2 questions Vitamins and used clothes

Hi Ontario peeps, 

My local shoppers stopped carrying regular citrical, and switched to an extended release, which is not great for me. I bought the life brand version, but I've read a bit about their brand having low efficacy.

where do you get your calcium citrate?

second, does anyone know of a good way to sell gently used plus size clothes? Online would be great. Most local consignment shops here don't have a plus size section, and sites like kijiji seem to be duds. Most of what I have will be donated, but I have a few pieces I'd like to see if I can sell them. Are there any Facebook groups you'd recommend?

thanks!

Can't help you with clothing but for calcium I buy the Kirkland brand at Costco!

I would be surprised if it were totally citrate.  Can you check the bottle?

Hi Dawn!  Happy New Year!  I hope you are doing well.

The bottle says Kirkland Calcium Citrate with 200 IU Vitamin D

Calcium Citrate is 315mg and Vitamin D3 5 mcg

Those are the only 2 medicinal ingredients listed.  350 tablets in a bottle!

Some of the Bariatric Centre Hospital pharmacies have Bariatric Advantage Calcium Chews in different flavours.  I know St. Joe's in Hamilton has them.  For clothes, sometimes on this site there is a clothing exchange in the spring.  Won't get you money, but might get you some cute clothes.  I donate to Value Village and in doing so, I get a discount on anything that I buy there.  It was great as my size was changing monthly.
