Re: Topical Anesthetic BIOFREEZE - Re Costs -

[Guest guest]

In answer to some of your questions, I don't know how Lana got

started on it, but got started because I gave her a tube to

try. Just two years? I have been using it for at least ten,

probably longer.

When I was getting it through my Chiro in Anchorage, I was paying

about $15 for a four ounce tube of gel. Down here, the last time I

stocked up I did it through the school. They were charging $8.

Right about the end of my last term, they closed the book store and

stopped carrying it. Along with some really good buys on books, I

bought all that they had left.

The prices I have seen for mail order through some of the massage

supply places run about $6-7 for the 4 ounce tube. The best price I

have found on-line is a place called Quality Medical Supplies. They

list it for $5.60 each with a 5 tube minimum order. The three ounce

roll-on goes for $5.80 each, again with a minimum 5 on the order.

I don't know what they charge for shipping and I have not had any

reason to order any because I still have three or four left around

here someplace.

As far as I'm concerned, , I'll take anything you can get. I'm not

picky! I'm sure it will be GREAT for Mike! Thanks for doing this!!!

Love Lana

p.s. sent me a sample tube!!! THANKS again, !!! :-)

Oh Gosh, I can't believe what you paid. Even now you're paying too

much. I'll look up the current prices I can get. What sizes do you

want. What do you use? I'll check, get back to you & we'll get it

done in Buffalo. Maybe I can even get then shipped to Sue so I so

I don't have to fly up with boxes of them. (When I need it, I

alwasy buy a box of 12) Honestly one reason is that I also, wind up

giving a bunch away.

-----------------

I tend to use either the four ounce gel or three ounce roll-on. I

think the gel packs more kick to it, especially if you don't follow

instructions and REALLY shake up the roll-on before applying it. On

the other hand, the roll-on is convenient for quick use and for

situations where you need to put it on and don't have a place where

you can wash your hands immediately afterwards.

There is no way I would ever need or use the larger sizes.

I know what you mean about giving it away. I have probably given

more of it away the last few years than I have used.

Let me know what you find out. I would be interested in getting a

few more myself because I am down to 3-4 at the moment.

I know that I am going to need at least one whole tube because I

intend to give WWW you know who a full Swedish, relaxation, massage

in Buffalo and substitute the Biofreeze for the Biotone. (Now let's

see if she really is reading all of these posts all the way through

to the bottom, and if she is, how long it takes before she threatens

to impale my bottom with her broomstick).

LOL!!!!! Mike, I'm pretty sure she reads them all the way through, and if I

were you, I'd buy body armor! :-)
