shipping. I am saving significantly more money.

What’s great about this site is they have such a wide
selection of products. I wasn’t happy with my current ED product was using, so I was able to
try out a different kind and see if it was a better fit for my needs. Which it was!

crossed my mind how much cheaper the generic versions were. When I started browsing the
items I couldn’t believe the price difference! This is my go to shop right now.
