I was directed to go to the WalMart Pharmacy and ask them to order you Propylene Glycol and how much it would cost. You need to use the full name and if asked what you want it for, tell them you're starting to make homemade soap. I haven't tried this as I use VG because I react poorly to high PG blends.

Hope this helps.

I asked them to order some for me, but they never even heard of proplene glycol. It's craziness, I tell you.

You can try craft stores and cooking supply stores I've read that many people use it in making home made ice cream because it is an antifreeze (LOL!) and keeps ice crystals from forming in the ice cream and ruining it.

Lol, BAD WORD! Maybe home-made ice cream should be considered by the FDA as well, lol. :p I'll check Michael's again... when I go in there, I'm always doing it when I'm strapped for time. I just haven't seen any baking shops around here. I swear, Washington has nothing to do.

Lol! I went to two different WalMarts here, and that was asking alot I HATE that store, and neither one knew what I was talking about never heard of it. Tried to explain what it is but the look on the face said it all lol and I just gave up. Asked at RiteAide and Walgreens too once again had no idea what it was. I'm not even going to ask my pharmacist although one of the ladies behind the counter was interested in my pv. I did buy a small bottle of PG VG mix from MFS to try. I like it it works good, but not very cost effective buying it that way.:p

How much you want?
Propylene Glycol (USP) 125ml - $3.99 : Electronic Ash
Propylene Glycol (USP) 250ml - $6.99 :Electronic Ash
Propylene Glycol (USP) 500ml - $12.50 : Electronic Ash

BTW love their nic juice!
coupon code-> ecigforum might get 5% more off free shipping after 13.99 maybe

One of my regular shopping places besides MV. Great service

But I did find a gallon of USP PG at Central Tractor..if you live in a rural area think farm supply and maybe pet shop??

I already know about all of the suppliers for PG online, but thank you for the info. I might have a Tractor Supply around here, so I'll give that a shot.

the walgreens people can get it...if they tell you no...they're being lazy...just ask for the pharmacy supervisor...and use the full name...they'll have to order it but will usually have it the next day..they'll be nosey and ask what you want it for, "tell em you're having a big party and are making lots of "Lube"...this'll get you checked out quicker and less questions and hassles next time...
