Amazon doesn't sell this product; it is sold through a third-party merchant. As such, you have to watch the shipping costs. The Herb Garden adds a $4 flat shipping fee + $1 per-item shipping fee. Compare this to buying at Fred Meyer - I saw them for sale last night for $2.99 per tube. Not accounting for sales tax, you have to buy more than 8 tubes to be ahead when buying online. Any less than that, and you're better off buying at the grocery store. I’m a huge fan of Burt’s Bees lip balm, but I don’t find this to be a good deal.
