Cheap Atkins & low carb stuff?

I recently went to a local store that sells only low carb stuff -
great selection, but sky-high prices. I already purchase some Atkins
shakes and lc snacks at Wal-Mart or Sam's Club, but I was looking for
more - such as the "Thick not thin" for thickening gravies. It was
$20.50 for a tiny bag! Does anyone know of a place on-line that sells
low carb stuff at a reasonable price and doesn't charge an arm and leg
for shipping? Thanks!

I did a search at froogle.google.com and found that while there appear
to be a few sites selling it for a few dollars less, that appears to be
about average price for Not Starch.

I suggest checking into how many grams of carb there are in corn starch.
It's not all that bad, when you divide it up by how many servings of
gravy you're thickening.

A bag of Not Starch will last for a couple years. You only need a pinch of
it for most recipes.

I like VitaCost. They charge $4.95 for shipping your entire order, no
matter how large, and their prices for Keto products can't be beat.

Netrition is also good, and carries some things (like DaVinci syrups) that
VitaCost doesn't. Their prices are a little higher, but still more
reasonable than most places. And the shipping is the same as VitaCost.

Atkins since January 26, 2003
Type 2 Diabetic since May 15, 2001

Just opened my new store, at www.LowCarbAdvisor.com. I don't carry
Thick not Thin at this point, but prices for the products I have are
good, I think. I'll be adding a number of new products over the next
few weeks.

If you have suggestions for what I should add, let me know. I'm only
offering products that I use on a regular basis, so its not your
ordinary store that offers any and all low carb products. I'm trying
to provide a more qualitative service.
