My original post:

      I have extenuating health problems beyond celiac disease and so am in
need of lots of herbal, vitamin and mineral supplements. Many of these can
be found at Super Supplements(SS) for a very good price.  Recently I have
discovered Swanson Health Products which sells their own brand but also a
number of other well-known, respected and safe brands and which has much
better prices than SS besides which, their shipping is always the same:
$4.95 for any quantity. I have no affiliation with this company.

sells name brand supplements that is cheaper than Swanson?

Comments from members:

 

-I find the best vitamin/supplement prices are at Costco.

-I have many allergies and can tolerate Naturemade.

-NOW brand is less [expensive] than many other brands.

-NOW brand causes sensitivity problems.

 

My Comments:

 

-I did some cruising through the websites comparing prices for a few items I
regularly buy.  Swanson is the cheapest but their non-Swanson brand
selection is limited.  Iherb is next best but I am not sure of their
shipping fees.  They do have a fairly wide selection of products.
Vitaminshoppe is much higher priced than those two but similar to SS.  Since
I was looking for brand name items I did not price puritan or doctorstrust
and I do not shop at Costco.   Thanks to all who gave some in-put.  It was
much appreciated.
