My first Vitacost order – 10 dollar Discount Coupon – Better than iHerb.com? My review
If you are here just for the $10.00 coupon, you can get it via this link.
I have heard from Vitacost previously. I just never had the time to make my first order. Choosing the products can take some time, and as an international customer, you need to worry about the shipping cost, weight and taxes.
Vitacost is pretty similar to iHerb in many ways. Both are large online health stores, and they both have rewards/coupon system. Some of the products are much cheaper in Vitacost than iHerb. Although for the international customers, the shipping cost is much higher; Vitacost ($8.99) vs iHerb ($4.00).
Website is messy compared to iHerb’s and filtering isn’t as good. Weight limit is also much lover on Vitacost. (3.00lbs vs iHerb’s 4.00lbs), my shopping cart was close to 4.00lbs, and I had to start over again, to get it under the 3.00lbs limit. Otherwise the shipping cost would have been outrageous.
There’s no free samples for customers outside of US.
Vitacost is filled with deals and coupons. There’s even own page for them. That’s the page you want to start your Vitacost shopping!

Conclusion
International customers:
I don’t think it’s good as iHerb, although it’s worth the first order, as you get the 10 dollar discount. High shipping cost, lower shipping weight limit and no free samples.
US customers:
This might be better than iHerb. Although iHerb has lower free shipping limit ($20.00 vs Vitacost’s $49.00). Both places are great for first timers.
