On behalf of Gillette and Dollar General I have some smart grooming tips for the men in our lives to share. They’ve enlisted the help of Celebrity Stylist Marcus Geeter to share some of his insights on how to get a great shave using products from Dollar General and Gillette.
I’m not big on male facial hair (LOL!) and so when my husband and I first started dating, I made sure he was always clean shaven . I have one gripe though, rather than shaving in the morning, my husband shaves before bed…so that means when 5’oclock rolls around, he doesn’t have a 5’oclock shadow….he has a 10’oclock shadow .
The September P&G brandSAVER and October P&G brandSAVER will feature some great deals on Gillette products, all available at your local Dollar General store. Unlike some other “dollar stores”, you can use P&G brandSAVER coupons at Dollar General to get high-quality P&G products at great prices.
The September P&G brandSAVER is arriving in local newspapers Sunday, August 26.
September P&G brandSaver offers
• Buy any Gillette system or disposable and get $5 off a Gillette Fusion ProGlide Razor
• Buy any Gillette system or disposable and get a MACH3 Razor FREE
• $3 off any Gillette male disposable
Twitter Party:
There will also be a #GNO Twitter party with Mom it Forward on Tuesday, September 25th and they would love for you to join them! They will be discussing shaving tips and pet peeves and some of the great Gillette Products you can find at Dollar General.
I am disclosing that Procter & Gamble provided me with product samples and are providing the giveaway prize packages. The opinions in this post are based on my own experiences and beliefs of this product, were not influenced by what I received and the company did not ask nor expect me to positive a positive or negative review.
In order to help you and your man with your shaving needs I have a Prize Pack for two of my readers which includes:
• Gillette MACH3 Razor
• Simply Venus Disposable Razors (4 pack)
• $20 Dollar General Gift Card
