Jazz--
go online. :) Check out my posts in the Cinnamon Update thread on the diet board and then google....you'll find lots of reputable places, but where I buy them is a good deal with flat rate shipping, too. :)

Hi Jazzo,

I'm in Brampton (originally from TO), and around here, you not only have to go to a health food store (try Healthy's, or Noah's), but you also have to ask them to call you when it's in. It disappears THAT fast!!!! :shock:

After searching for 3 weeks, I finally managed to get ahold of 2 bottles for $16, 120 capsules of 500 mg per bottle. It was funny - when I called on Sat, they told me they had 2 bottles left. I asked them if they could hold them for me, and they said that they'd better, otherwise, they wouldn't be there when I came to get them!!!! LOL

I'm planning on keeping a full bottle in the house, so that I don't get caught w/out if I have a hard time getting more!

Good Luck!!! 8)

But she dident know much about the pills, so the bottle says twice a day that sounds safe right???

OUCH!!! That's expensive!!!! :shock:

I paid about the same for 4 X as many... Healthy's has a website: www.healthys.ca There is a list of stores here: http://www.healthys.ca/contact.php

Now, on my bottles, it says to take 2 - 500mg capsules twice/day. Now, I'm hypoglycemic and I'm finding that a little strong to start out with - it REALLY brings down my blood sugar!!! :? So, I'm going to cut back to 1 cap twice/day for a week, then increase it to 2 caps in the morning and 1 cap at night , then 2 caps twice/day.

If you are taking Met, be carefull!! I didn't realize how strong the cinnamon is until I started taking the proper dosage! :shock:

Jess--

I just looked at my bottle next to me, and it's the cinnamon BARK. I buy the NOW brand and am very pleased. The capsules are large (I take one at a time), but I can deal with large pills if it helps my overall health, KWIM? ;)

And since you're looking at Netrition, check out their Dreamfield pasta. Everything's a flat rate shipping, so you can stock up on this pasta (at a pound per box it's worth the flat rate shipping!). I do, and I love it b/c my DH and DS don't know it's "good for you pasta" and I can eat it w/o problems afterwards.

For you Canadian girls: I know we're comparing apples to oranges in terms of currency and taxes, etc., but Netrition has 120 capsules of 600mg each for $6.99 USD. It seems way cheaper than what you're paying and getting, but again, I'm not sure how this would convert in to CAD. Also, do you have to pay taxes on things that are shipped from the US? If not and you can avoid the PST and GST (I think that's right--it's been about a year since I've been to Windsor), then it would be a wonderful deal for you! :)
