Reputable On-line Retailers

The benefits of comparing on-line retailers.

We all want the cleanest, most effective, convenient, and affordable on-line and local goods available. 

It’s a competitive world, and on-line retailers want your business.

Here’s what I found over the years.  

  1. Many offer coupon codes, special offers, and sales alerts in addition to their standard discount pricing.
  2. Savings may be from 10–30% and one can sometimes use multiple coupon codes per order for additional savings.
  3. Checking multiple sites for price comparisons may further reduce overall costs.
  4. On-line retailers are competitive in pricing, but even the best sites may vary in price from $1-$3+ per item which can add up. Take the time and shop around for the best deal. 
  5. Signing up for promotions, coupons and sales alerts usually requires providing an email address. If you’re inclined, it’s well worth receiving those extra emails.
  6. If you wait awhile between purchases, they’ll send a “we miss you” or “welcome back” email coupon sometimes good for 20% off. That’s a gift. 
  7. Codes may have expiration dates so it’s important to take note of that.
  8. Using and stacking codes, a smart shopper (me) can save up to $50 on some orders and at the least $15. That’s budget friendly. 
  9. Some, not all sites, offer either standard free shipping as a special promotion or free shipping attached to a specific purchase amount ($).
  10. Company sites may offer the best price for a particular product with special promotions or introductory offers. Not always but sometimes. It’s good to check. 
  11. Company sites do offer a lot of information on the individual products which can be helpful when comparing and researching possible purchases.
  12. Local retailers and big box stores may also offer savings.

Before I finish, just a quick reminder. I can’t stress enough the importance of taking great care and consideration when purchasing products. Many can be harmful if not used correctly and/or may be contraindicated (not to be used) for a particular condition, medical issue(s), medication regimen, or constitution.

Please discuss your plan for new products with a qualified practitioner to ensure safe use especially if you are taking medications, other supplements and herbals, pregnant, breastfeeding, very young, or elderly.

My favorite name brands sold by retailers.

Although many companies offer their own brand of products, I tend to use and reorder name brands proven and true by my experience. This doesn’t mean that the others aren’t as effective, but I can’t vouch for something I haven’t used.

It’s always best to research the product, reviews, quality of ingredients, and manufacturing practices.
