Plus, they offer free shipping when you spend over $49, and give you that awesome $10 credit for signing up – and for referring your friends.

I love Vitacost so much, I want to share it with one lucky reader. Whether you’re new to Vitacost or a long-time customer, I’m sure you’ll find plenty of goodies to splurge on with your $50!

Here’s how to enter this celebratory giveaway.

    Pesach is going great but totally exhausting. I love all youR deals but in particular the ones that I have used recently have been a number of the magazine ones (you can never have too many of those lol) and I bought up a ton of those hagadahs you mentioned a while back. They have been such a help to have around and were super cheap!!!

  12. I love getting your email and your facebook stuff really helps! Great service to all of us. Chag sameach!

  19. ‎2nd night of Pesach was Seder Game Show… a success (imho). The kids were engaged and fabulous from beginning to end. Started at 5pm and ended at 8:40pm (including the meal). Trivia questions, creative answer questions, 4 videos, a prize area (on the couch) with tons of prizes for all ages, a score board (hosted by Papa & Savta) and fun. I call the video selection “vids for yids”

  20. Enjoy your website. Can’t wait til you hit 30,000.
