Did you ask the SA? In my local they had the usual razor alone in the shop, but the £5 gift packs were in the backroom, the SA had to go get one.

    I was lucky - managed to pick up a couple iof these from my local Co-op this lunchtime.

    There were not many left though and when I went to pay the SA he mentioned getting one for himself :)
  • I went to two stores and they had no idea of the promo and had nil stock - it made me realise why I don't shop at the Co-op. Went to Boots where I found them selling the razor with 2 blades half price for £3.73.
