So, I just did a quick calculation (maybe not too quick), on how much it would cost me for a 30ml bottle of a single flavored juice. I did it based on prices at One Stop DIY shop, excluding costs as shipping, and working materials. Only used the costs of the ingredients and container. Therefore, the price just goes up from here, as I used prices for the largest quantity liquids you can buy.
My finding was the cost of this bottle, minus expenses, is about 7 and a half to 8 bucks. I figure you can buy a 30 ml bottle for 2 to 7 bucks more. With the DIY method, you have all the extras to figure in, and you have to calculate how much more of what liquids you need to buy to balance everything for optimum value.
This seems like a lot of trouble to me, at not that much of a lower cost. I can see it if you paid only a couple of dollars or less per 30 ml bottle, but it's quite a bit higher. Can anyone here rationalize this for me?
