I found cheap Dollar Store house brands work just as well as Gillette. Half the price of Gillette.

Reminds me of when Dicks Sporting Goods whizzed in the face of their customers by implementing its own form of gun control. As I understand it, Dicks has since closed 84 stores. Gillette just whizzed in the faces of its man customers. I presume that Gillette (P&G) will feel its mistake in short order.

I've bought Gillette razors for years and have been happy. No more.

I am switching to Harry's. Gillette can stuff their feminist, anti-male agenda up their front h*le and sell leg hair razors to their soy-boys.

"No. We don't have ads that attempt to turn men into something they are not - some sort of metrosexual whatever. If that is what you want gentlemen ... then the door is right over there and I don't want to waste my time.

But if you want to sell your products to men then make no apologies for men being men. We have ads for men that will make you money. "

The whole New Coke thing ultimately worked out very well for Coke, strangely enough. New Coke itself was a disaster, but the whole thing brought a lot of people back to Coke proper.

That’s a good choice since you could then observe her making it. I sure wouldn’t trust her if she was out of sight in the kitchen.

I wouldn’t buy another Gilette product if they dropped the price to a penny.

Let them make their money selling razors to metrosexuals and she-men.

“Heard on TV Gillette said they aren’t backing down.”

Their corporate headquarters can go up in flames for all I care, and the same goes for that Aussie/Limey Kim broad.

I never paid much attention to the brand of razor’s I buy.

But they taught me to avoid Gillette for life.

Gillette’s competition needs to formulate an counter ad to this.....

Last week I ran out of old timey single edge Schick injector blades. I then forgot to add them to the shopping list. So, I scrounged around in the back of the drawers and found a freebie Gillette razor - the kind they put in your mailbox.

I shaved with it and it was OK. When this hubbub ensued, I went and looked for a date on this Gillette freebie. A coupon on the box had an expiration date in 1993. Since I’ve been using that Schick razor for decades, it’s possible I had never previously used any Gillette product.

For sure that’s the last time anything Gillette will touch my hide.

“Gillette says they aren’t backing down”.

LOL!!

Yeah, well that ain’t how it works. Only someone dumb enough to greenlight an ad campaign like that in the first place would say that.

See, the idea in advertising generally is to get more people to buy your product. If, on the other hand, your advertisement instead insults your customers, causes widespread indignation and outrage, and results in your customers to say “No, F You, I’ll Never, Ever Buy Your Product Again” Guess what? Your ad campaign sucks.
