Ever since I've started this journey I feel frustrated bc I'm running all over town trying to find the right vitamins...

I have a little OCD  LOL   I wonder if it would be better for me to shop online at 1 place...but then I look at the price...

do you have any suggestions?

I buy all my vitamins from Amazon. Lots of people stock up when CVS or Rite Aid have BOGO sales, but like you, I hate running all over town or trying to keep up with individual store sales. The only vitamin I don't buy from Amazon is chewable calcium, which I buy from Nashua Nutrition when they have their holiday sales.

I buy my carbonyl iron w/vit C and dry vitamin d online from vitaLady.  Due to the shipping cost, I usually buy a year's supply. The rest I buy from Walmart, CVS or Kroger. I'm a little OCD too and buy a lot when I see them on sale and use coupons when I can.

I order mine through Celebrate. I was told I couldn't swallow pills yet so I get the chews multi and calcium and I really like them.

I use Celebrate too!  I have done their multi-vitamin chews and calcium chews, as well as the chewable iron + c.  This month I switched to chewable calcium and multivitamin tablets, and I really like them, except that the calcium is kind of gritty.  Other than that, I love them, and their customer service has been excellent.  I purchased their multi-vitamin drink powder, and a type of protein shake that I didn't care for, and they allowed me to return them (at my cost) no questions asked.

I also get the majority of mine through Celebrate online.

I get most of mine from vitacost.com they have their own brand that is cheaper than any other place and they work just as good as the expensive ones. I get my multi at Walmart its the generic centrum Its the cheapest I found that has what we need.

Please be careful with their brand. 

I used to buy their Calcium Citrate chewables.  Only to discover a couple of years later - that their Calcium Citrate had mostly carbonate (not listed on the packaging) and only traces amount of citrate...  I got email from them when I asked them what is in it and how much elemental calcium is in every chewable tablet... they told me it was app 100 mg elemental calcium from carbonate. I asked fro clarification - since I was sure they were talking about different calcium.. I even sent them a picture of the bottle.. I was told - yes- it that one contained some citrate but mostly carbonate..

I was left with 3 months supply (I used to buy them once every 4-5 months) and they would not return my money because it was longer than 30 days from purchase.... Now - I chose not to buy anything from them that is their brand. I don't trust them.

I buy Bariatric Fusion chewable online. I was told this is all I need although others on this site have indicated it is not sufficient. My labs are good though and this is what my docs have recommended.
