This happened in a one pound shop or 99p, I forget. I was looking at buying cell batteries for
watches and such-like. A gentleman approached me and said that he would quite happily nick the item for me and to meet him outside and give him .50p for the items. I suspect the man might have been a drug addict. Words did not fail me, I said that I would prefer Mach 3 blades from Boots and I would give him half the value.

Fairly sure that could be classed as entrapment.

Does anyone buy "Mach infinity" blades from somebody in a public house?
I find it hilarious that somebody could be stupid enough to fall for the one-upmanship in razors and be enough of a cunt to buy stolen property.
I now have this vision of perfectly-shaven, thieving morons being the target audience for shaving products, then I realise how these companies make a profit.

Gillette should just rename all their products "Gillette +1"
That way every time they decide to add another blade they won't have to redesign all the packaging

Good idea.
It would save them millions in design fees.

Imagine how long razor heads are going to be in 20 years time...
