The Price , Oh Lord the price

I remember back in the day when I could buy a bucket of med grade gel at Micheals with my 40% off coupon and still get change back from a twenty. ( when I say back in the day I mean, just a couple of years ago).

That will not be happening anymore, lol.(those were the days)

I just saw that same gel product on Joann's website for $51.99. :shocked2:

And I know that the stores have gone up also.

If that was Yaley gel you're talking about, it was the equivalent of Penreco low density, not medium. I called and asked them. I swear gel is the most expensive wax out there.

If you have a Hobby Lobby around, their gel which seems to be a LP gel just went up to $34.99, up from 29.99 a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, they don't accept competitors coupons, but usually have a 40% coupon every other week. That brings the cost down to $20.00. I have used gel from Hobby Lobby in a pinch, and it seems to work fine, I don't need anything but LP, so I haven't had any concerns. I usually use 35lb buckets of gel from Candlewic and haven't checked their price lately.

Hope that helps... SteveG

The Hobby Lobby stores in Houston have accepted my Michaels coupons with no problems. You may want to try and see what happens in your particular area.
