Have been looking for this normally priced shampoo at $2 or so and see it on line now for $30 or more. Does anyone know why? Has it been deemed dangerous? Don't get it!!

Much the way my Clairol Herbal Essence Shampoo - Original (the emerald green bottle) went. Have seen it for $80 a bottle. The new Herbal Essence shampoos just don't match it.



The Vermont Country Store carries a simlar brand to the Herbal Essence, close, but not quite there. http://www.vermontcountrystore.com/store/jump/Health_&_Beauty/Hair_Care/10070

I'll look for you around these parts. Ocean State Job Lot often sells off the last remnants of many items.

Also, when I'm in the Caribbean, I love to go the local drug stores. I'm always sure to find something retro/nostalgic/vintage there (and buy it).

Wish i had known. I would have stocked up. Haven't found anything comparable yet. I'll keep looking and maybe I will get lucky.

Joyce,

Don't forget to check with the customer service centers for Walmart, K-Mart, etc. ask if they can look up inventory from across the country for a pallet sitting somewhere. I bought "all remaining stock" of L'Oreal Ultra Rich shampoo many years back from K-Mart when it was discontinued. Assuming shelf-life isn't an issue, I should have shampoo until I'm 70.

At the time, I was hyper allergic to everything I'd tried on the market and the Ultra Rich product was the only thing I could handle. These days, either the products or my sensitivities have mellowed. Phew!

Good luck with your search!
