    waste of time even if its 2 mins,its like email/details phishing.last time they ran same promotion thousands singed up thread was nearly up for a year,eventually maybe 5 people in total got their's after numerous complaints and emails to Gillette.

    find such promotions worthless,why not put price of say 1e on their site and run with it,rather getting 20 people singing up with same emails,and eventually sending out like 100 to make it false giveaway.

    Will delete it so. The offer is probably linked to my email address by the discount code. Might also explain why not many got it last time

    There was no code the last time.

    Can't be bothered after the last time.

    OP, Zero thanks from the hairy bunch around here.

    I got an email from gradIreland about a free gilette razor.

    https://www.gillettefirstreal.co.uk <Code not working for others>

    What's the code?

    I can edit the html to make it not readonly... might work

    Threw out my Mach 3 and bought a Lidl razor after the shenanigans last time. Gillette can whistle for any money from me in the future.:mad:

    that's why we don't pay them and just get the free razors (sometimes) :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,085 ✭✭✭✭mrcheez


    Incidentally the best trimmer I've purchased is a Gillette Styler which is great for styling stubble etc. Completely waterproof too, so great to use in the shower.

    Cheap too. Downside is, it's battery-driven, but I can get about 10 sessions out of it per battery.

    So Gillette aren't all bad ;)

    I have to repeat the above... whatever went wrong with the last offer, it soured an already expensive relationship with Gillette...

    It's a cut throat market.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,903 ✭✭✭frozenfrozen


    I actually received the one from 3 years ago or so!


    I now use double edge razors.. but I definitely received a free one from them the last time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,196 ✭✭✭MonkstownHoop


    #neverforget

    I don't shave anymore, that's them told!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,569 ✭✭✭Special Circumstances


    Somebody find the link to the last one please, what an epic PR foul up!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,933 ✭✭✭daheff


    After the last episode i changed to Wilkinson....Not being biased...but imo a much better razor...blades last longer & cheaper too.

    so in an ironic way, gilette did me a favour by not sending me the 'free' razor.

    Still boycotting Gillette as they used Thierry Henry in advertising and certain things I don't forgive quickly.

    I've boycotted their products since so it backfired on them.
    I now use the Shark 5 blade from Lidl.

    I just stopped shaving. That'll teach them.
