This is a BIG OL' MESS!! So, I got my Walgreens shipment minus the Deep Treatment Mask because it was out of stock. Ok, fine. I also ordered 2 of the Moisture Sprays. Since I already have some at home, I decided to take them in to Walgreens and exchange them for the Deep Treatment Mask since I've never tried it. (I live in AZ and we ALWAYS have SM products in the stores... it ain't a lot of "us"!!).

Anyway, I walk in and see that ALL SHEA MOISTURE PRODUCTS ARE NOW $11.99!!! WHAT!!

Who does Shea Moisture think they are, Afroveda!!?? Who increases their prices $2 all at once!!! This is a mess!! I am not happy!!!

Has this happened in your area??
 
What?? I just bought some this weekend at Walgreens and it was still 9.99. It was bound to happen though.
 
I don't use their products. But I knew it would be happening soon. They're getting popular so they have to up the price.
 
Here we go! I just hope this isn't followed by a "New and Improved" formula change that equates to cheaper ingredients!! Man! Just when I found a staple!

I did a treatment with it and my hair was incredibly hard. I had to follow up with a different conditioner. I ended up taking it back :nono:

To answer you question, I bought the Curl Enhancing Smoothie the other night and it was $9.99.
 
I just bought the Deep Moisture Masque. It was 9.99. I hope the price doesnt go up.

On another note. The Masque is better as a leave-in rather than a Deep Conditioner.

Thank you. That is good to know. I love the CES! Perhaps I'll take the it back for some more of that... especially since our prices are now higher.

@ the bolded, Thank you! I'm using the KeraCare Natural Textures Leave-In now and I LOVE IT! However, I can't find it on the ground and shipping can be expensive. Perhaps this will be a good alternative.
 
Ok I am kinda pissed about this Masque. I bought it at the BOGO and haven't tried it yet. I don't need another leave in. I don't even want to try it now. I might just take it back so I can see if the prices went up since last weekend.
 
It depends on the neighborhood.. The Walgreens in the more "urban" neighborhood in LA have the Shea Moisture products for $11.99, but the ones everywhere else has them for $9.99. I'd rather purchase online or buy at Target.

In AZ I'm pretty sure, it was about $10 something plus tax.

But I am not surprised at all. They are becoming more popular than ever so yeah.

Try and take it back, but if you can't exchange it, you can always add something to the DTM to make it more effective as a deep conditioner. I've read a lot of ladies have tried doing this and it made it better.
 
I though it was up to the individual retailers to determine the price. I don't think its SM jacking up their prices. Its still $9.99 on Walgreens.com.
 
This is disgusting it's 11.99 at ALL the Walgreens in my area. *smh* I remeber when this stuff was sold exclusively at Nubian Heritage on "the Ave" & I bought it for about $5 a bottle...just about 5 yrs ago.

It's all good I don't mind the price point for a good quality product. My family is loving this stuff!
 
lol and this is why I didn't jump on that wagon...
sticking with my rosewater and virgin oils
my vo5's and everyday Shea my bwc or Giovanni
most under 5 dollars and been that way
before I buy things I ask myself how long has it been out and if it increases can I still have it...
 
I haven't checked my local Walgreens. I was already questioning whether I wanted to pay $9.99 for the SM Mist. I really like the mist and haven't found anything I like as much. But at 11.99 not sure I will repurchase because it just doesn't seem to last that long.

We will have to see. Hopefully I can find a replacement if needed.
 
Just bought some today and it's still $9.99 at my Target. I don't have a Walgreens nearby so I can't speak on that.
 
Different Walgreens have different prices. The one like a block away from my house sells for $9.99 while another Walgreens like no more than two miles away sells for $10.99.
 
MY Walgreens BET not raise their prices. Target is so far away for me and Walgreens is within walking distance. I will be hot...
