WSP sale - what are you getting?

[new12soap]

So being new to soaring I have to ask who is WSP?

Wholesale Supplies Plus

http://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/Default.aspx

They are having a sale on Monday, Dec 30. I agree that some of their items (particularly FO's) are high, but others are very reasonable and competitively priced, and the quality is excellent. I would rather pay another $1-2 for a fragrance I can use a little less of and that I know will last in my bars. JM2C

Hi all I am new to this forum and so far I am excited about the enthusiasm here! So being new to soaring I have to ask who is WSP? I am really just starting so getting resources is huge right now. So I am excited about getting ready to start soaping so I think this site is going to get me even more excited! Any input for a new shaper and how to get started would be appreciated. Oh I have so much to read here I best get started! Thanks all!

Wholesale Suppliies Plus. Free shipping over $30 (soon to be raised to $40). Pretty much one stop shopping for soap making & B&B. Not a bad place if you want to get everything in one go. I buy from them selectively - mostly containers and sometimes soaping oils.

I decided to place my order to WSP today instead of waiting.. And I'm in the car on a long drive and decided to type my exact (as exact as possible) order into brambleberry to see how comparable the two companies are. My order was for:
Shea butter
Cocoa butter
Castor oil
RBO
CO
Lip balm tubes and caps
Round bottles and tops
6, 4oz bottles of FO
2,2oz jars of pigment
2, neon sample packs of oxides.

After totaling both at both companies, and adding BB's shipping the price difference was $1.00!!! I had to laugh. .. Well at least now I know next I'll have to do a side by side with a few other companies. These are the two I mostly order from.

If you ordered today you are missing Monday's sale for WSP. I am sure there will be a greater difference then.

I know I struggled with it for a few days and decided to just give up whatever I was going to save because I want my stuff ASAP.. And I'm worried that items won't be available. Mostly I just need things NOW! I'm having soaping withdrawals.

I just added so much stuff to my cart it's crazy!! This is the first time I've gone through this sale so I'm not sure what will be in the sale. Just decided to add everything I was remotely interested in and then take a look at the cart and delete from there. I will definitely have to delete a lot - lol!!

I'm getting mostly soaping oils, some micas, lotion bottles, butters, some super fine pumice. No scents this time around as I just got some not too long ago from BB and WSP.

Awe man! I had that maple bacon bar fragrance in my cart, then took it out at the last second.. Then I had regret immediately!

 

[indulgebandb]

I just placed my order too- mainly got a lot of things I had never ordered before to do some experimenting. So far only have bath and
Body stuff but am going to try some M&P- not brave enough yet to try CP or HP! My biggest $ product was a small silicone loaf mold and a straight cutter- you people are all a bad influence! Lol

We are known in soaping circles as "The Enablers.":razz:

 

[kazmi]

Order placed. I tried to stay up till midnite but was dead tired. Woke up at the crack of dawn though, jumped out of bed and got on my 'puter. LOL all for 10% off. What we do just for a sale

Yes LSG The Enablers hehehe

I browsed, but like Paillo I comparison shop like crazy and WSP doesn't win. I'm so spoiled by living near Columbus Foods/Soaper's Choice and being able to (send my husband on his way to work to) pick up!

LizFlowers, I noticed some of what you got from WSP is stuff Soaper's Choice offers. Is the shipping to you bad enough that WSP wins--or you just prefer smaller amounts?

Got my order in and the refined shea butter was the only thing that was out of stock. Got a bunch of stuff that I've never used before like: oxides, avocado butter & sodium lactate. I got 2 silicone molds...really looking forward to not having to line my homemade wooded molds! I prefer to use eos, but all my friends and family are okay with using fos, so I got: oatmeal, milk & honey, fudge brownie, bladderwrack (weird name), Euphoria (really hope it smells like the real thing), lemon verbena and bikini beach. I saved about $16.00!

 

[grayceworks]

Oh, there's so much I WANT to get. But I already spent $200 on stuff before xmas. And a bit more before that. and well... a bit more before that too.... Plus all the shelves my hubby bought me for the kitchen when he redid it for me. Although... I might be able to get just a FEW little things.....

I was going to order 48 of the surplus scoops & some how forgot. A cheap plastic scoop isn't really the look I am going for, but I figured putting one in my bathsalts was better than nothing. No way people want to spend the extra cash on a stainless steel one! I went ahead & placed it in my cart for next time.

TVivian next time you have to get the maple bacon. I bought a 1 oz sample from Candlemaking.com & as soon as I used it 1 whiff my neighbor said your going to need more of that. I used it to make beer soap with bacon lard. It isn't one of those that smells like a food, but brings bacon thoughts to your mind.

Placed my order at 12:05, was hoping if I got it in earlier I would be earlier on the shipping list...wishful thinking maybe.
