Blegh, but then it tastes like makers.
How about four roses small batch instead and we forget the sweet.

Yeah the economics of clippers and batteries vs chargers seems like a project. I have had some really bad luck with cheap clippers getting blades out of alignment and then biting me, so I've switched completely to disposable blades. They last a long time, but there is a learning curve to effective use, mostly angle and lather.
Depends how you define cheap.
If you want the cheapest expense to shave today, it is going to the nearest drugstore or grocery store and buying a bag of 2 blade plastic razors.
If you want proper shave (which you said you don't really care) then you buy a decent safety razor (or shavette)for a little bit of money (probably $50 - $200) and buy blades for like 25 cents each for the rest of your life whenever they get dull.
Probably the cheapest $/shave option is to go buy a $50 set of grooming clippers that are self sharpening and rechargeable, take care of them, and use them basically forever. But it is only cheaper if no replacement necessary over time.
The cheapest guaranteed long term option is option 2 above :).
IF YOU ARE VERY HANDY WITH BLADES and you already own some sharpening stones with grits running up to about 12k and don't have sensitive skin and you already own or can get a strop, you could probably have cheaper overall cost with a traditional straight razor lol.
Edit:
If you are super cheap and time rich, join a church that has small group meetings at other people's houses (or some other social group that meets at the members' houses but doesn't require you to buy anything), excuse yourself to shit, grab their razor from the shower and go to town. You will need to buy a scarf and make it your signature item. Wear it at all times so no one can tell thet you came with stubble and left clean shaven.
I switched to a shavette and I find it to be the best of all the worlds. No stropping, close shave, cheap upkeep.
Since I keep a beard I also dry shave the line ups, so no soap or brush or bowl clean up either.
Uh, that is pronounced "lead". You're welcome.
But the pronunciations are different word by word. French letter combos make the same sound even if they are not each pronounced the American away, which is nice as a French novice.
Overnight dry brine in the fridge with the rub on it. Both of these need to rest so when I pull them off I will jump temp and put vegetables on. Maybe squash today idk. Then when those are done I'll cut the chuck roast, sauce the pieces, and put them back in for burnt ends.
When all is done I'll yoink out the stuff inside and open the vents to burn off the extra food if there is any stuck and I'll be ready for next week!
Today is a grill day again, and the amount of space is bordering on silly. That's an 11 pound pork shoulder.
If I ever open a school I will definitely be calling it the learning hole.
I choose to believe it's this one.
What is it supposed to say?
Lamb sous vide 4h @ 132F seared over natural lump charcoal in the bottom of a chimney starter. (Start a small chimney of charcoal and put it in the base of big chimney, seared on a cooling rack 1 min 20 sec each side). Served against a mixed green salad with some cherry tomatoes.
A great turnout, except for the part where I stepped on a loose piece of charcoal and melted my sock to my foot... Learned a lesson and said some bad words.
Wife gets this Easter leftover, and I'll have meatloaf XD
