Her money comes to you through PRX. Hi I'm Jean Chatsky. Welcome to Her Money. Very happy to have all of you along for the

ride today. You know one of the things that I hate paying for?

I hate paying for disposable raisers.

Every time I go into the store, and this often happens with my kids when I'm loading them up for a trip off to college or summer

camp or we go into the store and we're loading up on toiletries and you come to the aisle

where you got to buy disposable raisers and could there be a

product that has become more and more expensive over the years?

We know there's a big pink tax on disposable raisers. They cost

significantly more if you buy the ones that are made for women as if you buy the

ones that are made for men, which is why I buy the ones that are made for men and I can

tell you from personal experience it makes absolutely no difference but I

learn from today's guest Clark Howard that it is very possible to take one disposable

razor and make it last an entire year. Not that I do this, but I try to be better with my disposable raisers than I have in the past.

And the way that you do this is you just wipe it off on a towel.

Evidently, disposable raisers do not dull as frequently as you might expect that

they would unless you leave them in the shower wet. So when you get out of the shower and you wrap yourself in a towel just take 10 seconds, even a fraction of 10 seconds and wipe that disposable razor off on your towel, you will save yourself a lot of money.

And that is just one of the things that I've learned from my guest Clark Howard over the

years.
