Father's Day Guide: Dollar Shave Club Subscription #razors #giftsforhim


This Father's Day, give a gift that keeps on giving with a subscription to Dollar Shave Club. Razors have gotten really expensive and they certainly aren't fun to buy. Dollar Shave Club is an affordable way to refill the essentials each month by shipping them directly to Dad's doorstep. (Mom may appreciate it as well, if she typically shops for them.)


How Dollar Shave Club Works:
Step 1: Choose your blade.
    • The Humble Twin (2 blades--$1.00 a month + $2.00 shipping)
    • The 4X (4 blades--$6.00 a month)
    • The Executive (6 blades--$9.00 per month)
Step 2: Add on any one-time extras to your first box. 
Step 3: Enter the shipping and payment information.

Currently, Dollar Shave Club is running a special promotional offer of just $1 for the first month of service to try it out. That includes a weighty handle, 4 cartridges and free shipping. After that, you pay the regular rate each month. It's that simple! You can manage the account to ship every other month, suspend  a few months, or cancel the subscription completely after your initial order. Just log into your account and change the settings to meet your needs. You can also change plans at any time. When you do, you'll receive a new razor handle for free.

 Note: You must cancel your subscription or it will automatically continue the service.



The First Box
Dollar Shave Club allowed us to try the Executive subscription for free, so that we could share our experience with our readers. Our first box included the six-blade razor and six cartridges. Subsequent boxes will include only the razor blade cartridges. Sometimes they throw in a sample here and there as well!

Add-on Extras
Dollar Shave Club also has loads of shaving products to accompany the razor. Check out some of the options below. Then, head over to the site to add them to the monthly box. The site itself is definitely targeted toward men and you may get a kick out of the marketing. If you prefer, you can also send Dad a gift card, so that he can choose his only razor and add-on goodies himself.
