I've noticed that since the boycott the local stores here in Malaysia only seem to be stocking Gillette products. You can peer all you like but there's almost nothing else, just a few cheap 'Exacta' blades or the store's own brand.

Well I moved over to Schick and the Leaf system after that advert and could do with an extra handle and some more blades for my travel kit. Again, same thing, every local store just had full rows of Gillette, so I just kept on walking...

Finally found a store with some Schick Quattro handles and some blades, so grabbed a kit. Went to the cashier, a young man served me.

As he handed me my change he said "Come again". I said "I will. Nice to see somewhere still selling something other than Gillette.."

"I know!" *bit of a smile

"Gillette ran this advert.."

"I know!" * big smile

"Ah. Well I'll never buy another Gillette product again. I see most shops seem to be hiding anything other than Gillette"

"I KNOW!" *huge grin and nodding emphatically

I realized he couldn't say anything directly and risk getting in the shit, but the huge grin and eye contact, that bro knew what's up.

Fuck Gillette, and fuck anything from Proctor and Gamble (P&G)
