I don't have a car so have to get it delivered, and the cheapest organic oils, coconut and palm, I can find put my soap at 1.40 a bar!!! Yikes! I can get 55lbs of coconut for $166.39 and 55lbs Of palm for $125.14. Are there cheaper places that deliver? Thanks in advance for the help. |

Posted - Oct 01 2006 : 08:28:08 AM Okay I re-redid my math. This is making my brain numb. So if an oil weighs about 7.8 lbs per gallon, then I am NOT getting a great deal. It would be about 900 ounces for $166.39. Not great. Any places online with cheaper organic oils? Thanks for not making me feel dumb! :) |
