You can get biotin really cheap here. I think they also have inexpensive B-Complex.

And I get my Essential Fatty Acids which contain Flaxseed Oil and Evening Primrose from a health food store here in St. Louis called Wild Oats. I only pay $4.99 for 100 tablets.

I'm still on the lookout for a cheap, yet effective multivitamin myself.

HTH,
Jen

Vitaminshoppe is dirt cheap. If there isn't one in your neighborhood you can go to the VitaminShoppe website.

I'm with Jen. Puritan's Pride is the way to go for superior quality with inexpensive prices. The current sale of buy 1, get 2 free ends tomorrow, so defintiely check them out soon.
Coupon code for $5.00 of is 332371, expires April 30.

Their organic flaxseed oil is actually quite good. I'm like Jen in that I do have a preference for Flora's flaxseed oil the best for me.

1). I order vitamin's from Puritan Pride also, but I saw some biotin at Wal-mart for $1.39 (100ct---1000mcg) and I've used the biotin from Target it was like $2.39 (1000mcg/ 100 tablets.) right now, I'm taking the Puritan Pride biotin, but my hair did grow while I was using the Target brand, and I'll probably buy it again, or I'll try the Wal-mart brand.

2).I get my B 50-complex from Wal-mart; it only costs about $3 for 60 tablets (I think).

3). I think Sam's club is also good for vitmains. They have Flaxseed oil, Evening Primrose and Fish Oil for only like $5 or $6 for I didn't check the ct, but I think the bottle had 200-500 soft gels.

4). Sam's Club is also the best place for MSM. The Sam's Mark Brand. For $12 you get 300 pills, and they're 1000mg.

5). Right now, I'm getting ripped off with the multi because I'm buying it from GNC (UltraNourishair), but I usually purchase it at the first of the month, so I can get a member discount. I get 90 tablets for $13 (lasts a month and 1/2. Some online multi's like Country Life's Maxi Hair and some others are cheaper, but then you have to pay shipping and handling.)

******By the way ladies, GNC has a sale on their Pro Performance Whey powder Protein right now. Comes in flavors strawberry, vanilla and chocolate. It's only $21 for a 3lb container (if you're a gold member it'll only cost $17). That's cheaper than the PP brand.

Walmart has a new hair skin and nail vitamin for like 6 or 7 dollars and it has MSM and other vitamins in it.
