Ehh it's the same shit coming up with some new gimmick to lock you in to ever-more-expensive refill cartridges. One of those Fusion refills costs like 8 cents to make and they sell em for about $3.35 each. $36 Costco 20-packs of Mach 3 Turbo refills FTW.

I got a fancy schmancy Panasonic ultrasonic titanium wet/dry electric shaver a few months ago, and when I ran out of Mach 3 refills I actually held out for a few weeks before buying more. But even the uber gizmo electric only approaches the shave quality of a decent razor if I spend way too much time going over the rough spots with the electric.

I'd consider going down to a 2-blade refill if it were actually cheaper but I don't think Costco has the Gillette Sensor refills so they end up costing more than the Mach 3.
