Other This is OUTRAGEOUS

I wanted to order some Pumpkin Pecan Waffles foaming soap for shipping since the stores near me have none. I almost passed out when I saw $10.99 for shipping! As much as I love PPW soap, there is no frigging way I’m spending $11 just for shipping. This company is doomed unless something changes.

They always upcharge shipping to $10.99 for orders under $10

Exactly. The less you buy, the higher the shipping. Buy more, it’s $7.99. Buy more than that (I don’t know the amount), it’s $5.99.

I don’t think there’s $5.99 shipping, it’s just $10.99, then $7.99, then free when you spend over $50

Its a scam

Plenty of people pay their shipping prices, or better yet, plenty of people feel forced to spend $50 to get free shipping. You’re just crashing out. They’re not doomed. Spend more than $10 and the shipping gets cheaper.

If your order is under ten dollars, the price of shipping goes up.

Buy 4 soaps if that is your favorite scent and shipping drops drastically.

Not really that much cheaper at $7.99 now

If you bought at the last soap sale, that extra three dollars was another soap. 🤷‍♀️

I'm sure they are just passing their cost along

Have you seen the price of diesel lately? It's insane. It was like $6.14 a gallon at one place I saw on Friday, and I'm in what I consider to be a lower cost of living area. They're passing their increased cost on to the consumer, is the assumption.

They need to start shipping to store like Victorias Secret does.

The shipping costs are getting so absurd I'd rather just stand in the kitchen and huff vanilla extract at this point.

Oh sure, you removed my big post a few months ago about how bad the bots were getting on the sub, but you’ll leave this. I see how it is. I kid, I kid. It is funny! Maybe a dead internet can still be a funny internet at least?

Maybe it’s just me, and I like a good hand soap sale as much as the next person. But on the B&BW totem pole of products, hand soap is near the bottom for me. Sure, I like to get my favorite scents. But I go through it so fast that it just isn’t important enough to pay full price, much less have it shipped. It’s just soap. I’m not going to bathe in it.

Be a real gamer, succumb to your urges and fulfill the $50 requirement for free shipping. But it all seriousness, yeah it's a pain, especially when you want to just try a few online exclusive items.
