As you know, there's a flat rate shipping promotion going on right now. If you are low on any chemicals that you use alot, I highly suggest you look at buying in bulk to take advantage of the shipping.
I find the two chemicals I use the most of is Adam's APC and GWC.
I dropped the bomb late last year and ordered a 5 gallon jug of APC through my Orlando distributor, and picked it up in person to save on shipping. As you know, shipping on a 5 gallon isn't cheap, as it is extremely heavy.
Now with the $6.95 flat rate shipping and spring sale, I did the math:
The 16oz spray bottle of GWC is $12.95, which is $0.81 cents per ounce.
The 5 gallon jug of GWC is $159.95, which is $0.25 cents per ounce.
Factor in the flat rate shipping and the 10% off going on until the end of the day today, you are looking at $22.4 cents per ounce, shipped to your door
(unless you have to pay tax by living in CO)
81 cents vs. 22.4 cents per ounce? That's approx. 73% discount!!!
Do the math yourself - a 5 gallon jug contains 640 ounces. Take the price and divide by 640. Then take the price of a 16oz. bottle of the same thing and divide it by 16.
If you can do it, I highly recommend it for the value!
