The Wall Street Journel said:Jeff Hagan, a 43-year-old investment banker in San Francisco, doesn't need to buy another blade or razor for the next four years.
That's because last year, tired of trying to keep up with the cycle of shaving-system upgrades and price hikes, Mr. Hagan bought 100 Gillette Mach3 blades. Then he found oil that helps double the blades' lifespan.
"I'm basically investing in blade futures," Mr. Hagan remembers telling onlookers at Costco as they marveled at the pile of cartridges in his cart. "That's my hedge against getting forced to upgrade."

I use disposable Gillette "Mach 3". They come in a 3-pack for about $7.50. They last a decent amount of time, but I have to admit that every time I buy them I think, "Damn, that's a lot for disposable razors". I would try something different as long as it was cheaper and wouldn't cut me. BTW, I totally agree with this article, the price of razors now a days is ridicules.
So, what do you use?
