Where can you get poor quality VG from that you need to ask where you can get the "good stuff"?

Non-food grade VG is bottled and sold for a variety of different uses including as a skin moisturizer, and as an ingredient for soap makers. I'm sure there are more, but those are the first two that come to mind.

ETA: My post makes a lot less sense now that the comment I was replying to has been deleted. That is all! :)

Many DIYers order from Essential Depot.

You could also check your local Walmart/Walgreens/Target. It will be labeled Glycerine, USP (or BP or EU)
Huh, that's the brand I've been using, but got it from Amazon. Didn't know they had they're own site.

Edit: looks like I'll still use Amazon - the quart size is $1 cheaper, and I'm an Amazon Prime member.

Depending on how much you want, I just scored a "GlyCube" from Essential Depot. Four GALLONS (mix and match PG/VG) for about $80-ish with shipping.

Sounds expensive, but it averages a bit over $20/gallon, and I'm now set for YEARS :)
Wow, I can't think that far ahead! But sounds like a great deal.
