Pharmacy Student Shaves Time with Gillette Subscription Service

July 31, 2014 By Shelley Zurek 75 Comments

Gillette Subscription Service Saves Students

Gillete Subscription Service

The Life of a Busy Pharmacy Student

One of the proudest day of my life was when my son, Ben, started his pharmacy studies. The day was marked by the traditional “White Coat Ceremony” where pharmacy interns are given their white coats. I can cry right now just remembering the day! It marked the end of one long academic climb for him and the start of another, to even loftier heights with the final summit being a Doctorate in Pharmacy.

Gillete Subscription Service

The one thing I have noticed about pursuing a Doctorate in Pharmacy, is that the students have NO TIME! There is endless classes, labs, internships, and studying. Here’s a peek at his fall schedule for his third year of the program:

  • Up at 5:00 am
  • 5:30am–6:30 am Work out
  • 6:30-7:00am Eat, shower, shave
  • 7:00am–8:00am Drive to school and get ready for classes
  • 8:00am–1:00pm In classes and labs
  • 1:00pm–11:59pm Depending on day either go home and study OR  go to internship
  • 12:00 am Sleep

REPEAT REPEAT REPEAT

Can you see anytime in this busy student’s life for shopping? eating? breathing?

Students save time and money with a Gilllette Subscription

When I told my son that Gillette had a subscription service for its blades, he was super interested. He could see how it would save him time (shopping for blades, remembering to buy blades, getting to the store). The Gillette subscription service for blade refill is a practical, hassle-free option that delivers Gillette’s blades directly to your door. My son agreed that this service would give him one less thing to think about.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Select your blade and retailer
  2. Customize your subscription
  3. Enjoy your perfect shave

But BEN is dead broke ALL THE TIME, he was worried that the Gillette Subscription Blade Refill Service would be too expensive. He currently uses the Gillette Fusion razor and while he love the razor, the blades are not cheap. He constantly is watching for sales. I told him that Gillette’s best blades are more affordable than you might think—only about $1 a week for most guys. Ben loved the idea of that and wanted the link to sign up!

Introducing a great new product: Gillette Fusion ProGlide with New FlexBall Technology

As my son currently uses the Gillette Fusion ProGlide razor,  he was very interested to try the Gillette Fusion ProGlide with FlexBall Technology. It’s the first razor of its kind, with a new handle that adjusts and pivots to respond to the contours of a man’s face for fewer missed hairs. Using existing Fusion ProGlide cartridges, the new handle lets the cartridge move in three dimensions for maximum contact. The result is #ShavingRebuilt for an entirely new shave experience. Men who tried the Fusion ProGlide with FlexBall Technology prefer it 2-to-1 over the standard Fusion ProGlide. And since it uses the same blades as the Fusion ProGlide, it’s a one-time purchase for a 2X better shave.

When my son finished using the sample we were provided by Gillette, he asked me if he could have the sample razor and the other one that was still in the package. Obviously, he was won over by the new technology. The end result looks nice, don’t you think?

What about your college age son? Would he enjoy getting his Gillette shaving products via subscription service? After all, Gillette is a company that delivers precision technology and unrivaled product performance. For over 110 years, Gillette has been improving the lives of over 800 million men around the world. It seems to me the subscription service is just one more step!  Head over the Gillette Subscription Service and check it out.

    This service worked so well for him. It makes sense, too, and in this day of ordering online and having everything from food to groceries delivered, it would be very convenient to also get your razors this way.

    This sounds like a great service for my Hubby! He always fails to tell me he’s out of razors after I’ve finished my shopping trip for the week. He already uses the Gillette Mach 3 razor so this would be perfect!

    My oldest son is 13 and he’s not quite ready to shave just yet but would definitely be a nice service for a college student.

    My oldest son is still only 10 and I don’t even want to think about him shaving yet. It’s amazing how fast they grow up though.
