    Substrate shipping

    So I love aspen sani-chips and I usually buy it from the NPP website. However, I noticed today that the shipping prices seemed to be higher than normal. It's over $15 per bag to ship. I know they're big bags, but last time I bought, the shipping was almost nothing.

    Anyone know somewhere else that sells this where the shipping might not be so high? (I know I'm picky and cheap, heh. I do what I can)

    Thanks.

    Spoke too soon!!! Amazon has the exact same product for cheaper right now. Two bags for $33 instead of two bags for $47. And that includes shipping.

    Don't mind me, just asking questions I can answer myself! :rolleye2:

    Im pretty sure i asked you before but how do you like the sani chips? I think i asked you in a thread an simply forgot to chevk back on it, my apologies :)
    Ive been considering switching from newspaper since its not all too pleasing to look at, even though theyre in tubs lol. Also a link to the product on amazon would grant you a virtual high five from me lol :D

    Here it is!!!

    And I love it. It looks great and the snakes don't seem to have any objections to it. It's soft, odor-free, resin-free, chemical-free. The bags are huge and ship quickly, but not too heavy. They pack them so tightly. My last 2 bags lasted me over 5 months (though I only have three snakes).

    Ok sweet, im gunna get them next paycheck. I only have 3 snakes too right now, soon to be 4, so it should last me for awhile. Even if i have to buy it like 3 times a year, an extra $100 for the look of it seems worth it to me lol

    Wait a minute it says that the price on sale is $6.79 for a 2.2cu foot bag?
    then shipping would be $12.47
    Is that the size bag you bought or is there a bigger size? Or did it just go on sale the day after you bought it lol?

    EDIT: nevermind i figured it out lol

    Ha, sorry for the confusion. Yes, it comes in 2.2cu ft bags. Total cost was $14, shipping was $19 which isn't bad for a total of 40 lbs. I would recommend buying at least two bags at a time since it's actually cheaper that way.

    Thanks for the heads up. Funny thing is, it's being sold by the same company as NPP on amazon. :gj:

    I usually will check the amazon price, the price on NPP, and the price on petfooddirect and order from whomever has the best deal that day since they all change up so much. (I buy cat food/litter and bedding from there.)
