I did it too! Went to change blades today, two came out! I'd been shaving with two. So when i pulled another new one out of the package (wally world wilky) got two more, this time i checked. put one back, one in the razor. I'm expecting a better shave tomorrow.
It works better with just 1 blade

Hmm.
And they say two heads are better than one.

Hey, its O.K. Everyone makes error's, so don;t worry about it. Just be sure to check things out before you put razor to face. 
I feel bad. Should we tell him?
You're using a cheap Mach 2.

I remember someone trying this on purpose. I think he said it wasn't better or worse, just different. I think I'll take his word for it and stick with just one blade.
I guess, except there would be no gap between the blades. The blades would be "staggered" very slightly (one sticking further out from under the cap than the other), but there would be no space between the blades like on a cartridge.
What a surprise! Haven't heard of that before...
Was there two blades in a single wrapper??
I haven't heard of this before, either. The blades together must have felt thick when loading, no?
What about putting some sort of place holder between the two blades to create a gap?.....then we can try 3..no 4....noo 5....nooo 12 blades in one shave. Oh my God! We'll be millionaires 
I think this is fascinating. Based on what's been said here, it sounds like the first blade might lift the hair, and the second blade cut it off low. This in theory will result in a smoother, more comfortable shave. I doubt it will ever catch on, mind
Will it work? No. Will it catch on like wildfire with the masses of shaving sheep? Distinct possibility.

Great minds think alike. Without buying any special machinery, tooling, or technology, we can blow right past Gillette, Schick, etc. and go straight to a double-digit blade count. How could this possibly fail (said, unfortunately, only partly in jest)?
i believe this is fool proof
Seriously though it might be worth a try. Maybe cutting down an old blade to fit in between. Not going to try it in my slant though

I think I'll patent this... poor man's mach 2
