Do any of you use Open Original Shared Link? Basically, you choose what you want to buy from the list that they have, and you schedule how often you want to receive it (monthly, every 2 months etc.). They give you a 15% discount, and if you need something sooner you can push up the delivery. You can even cancel a delivery.

While my son was CF, we started using the Pamela's bread mix. The kids and DH love it so much we want to stay with it. Since I bake 2 loaves a week, I need to get the price down as low as possible. With Subscribe and Save, it would be about $3.25 each.

Have you used Subscribe and Save? How do you like it? Thanks for any responses.

I was trying to set the subscription up, but I was having problems with that.

Even without the added 15% savings, the gluten free items I ordered were a better deal than going to the health food store.

An added benefit I found was goodsearch .com / goodshop .com . You can donate a % of your sale to benefit a registered charity.

Thanks for posting this! I just signed up for a few things. Definitely cheaper than our local store.

I bet it helps save gas since that is getting higher each day, it will cut down on trips to the health store which for some members are not close to home.

Amazon also has a program where you get free shipping always and VERY cheap two day shipping for like $79 a year. I buy EVERYTHING from Amazon cuz of this. I think their prices are very competitive and I don't ever have to leave the comfort of my home. BIG plus with two kids. :) I love Amazon!

I have used subscribe & save on a couple of items. It is very easy to use, and easy to unsubscribe an item. I was actually surprise at how easy they made it to unsubscribe.

Guhlia is right, Amazon Prime is a great program. I buy almost everything on Amazon now.

You may want to check out Open Original Shared Link you can search Amazon just for items that qualify for free shipping or Prime items.

Plus they just added a search where you can search the Subscribe & Save stuff. I did a search for "gluten free" in Grocery, and several of my favorites came up! {Even Pamela's bread mix came up}

I love it. I use it for a lot of food items. It is so easy and the price is great. I live in a very rural area with very few options, this has been a life saver for me

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed.
