I've been using a Gillette Sensor razor as long as I can remember, probably 25 years. It's getting fairly difficult to find replacement cartridges at reasonable pricing, and the 5 packs are priced at about $9. Does anyone know of sources online for modestly priced razor blades? I'd really prefer not to change razors. I've tried the Mach 3 and hated it; I didn't like the way it trimmed sideburns or under the nose. Any other suggestions? Thanks!

Why not go old school with a vintage DE razor. I used the sensor for as long as I could then went to a Fusion. I'm now hooked on the DE and you can get a years worth of razors and baby's butt shaves for the price of one sensor refill pack

Forgive my ignorance, but what's a "DE"?

It's a double edge safety razor. Brand new ones can be purchased or vintage gillettes can be bought of ebay the blades to take than can be purchased in most drug stores on specialty shops online and the blades start out ate around $.10 apiece.

Or go real old school and shave with a straight edge.

Costco runs a great deal on razors...52 for $ 20...can't beat it!! I have been buying my razors (Gillette Custom Plus) there for the past few years.
