I probably buy this once a year, if that!

Watkins Original Vanilla Extract

Watkins 11 oz Original Vanilla sells for $13.99 but is frequently on sale for $11.99 - like now!

Our version is double strength which means you use half what your recipe calls for so the 11 oz bottle is really like a 22 oz bottle. Our vanilla is 1.27 per ounce at the regular non-sale price.

Various brands of vanilla extract in the grocery store sell 2 oz bottles for $3.85 to $10.25 depending on the quality. That means the other brands are $1.92 - $5.13 per ounce! Plus, Watkins also carries a large selection of other flavors in extracts that you can't find in a grocery store.

Watkins Purest Ground Cinnamon

Watkins is known for it's vanilla, black pepper and cinnamon and you simply cannot buy a higher quality cinnamon than Watkins. Our large 6 oz tin sells for $6.99 ($1.17 per ounce) while the competition sells a smaller 1.87 oz bottle for $5.89 ($3.15 per ounce)

Our cinnamon is high-oil Korintje Cassia (which is the same kind a certain cinnamon roll chain uses, by the way) and ours has 3% essential oil vs the competitions inferior 1% - 2% oil content. Very cheap brands have an oil content of .5%

and if you haven't tried our pepper, you need to.

If you think all pepper is the same, you haven't had Watkins.

The most powerful cleaner you can buy! This is the one you want if you have icky stains or nasty buildup. Once you get your bowls under control with this, you can then use our natural toilet bowl cleaner to maintain it!

This cleaner is 32 oz and sells for $9.99. You need to use about one ounce per use which means it costs about .31 cents per use. Plus, this is so strong that you don't need to use it every time you clean, pick this up and our natural toilet bowl cleaner and alternate.

One of the leading competitors has a 24 oz cleaner that they sell for $3.19 but the instructions say you need to use 6 oz's per use! That means you get 4 uses per bottle at a cost of $.78 cents per use!

Testimonial: at my part time job, we had a toilet that was very stained by hard water and neglect. I took the Watkins Toilet Bowl Cleaner in and gave it a serious cleaning.

The next day, a co-worker came in and said "It's about time we got a new toilet!" and when the manager told her it wasn't a new and that I had simply cleaned it with Watkins, she called me right then and said "whatever you used on that toilet - I want some!"

All-Purpose Cleaner & Concentrate

All-natural! This spray is safe for any surface that isn't damaged by water!

Appliances, tile, sealed granite, walls, fixtures, floors, sinks, stainless steel!

If you buy one regular all-purpose spray and one bottle of the concentrate,

you will get 6 bottles of cleaner at about $3.66 per bottle.

You will refill the original bottle with the concentrate so you send 5 less bottles to the landfill!

Most natural cleaners sell for $4.00 - $6.00 per bottle so you're saving money and saving

the planet! Plus, ours comes in a variety of scents to suit you!
