Ladies I used to buy mine at Wholefoods for $20+ for 16oz.
I went to VS this weekend and not only did I see cheaper priced coconut oil, but also Aubrey Honeysuckle Rose for $8 and change. I pay $10+ for it at Wholefoods.

I'm so happy I walked in that store this weekend.

nice! it's extra virgin too!

coconut oil can't be extra virgin, due to the expelling process; it's just virgin... but either way, whatever they want to call it, that's a dang good deal

Thanks for the heads-up, FYI, Puritans Pride carries it too, for 5.47 for 16 oz, sometimes they have $1 shipping, too~

i remember reading a thread about coconut oil on here a minute ago... a member had a really good article about why no coconut oil can be called "extra" virgin. i can't find it for the life of me, though

here are a couple of sites that may help explain; once i find the one i read before, though, i'll come back and post it.

My hair hates oil, but I see they have the capsules...I wonder if they would benefit my hair. Hmmm

Thanks for pointing that out, I remember reading that as well.

However that's the name on the Nutiva container and so, that's what I wrote. Whether it's true, not true I'm not sure I really understand it the difference anyway.

just pointing out a bit of general info. basically, some companies charge more $$$ and call their coconut oil "extra" virgin, while claming that regular ol' "virgin" coconut oil is dangerous (because of the saturated fat content). the truth is, both types of oils are exactly the same! when in the bind, go for the cheaper one. as long as they're both unrefined virgin oil, they're the same thing.

I am heading to the Vitamin Shoppe!

I went to Vitamin Shoppe with the intention of buying the Nutiva Brand, but the lady there informed me that Nutiva makes and packages the Vitamin Shoppe brand, so I bought that for less. I had it in my tea and I cooked some chicken with it and the taste of both was great.

I got mine!!!!! I walked into the store and asked for the Internet Price
Won't need any Coconut oil - For about 4 months!!!
