NOW Foods Erythritol Pure Sweetener - 3 Pounds - $8.27 FSSS

3 Pounds of NOW Foods Erythritol Pure Sweetener

3 pack of 16 ounce individual bags

Free shipping with Amazon prime, sold and ships by Amazon

Lowest I could find on google shopping is around $6.50 a pound not including shipping resulting in a 66% savings


In the description on Amazon it says this is 1% pure. I believe this to be a typo on the amazon as the product description from NOW Foods reports its 100% pure

What kind of marketing BS is "pure"? It's 1% erythritol, 99% filler. So I guess it's pure in the sense that it's 100% BS marking. Pure BS.

Great price, and it's even cheaper with S&S.

It says 100%. Where do you see 1%?

You are right, it says this in the description on Amazon.com, however I took a look at the product on the manufacture's site, and it says 100% pure. I believe the 1% on amazon is a typo

I'll update the description to include this information along with the link

This looks very worth trying out! I read the reviews and they are mostly favorable.....besides I am tired of trying to find a sweetener that has no aftertaste or bad taste when using in tea. Thx OP, good price according to camel also!! TU and repped!

Thanks, this was a good catch, I believe this 3-pack is usually about $22.

If you get some NuNaturals stevia powder you can basically make your own (much cheaper) Truvia blend with the erythritol. (Google for ratios, you use a VERY small amount of the stevia powder.)

EDIT: Also don't forget that Subscribe and Save brings it to: $7.88, for a total of $2.62/lb, which is a really good deal for this stuff.

Great deal. I was worried when it said it was made from corn, but Now Foods page states it's non-GMO.

In for a few with a 15% discount for my March S&S order.

Anyone know if there is still a way to get Amazon Prime for free or get it at a reduced rate?

My shipping and handling is coming up almost as much as the product itself.

Use subscribe and save and shipping is free. Just remember to turn on subscribe later.

Unbelievably good deal. Erythritol is expensive stuff. Thanks OP!

Edit: Dead, $26.50 now. Probable price mistake, price was more likely for one bag.

bigmutant 02-15-2013 06:31 AM

$26.50

Shoot, I would have jumped all over this. Maybe time to setup a deal alert

Anyone hear the latest news on Amazon hiring a neo-nazi security company? Just heard about it this morning. See here - http://www.independent.co.uk/news...vice=print.

I only saw it because of my erythritol alert, which was optimistic of me at best--I think that was only the second time it's dinged for me since I added it. (Actually, this deal probably proves how worthwhile alerts are for the niche stuff.)
