    Default Tanning Lotion & other high priced crap

    I don't know about you, but I feel totally ripped off when I have to pay $50 for a bottle of good tanning lotion at the salon.

    I just bought 12 bottles of the good stuff plus 50 sample packets on Ebay for $60. I'm feeling pretty thrifty right now. http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/designerlotion4u

    What expensive crap do you find cheaper elsewhere - and where do you find it?

    the bodysouce online use to be a decent place to get tanning lotions too..

    Vitaglo.com has some ok prices..

    the girls at the tanning salon HATE that I don't buy lotions from them.. yea knock down those markups a bit..
    Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it.

    Does tanning lotion actually do anything?

    I was skeptical at first, but I use the tingle stuff and it definitely makes a difference over regular lotion. I tan MUCH faster.

    mmm can't do that tingle stuff....

    but being a fair skinned red head, I'd never do the tanning bed without lotion

    My sister spent 100 bucks on a bottle of tanning lotion and it was only like 6 or 8 oz. I thought she was fucking nuts.

    I'll tip her off to ebay.

    If you want to feel ripped off, then just move to Australia. We pay alot more tax here on stuff such as cosmetics and beauty items. You Nars cosmetics are a third of what we pay for here down unda. That is just an example...sigh!

    when i had tanning at my salon, i hated tosell the 50 and 75$ bottles..i just felt it was such a rip off. i loved the austalian gold line, its way cheaper and just as good as the $$$ bottles. check out sallys beauty supply too.

    I never pay full price for tanning lotion. Here in PA the professionals only supply places have it half price if you have a beauty license. So that's what I do.

    Since I started using mt2, I've saved hundreds of dollars on tanning products.
    Just a subq pin daily and hop in a bed every now and then and you are golden brown ALL YEAR....appetite suppression too
