Electric Shaver...

I forgot to mention, one of my latest internet shopping gadgets included an electric razor. I have always been curious and wanted an electric razor but I never wanted to pay for one. I figured why pay for an electric razor if it stinks??

I have always used a razor and luckily I have the type of job where I don't have to shave everyday. Since I don't shave everyday, I get lazy and I forget to change the razor blade. I guess it isn't so much that I am lazy but more because I am cheap. Thus, I cut myself or get razor burn, blah-blah-blah.

In any case, I got a deal on an electric razor for $20 bucks. I figured it couldn't be difficult to use the electric razor but sadly I was mistaken. One, the razor hardly cut and two, it didn't really save me any time.

Yes, I know an electric razor won't cut as well as a razor but I didn't realize that it doesn't cut very well. It has taken me about 3 days to figure out how to use the razor decently. I even had to call a friend to ask him if I was using the razor correctly. Only then I find out that the cheap electric razors stink and I wouldn't get a cut unless I buy one of the expensive ones.

This again leads to that vicious circle. Do I pay a lot of money for an electric razor just to try it and test it to see if I like it or do I just keep using a razor?
