No surprise really. Have you seen the prices of Gillette razor blades recently? Proof that monopolistic pricing isn't good for the consumer.Originally posted by xoggoth View PostThey used to work, now they don't.

I did buy a Tesco Value electric shaver recently, cost about £3.25. Only Value thing I've bought for a long time! It's not great but it works. I just got it for the glovebox for times when I arrive at the airport and then remember that I wanted to shave.Originally posted by tim123 View PostThought the same myself.
Given that the first one I bought in 1970 something cost around 20 quid they ought to be given away with Cornflakes by now

So I suppose that is the real price for a basic electric shaver.Comment
