Me, and that boycott will never be lifted. I have do more than boycott. I write the company off as a provider ans snap my wallet shut for all eternity. I'm not the forgiving sort.

PaleZucchini · 2020-07-19T22:56:55+00:00

Hardcore. It's permanent. Unfortunately their stock had not taken much of a hit but who knows if the fed pumping money has helped them.

Cryptolexicon · 2020-07-20T00:46:51+00:00

I am never buying a Gillette product again. Plenty of fine options out there.

noimtheotherone · 2020-07-19T21:15:41+00:00

Haven't bought any gillette blades since that commercial. My wife liked the blades, so finding something that worked for her took a minute. Got her the leaf razor and she loves it way more than gillette.

American__Jedi · 2020-07-19T23:15:16+00:00

I stick with my boycotts. Only saves money. HBO, Target Stores, Gillette, cottonelle, Amazon and Nike. Soon Disney but I paid a year in advance for Disney plus so won't renew after that's up.

drycleaningray72 · 2020-07-19T21:37:37+00:00

Of course I am.

2020-07-19T22:04:09+00:00

Have been since. Just buy wilkinsons/bic anything but not gillette.

If you do a little homework you can easily find good alternatives. I recall dishwasher soap is mostly P&G in the stores. Look online and you should have more options.

oneofchaos · 2020-07-19T22:46:11+00:00

I grew a beard after that embarrassment of a commercial, was always clean shaven before. No regrets!

alphastrike212 · 2020-07-19T22:04:25+00:00

No way. Took me a year to get rid of all my Ariel pods but I am done for good now. I won't lift it until they go bankrupt. Also, happy to save money with less branded alternatives.

cherryantacids · 2020-07-19T22:09:04+00:00

I've been using a safety razor for a while now but the hardest things to give up were Dawn and Gain. Less harder was Old Spice, because I was already annoyed with their recent ads anyway. Oh well, I'll scrub a little more to avoid giving P+G money.

Bestoftherest222 · 2020-07-20T00:57:02+00:00

The boycott is wonderful, only because you have decent odds to finding cheaper alternatives. Such as taking up safety razors, cheap and easy.

DannyTTT55 · 2020-07-19T21:19:47+00:00

I have, the two products I used were Gillette razors and Metamucil

kaydawg23 · 2020-07-19T22:11:21+00:00

Fuck Gillete, I use the last of the shit I bought from them to shave my balls

This one hits true.

RoboMandrake · 2020-07-20T02:45:26+00:00

Their products are on the permanent 'do not fly' list with me. I was surprised how many of the P&G products I'd been purchasing regularly. Now it's zero. Still have about 3 years of shaver blade cartridges - will change to something else when those run out.

deadBeefCafe2014 · 2020-07-20T02:19:34+00:00

No more P&G here. I’ll buy a store knock off if I need to, but for razors, I went back to Schlick for blades and Phillips for electric.

Feels good, too.

altair43 · 2020-07-20T05:14:16+00:00

Haven't touched anything from them. Found out there are better alternatives that I never knew. Makes it even easier!

2020-07-20T08:27:24+00:00

I switched to a non-branded generic electric razor when they shit on men with their dumb adds.

beardedbliss · 2020-07-20T12:39:02+00:00

I haven't touched a razor in almost a year. Of course, that is more because I love my beard. Still...even if I were to shave, it wouldn't be with PandG products. I will keep my "toxic masculinity" thank you!

jasa99 · 2020-07-20T19:31:38+00:00

Yeah its a forever boycott.

davisyoung · 2020-07-20T01:41:54+00:00

I still use Dawn dishwashing liquid but considering transitioning to one of the fancy brands like Method once current stock is exhausted.

dg85254 · 2020-07-20T03:49:21+00:00

I wish i could.

closer_1 · 2020-07-20T04:05:57+00:00

Yeah I don't buy any of their products. Went with Barbossa (sp) for my shaving cream and switched to an old school razor with the blade you screw in.

MotherOfLogic · 2020-07-20T05:06:46+00:00

I use a cutthroat razor. Never going back to any other method.

IceyBear988 · 2020-07-20T08:46:45+00:00

I never liked Gillette shavers, they're expensive, they're unreliable, and again they're expensive! I used and tried multiple brands and Bic is the best so far, even the cheapest ones.

Honestly? I find nothing from Gillette is good, same goes to P&G. There are cheaper and more reasonable products from other brands.

Amnesia2508 · 2020-07-20T11:55:49+00:00

Always.

Of course I am. I respect my enemy if he behaves honorably, but I never forget traitors.

eewing99 · 2020-07-20T14:36:19+00:00

That gillette ad pushed me over into a solid safety razor and replacing blades on the cheap. Using a lather has made a ton of difference in price and how my skin feels. Never going back to disposables

Hateussoyboys · 2020-07-20T15:24:05+00:00

Gillette who, P&G what?

There are so many non woke, no name alternatives, cheaper and better...

Grew a beard.
