Kymber Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I have been using MillCreeks Bases and love, love, love the Soy Lotion. My problem is 3 things. Shipping on a case is outrageous (about $28 per case)....so I thought OK order 3 cases or maybe 4 (emailed to see if there is a 200# cheaper rate). The cost stayed the same for shipping per case.......now I know that UPS gets cheaper on every box you send to the same address but obviously they are not passing that on. My other problem is that for 2 years in a row they have run out right at the busy season......and I would think they could plan ahead a bit better. The final problem is I am going to need to buy in major bulk (the lotion) and they have no other discount other then case price(I have emailed and asked for pallet pricing and it is the same as gallon/4pack pricing they have no other discounts). I have a wholesaler that has put my lotion in their catalog, it already flies off her shelves and with the catalog going out I am going to have to make sure I don't run out....and honestly afraid to trust Millcreek to have it. I really really hate to change lotions, I don't want to change lotions but man thier freight is terrible! And running out every year has irritated me and rather scary when you need it and can't get it. Are there any other lotions that are the same as Millcreek? Or as good as Millcreek? I honestly think theirs is the best I have tried.......but doing major production with the above problems is scaring me! Anyone have any thoughts on this?

nay2120 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 My friend makes soy lotion also, and the one she uses iswww.soywholesale.comI think this lotion is incredible. I had thought about getting into lotion also, and had tested many, and this one I liked the best!!hth, Renee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildangel112 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I use the soy lotion from The Candlemakers Store and it's wonderful. Our biggest seller in b&b, along with the soy body butter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
