Boots points too so should be a little cheaper.
Plus GreasyPalm 2.25% cash back I think.

    I have always used Philisave's and find them very good . Be warned though it can take a week or 2 for your skin to get accustomed to the new cutters.
    I have done a quick price comparason and it seems very reasonable. Try a google search as well though for more info.

    Shows that it's out of stock online.
  • I went for the HQ8894 model which I managed to get from Ebay for £102.

    Noticed that there are plenty on Ebay at the moment
    Matched betting profits since 11/10/06 = £1,554

    you can get the next model up, ie. one that is waterproof and has a little display screen for about that much at Costco (have to be a member tho).
  • Did anybody actually get one of these delivered? ???
    I bought one the day of the post and after waiting some time had a notice through say I had cancelled, which I hadnt >:( ,I presume this could be a boots trick when they run out of stock? :-/
  • One thing to bear in mind with these Phillips shavers is that replacement cutters are REALLY expensive and can end up costing as much as a new shaver. If I remember rightly they're about a tenner each so making it £30 for 3.

    I got rid of mine for that reason

    Try looking in store as they're out of stock on the website. My local boots (Broadmead, Bristol) had at least a dozen on the shelves.
  • Turns out they were lying as "when your order reached the warehouse, the product was not available" so obviously that was me in the warehouse without realising it! :) Note to self, stop midnight warehouse walking.

    However a gift to all you MSE's out there as I sure as hell wont be using it! >:(

    I would like to offer you the promotional code of EEMK99, which will give you a discount of £5 when you spend £10 or more on one future order placed on
    boots.com. This code is valid until the end of 31/12/04.

    Enjoy! :D
