    Default So. How do you get YOUR glycerin?

    I finally ran out of the small brown plastic bottle of glycerine which was left over from my wife's Christmas time bath oil gift making. I sauntered up to Walgreens and could not find it. The guy in the pharmacy said it would be in by the laxatives! Who knew? Not me! None there so I went over to CVS. No dice. I was about to leave and I spotted these. Yep, Glycerine suppositories! No more dropper as it is built-in and sets on it's side without making a mess! It is great for travel too.

    Now I suppose I shall be the "butt" of some jokes! Tom

    I find them at CVS. They are well hidden and in the creams aisle. John aka Cabledawg had told me the same thing... I looked at every aisle at CVS and couldn't find it. Spend half an hour and finally gave up. So we went together and in less than 1 minute I was able to pinpoint the bottles.

    I am an E-Cig user (vaporizing instead of smoking cigs), and the DIY shops sell 120ML bottles of VG (Vegetable Glycerine) for very little money.

    Here is the link if you are interested in Glycerine in the kind of quantities you used to be able to get at Walgreens.

    Vegetable Glycerin USP (VG) 120ml Vegetable Glycerine for Electronic Cigarette [VG120] - $6.99 : Quality brand e cigarette and e cig liquid from ecigexpress.com

    About 7$ for 120Ml.. Lasts forever..

    Best of luck!!

    That's funny.
    I had a lady inform me that I was making it up at a local pharmacy, found it 2 minutes later in the same store.

    Found mine in le gourmet chef next to cake frostings. Aparently you can mix it with frosting to make them easier to spread or some such, I don't know about that but it works and at $1.58 for 2oz it was worth it.

    CVS in the skin care section. Directions tell you to dilute with water and put on rashes and chafing to heal.

    I had read threads about it, so it only took me a couple minutes to find. That, and pure luck.
