After spending too many hours checking prices on 4, yes only 4 supplements, I noticed that if you go to a site called Price Drop it will find where the price is the lowest.
I thought the site was for tires or baskets or whatever. Never thought typing in a full name of a supplement with brand name specific and mgs. would bring up anything, but it did.
And on one item I saved over $20. Nice surprise! Two others I saved big too.
Also noticed E-bay was where I was sometimes sent by Price Drop and their prices were a lot lower too. Again, I'd not have thought to try E-Bay for purchasing supplements.
I did find one price lower than Price Drop that they didn't list, but I knew of it from months ago when I searched for days to find it.
E-Bay also had a lot of free shipping too, without a minimum purchase.
Thought this might be of interest to you if you need to save dollars.

- It's always nice to get a price reduction. Sometimes reputable sources do use eBay yet but it can be impossible to know just who is behind many eBay sales,
be sure to check the authenticity of any products from strangers - and the freshness, storage conditions over time, safety, etc. Sometimes, it can really be a wonderful deal and the product is okay.
Yet, also be aware that there are a lot of counterfeit supplements in circulation, OTC products and Rx circulating. Just be sure to check each time, even when from the pharmacy.
Best when purchase can be made directly from the direct source and, often, they will run sales, too or even offer individual discounts if you call them and ask if they are
"in the position to offer any discounts for those of low income with chronic health issues."
I've had a few say, "yes" over the years.
Items that come from overseas are more likely to have been exposed to high - very high - heat for a long time. That can just ruin it. It's also very hard to trace the safety. -

Appreciate your comments Keebler. Thanks.
I just received two of the packages and all was fine so far. Even better looking than from previous companies- although they were the exact same brands.
Expiration dates were 2019 and 2020.
And the savings made me smile and jump up on the sofa and holler- "I did GOOD!"

Thanks for the info! I always price checked everywhere I could to get the best deal. Green Dragon Botanicals Buhner herbs have just been listed by myself and a brand new ozone machine on ebay.
I was able to sell 12 bottles of Eleuthero by Herb Pharm last week. Next I'm putting on Woodland Essence tinctures and Banderol and Samento, etc. I always bought in bulk to save on shipping but since our son is well I have a lot left over.
