FYI, Vitacost has a lot of Burt's Bees products at discounted prices:
http://www.vitacost.com/productResults.aspx?N=32+2008245
For instance, the orange cleanser is $5.19 (versus $7.99 retail - that's 35% off). If you're getting other stuff, it works out great cause they have a $4.99 shipping on any size order (U.S., that is).
INTERNATIONAL HEADS UP!
Vitacost.com now ships internationally. For info, go to:

| Just fyi, a lot of canadian orders were charged a large ups fee (ups policy). I don't know about other destinations. Please investigate before ordering so you won't get shocked! |

I would call Vitacost and talk to them and see what they say regarding shipping to your country. They do remind people that your government's customs may charge a separate fee - that's the government for ya!
I just thought I'd post the info about Vitacost cause I know a lot of people on the forums have been asking for a place that ships Burt's Bees (and other products) internationally. |

| And don't forget to go through ebates.com and get more money back. Also google the web for vitacost promo codes. There is usually a 5% off code floating around. |

I ordered from vitacost a couple of weeks ago. Bearing in mind I am in UK the package arrived in three days which I thought was great especially as I ordered on a Sunday.
I did get slapped with a ups fee and extra tax. I got the impression that UPS automatically put the charge on because they rang me up the night before and said it was coming into land now and would be delivered the next day if I paid the charge.
I didn't realise that there were discount codes but will look for them if I buy again.(Thanks for letting us know).
I tend to factor in extra charges now when I buy from abroad because I get them so often. |

| why do ups charge the recipient? surely you have paid for postage at the other end? Or is it a parcelforce 'handling' charge? |

There was a thread on this in the lounge a while back and Vitacost do NOT ship Burts Bees outside the States. Most other things, yes.
I just tried again, in case there was a change of policy, but Vitacost still don't ship it internationally.
This site does ship Burts Bees internationally
https://www.vitaminlife.com/
Not sure I would recommend them though, as the one time I ordered I seem to recall it took a long time to get here..and one of the BB products they sold me was a sample/not for sale and they didn't even bother to remove the sticker stating so!
Tiger Tim posted a discount code for Vitacost in the lounge which still works, or at least did a couple of weeks ago when I used it  |
