    Default U.S. Artisan Soaps Cost Per Ounce

    I am sitting here waiting on some new information for submitting my new business and decided to compare the cost per ounce on a few of the currently popular U.S. Artisan soaps. They ended up ranging from $1.91/oz to $4.00/oz. The purchase price, which ranged from $9.00 to $20.00, is not necessarily the best gauge of “Bang for the Buck”, all other criteria aside.

    This is the list I compiled. Please feel free to add to it.

    Cost Per Ounce Priced From Lowest to Highest-All in Tins or Tubs
    Stirling-$1.91 based on cost of $9.00
    Synergy-$2.00 based on cost of $15.95
    Petal Pushers Fancies-$2.37 based on cost of $18.95
    Dapper Dragon-$2.50 based on an avg. cost of $10.00
    Catie’s Bubbles-$2.50 based on cost of $20.00
    Maggard-$2.59 based on cost of $12.95
    LA Shaving Soap-$3.56 based on cost of $16.00
    Cold River Soap Works-$3.75 based on cost of $15.00
    Tiki Bar-$4.00 based on cost of $14.00
    Barrister & Mann-$4.27 based on cost of $16.00

    Interesting. Subscribed. I will see if I can think of some more.
    The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.

    The only thing I can say is with tiki I've always gotten at least 1 free puck. And the metal tons even though listed as 100g the come with 2 pucks to fill or are filled with around 200g. She really hooks you up.

    Hey y'all, this was just a simple price comparison. No one needs to get defensive. There was no implication as to quality, value, or customer service. I certainly don't purchase my soaps strictly based on cost. I just found this interesting to me. If some of you do fine, if some of you don"t, that is fine too.
