Wal-Mart Couponing

A few days ago I went to Wal-Mart. This wasn't a planned trip but I decided to use up some coupons that will expire soon. I had a Wal-Mart Gift Card that paid for what I owed. Here's a few things I picked up.

 I lost the receipt for this trip but I know I paid $11.00 and some change using my gift card. The razors alone without coupons are worth more then that. I believe if I remembered all the prices correctly this was between $33.00 -$35.00 before coupons. NOT PICTURED-3 Candy Bars that my boyfriend ate before I took the picture.

Gillette Venus & Olay Razor Review

I have been able to try the Gillette Venus & Olay Razor. I have always loved Gillette razors and the brand, so I was excited to see these two amazing brands come together! This razor has 5 blades to get a nice close shave and Olay moisture bars to help hydrate your skin. 

This Razor Claims To:
-help lock-in moisture to your skin for less dryness
-you do not need to use shaving cream with this razor
-has good control from the soft grip handle
-Adjusts to a women's curves even on those tricky areas like knees and ankles

*First Impressions*
The packaging was a bit big and bulky. It does include a nice razor holder to stick in your shower. I thought that was great! I like the nice sparkly yellow color on the packaging. The razor handle itself I found to be pretty and the color yellow is an instant mood lifter! The Olay moisture bars smelled really good! I wanted to test it out right away!

*My Thoughts After Testing this out*
-Pros-
The Olay moisture bars are great! You really do not need a shave cream or gel when using this. The 5 blades gave me an extremely close shave leaving my skin soft, smooth, and silky. I also noticed this took me way less time then my usual routine. This razor was simple and easy to use. It also does provide great control and I had no nicks or cuts. This has turned into one of my favorite razors! I'm loving this and will buy this in the near future!
-Cons-
The moisture bars are gone pretty fast. After one good shave you will notice they have already disappeared quite fast. I got about 2-3 good uses out of it. The third use the bar was barely there anymore. The blades were still sharp so I did use it a few more times with shaving gel. Since the moisture bars do not last long, you will find yourself buying plenty of re-fills if you fall in love with this razor. This could become a bit pricey for some.

Notice the "LOVE IT OR 2X MONEY BACK"  GUARANTEE
You have nothing to lose if you end up unsatisfied with it!

Overall I think this razor is great! I'm completely loving it right now!
