Default Liquid Sucralose (splenda) for about 1/2 the cost

For years I have used "Sweetzfree" liquid sucralose: one drop = 1.5 teaspoons sugar/zero carbs. $18.00 for one ounce.

I just bought "Splendex " liquid sucralose on ebay: it is the same one drop = 1.5 teaspoons sugar/zero carbs, but it's only $6.95 for one ounce. It seems to have less of an aftertaste, but maybe I'm imagining things. Anyway the savings is substantial and I thought I'd share.

Hey, hi and thanks for posting this. I was going to order Sweetzfree this weekend but I found some better deals on eBay. They end of being about half the price with the shipping.

No bidding wars...this is a fixed price. Click the button that says "Buy It Now". Also you have to have a PayPal account (also owned by ebay) to pay for purchases.

And Hi JAnn

That's a great deal. So the product is legit? You can tell it's just as sweet?

As a note to us Canucks, Sweetzfree is still a better deal after the shipping. No extra charge for Sweetzfree to ship to the Great White North. I don't know about other products on ebay; I didn't really look too hard.

It tastes great!! I use the same # of drops (as I do with Sweetzfree) for the sweetness I like in my coffee. It lacks an aftertaste. It's a more natural flavor for sure.

I can't speak to anything else on ebay as I have only tried the one called Splendex.

I order liquid Splenda from a lady in the States who buys it bulk, and then bottles 65 8oz bottles of it. I have been buying from her since 1999, and have recommended her to my friends here and in the States.

She doesn't do it for profit. We are just a buying group (from old Yahoo Group days) who put together our orders three times a year.

If anyone is interested in more details, let me know

Cheers!
