Herbs of Grace July Sale!

This is probably my 2nd most favorite mineral foundation from over 20 that I've tried. I may have mentioned this before, but this was my sil's top pick from the samples, Lumiere, Everyday Minerals, Monave and I don't remember the rest, that I gave her to try. Before Herbs of Grace she was a Bare Minerals user.

Onto the sale information:

Mustard Seed Market Coupons

Did you know Mustard Seed Market has coupons? I didn't, but then I don't live close to MSM which is a crying shame. I see some great deals through my email ad quite often. Have you ever shopped there? What do you think about them? Would you like to see match-ups or the deals posted here?  If so, please let me know and I will share those here.  Also if you know the regular prices of the coupon items I would love to know to share with others that are thinking of going more organic or shopping Mustard Seed Market.

I also discovered MSM&C carries Mambo Seed coupon booklets at the customer service desk!

 

Mountain Rose Herbs Monthly Specials

I have had wonderful experiences shopping with Mountain Rose Herbs. I don't agree with all their philosophies, but the products are top notch with some of the best prices I've seen, especially the Organic Virgin Coconut Oil. At the beginning of each month MRH runs specials that last the whole month.

Medco Order Arrived!

 

It just arrived, all three bars of Out of Africa Organic Shea Butter Soap African Black! Also to my surprise it came with a $1/1 Out of Africa Lip Balm Coupon which imo is really a rebate since it needs to be sent in with a receipt. There is no limit per household which is nice if one finds a great deal on it.

Also I just want to add that this is not the Raw African Black Soap usually made in Ghana ( contains mainly cocoa pod ashes, plantain skins ashes, and palm oil, processed together), but I believe the ingredients (20% organic shea butter, palm kernel oil, aloe vera, olive oil, plantain skins, essential oil, purified water) are still quite pure and it got great reviews. So mainly it is a shea butter soap with plantain skins added. It was made in Benin West Africa and 5cents for each bar helps provide education to the children and PBS programming. Not crazy about the latter, but I hope it truly does some good. I'll let you know how it works for us.

Sale at Tropical Traditions

Free Shipping Code~FREESHIP5810

Tropical Traditions is having a sale on Peanut Butter 50% off, Refined Non Certified Organic Coconut Oil Buy 1 Gallon Get One Free (this is still more cost effective at Mountain Rose Herbs including shipping), Virgin Organic Red Palm Oil 50% off and BOGOF Natural Deodorant. 

Has anyone received their free pint of Coconut Oil? I'm still waiting.

Coconut Oil Brand Comparison

 

I want to take a moment and break down the different brands and processing methods of Coconut Oil to make an easy comparison on the best deals.

I'll be sharing three great companies: Mountain Rose Herbs, Nutiva and Tropical Traditions.

There are different processing methods which I'd like to break down and then once you decide what is best for you, you can see how prices compare between the three companies. I'm also comparing gallons to gallons because if you're going to buy and use it for a lot of cooking and baking that is the size to buy.

My personal choice is the Unrefined Dry Milling.

Wet-Milling (Gold Seal Tropical Traditions and Nutiva Raw)

• No Drying Before Pressing
• Cold-Pressed
• No Chemicals
• Unbleached
• Unrefined
• Undeodorized
• Mild Flavor
• Mild Scent 
• Certified Organic
• Highest Cost

Dry-Milling (Mountain Rose Herbs Virgin, Nutiva Virgin, Tropical Traditions Green Label)

• No Drying Before Pressing
• Cold-Pressed
• No Chemicals
• Unbleached
• Unrefined
• Undeodorized
  
• Moderate Flavor
• Moderate Scent 
• Moderate Cost
• Certified Organic (except TT has one organic,but not certified which imho would be just as good and you save a little more money)

Cold Pressed Refined (Mountain Rose Herbs, Tropical Traditions Certified Organic and Non-Certified Organic)

• Cold-Pressed
• No Chemicals
• Bleached 
• Deodorized
• No Flavor
• No Color
• No Scent
• Great for SkinCare
• Okay for Cooking
• Lose Some Health Benefits

Directly from MRHs:This physical refining process is entirely acceptable and approved under organic processing regulations. Note that the items added during the process (citric acid, activated charcoal, and diatomaceous earth) are classified as “processing aids” and not additives because they are entirely removed during processing and are not found in the finished product.

Refined (Wal-Mart's LouAna)

• Chemicals Used
• Bleached 
• Deodorized
• No Flavor
• No Color
• No Scent
• Low Cost
• Okay for Skincare
• Little Health Benefits Left

Free Coconut Oil!

Tropical Traditions Offer

I'm so excited about this offer! I love love Organic Virgin Coconut Oil. The best price I've found in the past is at Nutiva and Mountain Rose Herbs. I'm going to check out the sales at Tropical Traditions today to see if they now compare. In the past TT has always be priced higher, but that could change and I've never asked for price matching so that may be something to look into as well. I can tell you that all three offer Unrefined Coconut Oil which is what you want. This is not what is found in Wal-Mart. Nutiva has a slightly milder taste than Mountain Rose Herb and I'm anxious to see where Tropical Tradition is on the scent/flavor scale.

I have used the Neti Pot. It's a little weird and tricky in the beginning, but it does work well.  I was able to snag one for Free, over a year ago, at Rite Aid with the SCR(Single Check Rebate). I've seen other offers since then too.
