Candybee Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I'm wanting to switch from buying those playtex dishwashing type gloves you get at the store to boxes of disposable gloves. Any suggestions what type are good for working with soapmaking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasBrat Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I buy mine at Costco and they work just fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I use Nitrite or Nitrile (can't remember which, I'll go look a bit later) gloves. They come in a box of 100 pairs for $11.00 or something like that - they are the clear ones, and I get them at either Rite-Aid or Walgreen's. Both have the same thing at approximately the same price. You can also get them at Uline, but they are more expensive, and then you pay shipping on top of that. Not a good combo IMO Oh and I also get the powder-free if possible because the powder makes my hands sweat. (even though they are supposed to do the opposite) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) Thanks. I was looking at the Nitrile non-powder ones they have at Webstaurantstore.com They are only $4.29 for a box of 100. I use this site a lot for kitchen stuff I can use with my soap or candlemaking. I thought the gloves looked good because they are allergen free and latex free. Not sure if I want powder or non-powder. But I remember my dentist uses the powder kind and her hands are always powdery and whitish when I see her and don't think I want that on my hands.

LOL I thought they were cheap at Walgreen's. Maybe I'm quoting the wrong price but I don't think so. I'll have to look them up at the webstaurantstore.com for sure!!

Jcandleattic Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Ah, well, I just went and looked, it is a box of 500 pair, so it's actually 1000 gloves, for $11.00. I don't feel so bad anymore. I think I saw the 1000 and thought it was 100... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 They sell a case (10 boxes of 100 for 1000) for $38.99. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 We don't have a Walgreen's in my town and I don't have a Costco membership. I refuse to pay for a membership to buy a box of gloves. Besides, Costco is 30 miles away from me so that's extra gas money too. Will check some of the other stores I shop at and see if they carry gloves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
