I just noticed a neat way of getting the price down for the packs of 8 blades (normally £9.49, which isn’t all that bad) to as low as £8.07 - with free delivery. On Amazon, there’s an option to subscribe - in other words to have them delivered every X number of months. Bear with me! If you subscribe to buy one pack, you get 5% off. But there’s an option to get 15% off, if you subscribe to order five things in the same month. So, assuming you’re prepared to buy 5 packs of 8 blades, you just have to subscribe to order one pack five times, i.e., five separate orders (if that makes sense). Once received, you can then just cancel the subscription without penalty.
Hope this helps,:D

the grabbit board is for short term time limited deals, which this one isn't so it should be on the Shop but don't drop board.
I'll PM a board guide to move it there for you.0
