Cost-Effective Shaving Options

[MilesMotion]

I've been impressed with the results from using the Jack Black Beard Lube, but I've also heard great things about other gel shaving products like the PAA Cube 2.0. With the cost of some high-end shaving creams and soaps, I'm wondering if it's worth exploring more affordable options that still provide a great shave. Has anyone else made the switch to a more budget-friendly shaving routine and seen similar results? Are there any other products out there that offer a great shave without breaking the bank?
