HSN: A $250.00 Razor?

April 19, 2011 at 10:05 PM Leave a comment

High school kids were standing outside my local grocery store the other day asking people to pick-up simple items poor and homeless people do without. One of the items was disposable razors.

As a food bank volunteer I know razors are coveted but scarce so I forked over six bucks for a 12-pack.

Three days later I see this:

$249.50 for a “Hair Removal Kit?”

Are you kidding me?

That would be — in essence — $250.00 for a cordless razor.

Go here people:

$24.99.

Donate $250.00 to yourself or to your local homeless shelter.

Oy.

Amazing what people will buy.
