The last time I bought razor blades for me or my husband was three years ago. For $15.
We still have a bunch left--about 2/3 of the box.
A safety razor was one of those plastic-free switches that saved us a whole ton of money. I bought our safety razors at Life Without Plastic, and found our razor blades on Amazon here. If you want to know more about shaving with a safety razor, read my post about it here.

If you aren't familiar with Plastic Free July, take a look at this post. Basically, it's a month-long challenge to reduce the amount of disposable plastic you use. It's a great starting point if you just want to give cutting out disposable plastic a try.
My first Plastic Free July was in 2013(!), and this month I'd like to highlight some of the things I do to reduce my plastic use, and some struggles. Many things are part of my routine at this point (buying in bulk, refusing plastic silverware, etc.), but I am not perfect, and I always find this challenge to be a good time to refocus and look at what trash I am actually producing.
