Inexpensive sublingual B12

I know a lot of people are looking for ways to save money on vitamins, so I thought I would pass this along.  For the past 2-3 years I have been taking Twinlabs 5000mcg "Mega B12 Dots" (available at a number of places including Vitamin Shoppe and Kroger grocery stores).  Yes, they are 5000mcg, but note that they also make them in a 500mcg strength, so check the label carefully!  They are smaller and have much less flavor than the other B12s I have tried (just a slight berry kind of flavor), and they dissolve quickly (although not quite as quickly as the Celebrate. They are anywhere from $11-15  for 60 pills, but because of the dosage, you only have to take one or two a week, so 60 lasts a long time! 

The Celebrate that I was taking previously (which, admittedly, have a yummy cherry flavor) are only 1000mcg, so you would have to take 5 times as many and they are $16 for 90 tablets.  That measn that the Twinlabs, if you pay $15, breaks down to 20,000mcg per dollar whereas with the Celebrate you get only 5600mcg per dollar, so the Celebrate are almost 4x as expensive!

Needless to say, I would not recommend them if my labs had not always been very good while taking them.

 Good info to have, thanks!

I really like the Twinlabs, as well.  I tried their sublingual D3 too.  Also good but the D3 takes forever to dissolve unlike the B12.  Those do dissolve quickly.  

I have picked up other kinds of B12 when I catch a sale but I always go back to Twinlabs. 

I take one from Costco - I'll look it up when I get home and post tomorrow.  It's around $15 a bottle, but I stock up when they put out a coupon.  2500mcg, 250 count.  Even taking one every day it's a good 8 months worth.

I just looked it up online - It's Nature's Bounty brand.

I take the costco one too and stock up when they are on the book like last month! They kind of taste like candy to me, too.

 i bought the bjs one the other day, only to get home and realize it was not sublingual! i knew it was too good to be true to get over a years supply for $18. my mom kept them though so it worked out.

I take the Trader Joe brand. They're 1000 mcg's and come in a bottle of 100 and they're only $6 or so.

Twin Labs also has out a Bariatric Support line of products

I use the Twin Valley sublingual b-12 fom walmart...2500mcg for $5, 60 tablets which lasts me 2 months when taken daily.  My B-12 labs are consistently in the 800-900 range when I take these (i take me 5x a week and skip weekends).  I like these because they have a nice cherry flavor and I can go into any walmart and find them with ease no matter where I am.

 I use the GNC brand sublingual B12 (1000mcg) and cut them in half. A box is 60 tabs, so in one box I get 120 days worth. They have sales all the time that are buy one get one %50 off. I got 2 boxes for $15.00
