It's just the beginning, Gillette. Right now you think that it's temporary backslash and everything is going to be fine after few months. Let me assure you, it's not. It will get worse. You see, I'm still using Gillette but only because I already bought this. But once I run out of it, then I can promise that I won't be buying anything from Gillette (or P&G). There are many more like me. So sit back and observe how your sales are dropping at increasing rate. Enjoy the panic. Enjoy the witch hunt when you go after your marketing department. Enjoy that angry shareholder meeting where they collect scalps of your senior management. And there's absolutely nothing you can do about it. Burn in hell, you fuckers.

[–]forme2c45 points46 points47 points 6 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

I've seen discounts on p&g products, especially on the Gillette products, like I've never seen before.

To think the p&g corporate mgmt backs that one division and their alienating, hateful advertising of men, just blows my mind. Businesses spend lots of money to recruit new customers and retain existing customers. But p&g? They pay sjw types to separate their customers from their products. Brilliant marketing isn't it? It was so effective, I no longer buy any p&g product.

I go out of my way to make sure my purchases are not made by p&g. And to my pleasant surprise, their competitors make better products at usually cheaper pricing. One problem I had substituting was laundry soap but now I know which product to use (Percel), I'm waiting for it to go on sale and buy a couple of jugs of it at the membership club store.

Other companies should learn from this p&g mistake. Love your customers, don't hate them.

​

Yeah, I did noticed that too. I though maybe it's just me. I use to use Tide detergent.. but now I am experimenting with persil, kirkland brand, etc. I notice Tide seems to be on sale more often now. Glad I'm not just seeing things.

[–]6stringfreedom 4 points5 points6 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Don’t forget Tide and Cascade is P&G. I switched to Arm&Hammer and Finish. Works just as well and save a little $.

[–][deleted] 26 points27 points28 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Exactly. I haven't been to a baseball game since the strike in like 1990 something when I said I'd boycott. Same thing when the United breaks guitars video came out.

Gillette same thing, shame me shame on you, I use a safety razor now.

[–]SirLostit0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Just bought a trial for one of these. I didn’t want to get into a subscription hassle which so many online companies seem to do... I have the added hassle of having to supply razor blades to the whole family which gets expensive (x4)! Fuck Gillette!

[–]Pyro1119210 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah, that's basically me. I've already spent the money, and the product's not at fault, the company is, so take it out on them and not the razor. I'll just use up the rest of my razors and then move on.

[–]FutureIsManAndRobot[🍰] 52 points53 points54 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Gillette is part of P&G, don't forget to boycott their other brands too. Look at the back of every products, if you see a P&G logo don't buy it. Unilever is another conglomerate that owns many similar brands that can easily replace P&G products.

[–]Miggymoggy40 points41 points42 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

For a list of Procter and Gamble products to boycott visit https://www.pg.co.uk/brands/ or https://us.pg.com/brands/ and you can easily find alternatives, so you are not tied to a men hating company.

If people boycott all those products just for one week. They'd lose millions upon millions of pounds.

[–]DerdyG22 points23 points24 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

You can also try flipping the product over and look if it bears the Procter and Gamble logo so you do not have to memorize these brands.

I wish they would come out with a sincere apology and acknowledge their fuckup. Regardless... I’m out. No Gillette going forward. The fact they doubled down has made it most certain I will never go back.

[–]ihnrva22 points23 points24 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Never get back with an ex, or someone that hates you.

You make a point I can’t argue against....

[–]cenaluc3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Even if they come back now, it is too late. They confirmed after the mess that they don't need us as customer and they don't need our money.

[–]attongirdeaux1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

They did that oh wait no they didnt. They just abandoned the SJW ad approach but no apology.

[–]realChebz15 points16 points17 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Still boggles my mind, what did they think would happen after that "ad".

[–]Tyler7892282 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

They probably thought that whamyn shop for all the family and will buy their products...

[–]Yashugan001 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

They expected us to take it up the xxx and not complain about it. After all, hasn't Homer Simpson been lampooned for decades, isn't every commercial making a laughing stock of men so a wise and knowing woman can show up with the advertised product to 'fix it'. They legit cannot understand why the second they jump on the bandwagon they suddenly get singled out. They forgot who their core audience was. That's why.

[–][deleted] 13 points14 points15 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I really try to be an equally decent guy to everyone (relationships notwithstanding). When they say I'm innately uncouth, hostile, and a sexual deviant, what do they expect?

There's a trend of being oblivious to cause and effect within the SWJ and feminist movements.

[–]iwanttheblanketback5 points6 points7 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Because this is marxist duplicity. They accuse others they dislike of what they are doing.

Eh, at some point in time I'm sure that thing will be able to interface with automated kitchen appliances so that "Alexa, make ham and cheese sandwich" becomes a valid command.

hahaha at that point, we’re so far away from β€˜ham and cheese’ bing real food...we should expect jetson protein pills to be dispensed by Alexa. I mean women’s lib..

Did you know that Gillette mach3 product advertising strategy (launched many years ago) are given as example in marketing textbook in university ?

I think that the upcoming end of the Gillette brand will also be included as textbook material soon..

[–]GoodMan_Gone3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

Any Wilkinson Sword shavers here? I have that in my sight as follow up for Gilette. I'm working through my stash: I paid for those already and I'm too cheap to just toss them away. I am amazed how they have managed to ruin such a powerful brand with that crap add... I am an active advertising avoider so I actually almost missed the whole freakshow. What was the current loss counter? 12 B? I mean: WTF?! 12B down the drain because they wanted to be fancy.... I know it'll be peanuts for P&G. But stil... I can't imagine such a number.

[–]Cizzar6 points7 points8 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Idk where you are from, but in Germany you can buy cheap knock-off mach 3 and other Gillette blades (been doing it for years). It's a win-win situation as it makes them lose money and you don't have to change your razor ...
Have a look online, I'm sure you can find something...

[–]ThaiEscapePlan5 points6 points7 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

P&G took an $8 billion charge against the value of the brand. An acknowledgement that the brand is worth less than what is was valued on the company's books.

P&G came up with lots of excuses (beards, cheaper competition, etc.). they did not own up to the negative effect of their SJW advertising.

But look at what they do, not what they say. Now they claim they will be touting and celebrating men as heroes.

After you hired a radical lesbian feminist to direct your commercial and told men what collective, toxic masculine shit they are? No chance, fuck you.

I already mailed my shaving handles back to head office and will never purchase another Gillette product.

Fuck off and die Gillette.

[–]GoodMan_Gone0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Though i respect your choice I just shave them off until I'm out. I refure to pay even for the shipping costs. it's not like my package will arrive at Mr Charlotte Dike, CEFFFEEOOOEEEOEOEOOEO toptoptop manager the magnificent's office anyway.

[–]ThaiEscapePlan1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It cost me a buck in stamps. I felt it was a worthwhile gesture. And that sort of shit gets noticed in a company if enough customers do it. Gillette (and P&G) know that they fucked up with the series of SJW commercials. They pissed off a significant percentage of their loyal (older) customer base in an effort to appeal to Millennials who either sport little soyboy beards or are not brand loyal to the same extent. Good job all round.

[–]FlyingSexistPig2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Looking for replacements for my Gillette blades. I see the name Wilkinson, and that seems to be what all these reviews are for. But when I do an Amazon search, it looks like Wilkinson is OWNED by Gillette!

[–]iamalurkeronly0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Wilkinson is owned by http://edgewell.com/brands/

[–]FlyingSexistPig0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Okay. So what’s up with the Gillette Wilkinson branding then?

[–]Tyler7892282 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It probably means that the blades fit all safety razors, including those from gillette and Wilkinson.

[–]x6x6x619822 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Love to see how people change brands directly correlated to one ridiculous ad. People who have been loyal customers for 20 years, ahh so wonderful!

[–]FalsePositiveRethink1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

That's me.

20 years exactly.

Not going back.

[–]RealBiggly1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Even here in Malaysia I see the Gillette stuff on sale and ZERO sign of the Shick stuff (which is what I've switched too). That's a classic sign the store can't shift the Girlette shit so is removing choice and offering a discount.

I don't care too much about the lack of Schick (Stichk? Let me go look.. Dunno, just says Quattro Titanium. anyway...) because I've recently invested in a Leaf.

What's a Leaf? Well I love using a double-edge safety razor on my face, but struggle with them for shaving my head. The Leaf takes conventional double-edge razors but takes 3 of them, with a swivel head. Think "Mach 3 combined with classic style and engineering', by a compay that has nothing to do with Gillette.

You only need 1 1/2 blades, as you snap a blade in half to create 2 blades. The 3rd is optional and I probably won't use more than 2.

So can I shave my head with it? YES! I'd say it's 90% as good as the Mach3 or Quattro cartridges. Takes a little more time, as a bit less flexible but really it's like a cartridge. I was soon swiping around hard and fast, with no worries of cuts or nicks.

Not cheap but I'm not boycotting Gillette and Proctor and Gamble because I can't afford them; I'm mancotting the cunts because they're cunts. For life.

[–]Magnificent_Penis1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Hopefully unrelated.... Reminds me a little bit of the Beluga razor I ordered, but that never showed up off of Kickstarter. Still salty over that $95.

[–]RealBiggly0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Mmm, seems VERY much like it! Happily my Leaf already arrived, and there were Youtube reviews and stuff.

I once backed a kickstarter, for a dry-bag with 4 compartments for organizing things. It arrived OK and is a nice bit of kit, the main bag of my ultralight hiking set-up. However after the horror stories of failed drone launches I've quit backing anything now.

[–]SupplimentalDevice1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

but all those comments are from January 2019, which is nine months ago...

[–]Yashugan001 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Also, have been using Mach 3 since I had to shave I'd say 15 years ago. My point is, they'd have me as a costume at no extra effort for them. But they just HAD to go out of their way to take a nice dump on men. Won't be buying again.

[–]AfghanDrake0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Another reason to stop with Gillette is that Disposable Razors are bad for the environment, seems like an obvious choice to me.

[–]MrBluePill0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

We have to be thankful really. Because of this I enjoy a superior shave. It also got me thinking about what I use in general and now I've switched to soaps like the 'Triumph and Disaster' one it's cheaper and results in less plastic waste than shower gels. There's actually a huge untapped market in small footprint products for men.

[–]TrumpTrainer0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I admit I am still using Gillette (one more blade left) what is a good one to switch to (Australia). I tried a cheap one from ALDI and it sucked.

[–]SpaceCowboyBop0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Once my blades run out, my Mach 3 is going in the fucking bin. Not even the recycling, I don't want to chance someone else picking it up and buying more blades from them.

I need to be more careful checking my other products for p&g also, I keep forgetting, but I tend to buy mostly ALDI cheap brands these days. Save a fortune.
