Why so expensive? Honestly, this is about 5 times the price this product is available for in stores.

Here in Massachusetts, I don't see Tab being carried at all; that's why these Amazon sellers can demand these prices.

Yeah, it's insane. Though, it says in the product description "Four/ 12 oz 6packs", so I'm not sure if this is a pack of six or FOUR packs of six, in which case it's not really a bad deal (like, $.71/can or something like that). Still, probably better just to get it at a store.

The shipping and handling on all the beverages and certain other products makes the online alternative here at Amazon very cost prohibitive. I would have to be in near desperation for something to even consider buying a lot of grocery items on here. There are many other websites that offer less costly S/H that can be used, which is something for Amazon to keep in mind if it wishes to remain competitive in this arena.

In the stores these are $4 - $5 dollar a bag; this brand is anyway, never tried this product. I wondered why the different price for same products? Is it because of different suppliers? Is this soy?

It looks exactly the same as in the store and smells the same. I would think that retailers online can get a bulk discount and not have to pay all the fees stores have to pay.

I have no definitive answer for this question, but I suspect it is just natural. I would expect organic to be much more expensive.

Because they are currently so hard to come by. I think a lot of the ones listed so high are trying to capitalize on a supply and demand thing. In my case, I had purchased it for this amount from an amazon seller last fall, but ended up with two come the holidays.

Even if it comes out to cost the same how much would you price getting rid of all the garbage you no longer will be taking in from commercial bread, especially if you have kids? Please read this link. It is why I'm here looking for a bread machine ;)http://realfoodforager.com/why-i-never-eat-commercial-bread/

This is about the same price in our local grocery store. I hate going to the store so if it is about the same price I prefer to just order it online instead of going to the store.

Initially this was a purchase I made at Target once they had it in their weekly sales. I usually waited for it to hit the $9.99 mark. This review was made almost one year ago and as many of you who are aware of the rise in prices and the lessening of products, this item is hardly ever available at Target anymore. Infact I no longer see the 48 mega I only see the 36 mega and I now get that at my local grocery store on sale for $7.99. I hope this helps & to avoid the drama, the original review will be removed soon. As will this once the feature is available.

Because straigh talk refill sometimes is in shortage even in Walmart. Scarce product always have a higher price than its own value. Thanks a lot for your understanding!

The dealer who is selling for $1.93 on Amazon is charging $4.99 shipping. So, it looks like a better deal but it might not be. If you were buying 6 of them at $6.92 that would be $41.52. It does cost more to ship 6 separately than together most times, so we can give a break on selling quantities, and that is why buying 6 together you can actually save almost $4 by buying the larger quantity. You have to look at the shipping costs also in order to see if you are getting a better deal or not. Sellers are really not trying to rip off customers. They are usually trying to give you the convenience of in home shopping and make a little income also. Personally, with the price of transportation right now, I would much rather put my gas money into paying someone to deliver it to my door rather than go from store to store to store, trying to find what I want.

I completely understand your concern about the cost. However, to reduce this cost I wait for a 20% off coupon to babies R Us and re-use the pouches a few times (they hold up really well because they are a bit more ridge in structure then the one time use store pouches. Some foods rinse out better than others... and because the pouches are see through you can ensure they are clean before re-use. I hope those two hints help reduce the cost for you.

The Amazon price is way too high. you can order a case from your health food store for much cheaper, or go to Walmart.

Agree. This is one of things that annoys me about Amazon. I know I can get the product label somewhere else, but why should I have to do that? Very annoying. Initially, I put up with it because I thought Amazon has the best prices, always, but I've discovered it's not true. For example, l bought this product locally for $8.39 regular price, same size.

I do not know why. I buy it now in supermarket and it cost less then on amazon.

Because Amazon doesn't do the math (not that they have to). They are provided a product from a seller for a certain price, and adjust their mark-ups accordingly I am sure. If the seller makes a base price with a package deal that is more expensive than buying the same amount individually, then that is their prerogative. Dumb, but at the same time they are likely to catch many un-savvy buyers in this product package making their packaging deal worth it to them. While it is unfortunate, it is the responsibility of the buyer to look at the different products and choose the best option for themselves. Hope this helps!

why use this instead of vegetable or bacon oil etc? this little 6 ounce bottle is very expensive and wont last very long. $10 gets way more good olive oil or coconut oil or flaxseed etc. i am just curious why this is ranked so high, high cost for very little you get.
