Best disposable razors for legs!

What do you use to shave your legs? I'm looking for some cheap disposable razors that don't rip my legs to bits. I've tried the cheapest disposables but just find I cut myself. I currently use Gilette razors for women - the one with five blades, interchangeable heads with blue handles. I do really like them but find them really expensive. Is there anywhere I can buy these cheap online or where is the best high street stores to buy them from. Alternatively open to recommendations of cheaper razors.

Thanks all!

    I get my Gillette razor heads from Costco, not sure if you have access to one of those? I've not found a better razor!

    They have the same Gillette razors your talking about (Venus or something like that- sorry, am too lazy and tierd to get up and go check!) in disposable razor form, I know as I bought some not long ago. I got 3 for around £4.50 which works out to be cheaper then getting refills when you work it out per razor. I got mine in Sainsburys but have no idea if they are still on offer there or anywhere else. Maybe try Boots and Superdrug?

    I buy men's ones - they tend to have more offers than women's, and they're usually sharper too.

    From Costco I bought a 12 pack of Simply Venus at £5.99 to which VAT should be added only yesterday.

    I love my Venus, but I've found the Bic Soleil range pretty good also, as they do ones with the moving head. I have to have that... otherwise I shred myself! They are quite cheap, particularly if you have a bodycare near you.
    :p Don't worry, be happy :p

    I'm with krlyr...men's disposables are far cheaper and do exactly the same job,also men's shaving foam. Gillette Blue ll plus.

    I like the venus divine ones, but they are expensive so I go on ebay to get them. Sometimes a seller will have them in bulk buy

    Another vote here for Simply Venus 2. According to mysupermarket.com they are currently £2.89 in Asda for 8. £1.69 in Waitrose until 10th April, £3.59 in Boots and £4.00 in Tesco & Sainsburys

    I've never done well with men's razors, I find the heads too clunky and I don't seem to be able to hold them the same. I do use male shaving gel though.
