Default Bad News -- Can't find Morton's Epson Lotion Anymore

I went to two different Walmarts near my house today and neither one is carrying the Epson lotion any more--also checked our Kroger because I have seen it there but they aren't stocking it now either.

I guess if Amazon still offers it, we will be in luck, but it was really nice to be able to stop by Walmart for it because with a store on every corner almost, you were always driving by one some time during the day!

If there's one near you, Walgreens Pharmacy carries it. I just got one 2 days ago.

What a major bummer!

I also see it is still at Walgreen's... I'll have to get 3 bottles.
I gave away my back up one, to our new neighbor the other day as a moving in gift! It shows up online at our zip code store.

There are other things WalMart doesn't have anymore. I've switched those to WalGreen's...already. I guess WalMart is cutting back its inventory everywhere? The webpage for it says
"out of stock" (not discontinued).

Both my upstairs bottle and downstairs one, are less than 1/2 full.

If this disappears, I will be one unhappy person!

I do see a new item, on Amazon that might be similar. I'll put one in my wish list, to try for next month.

Default Thanks for the heads up!

I just got the last bottle at my Walgreens. They're not too quick to restock so I think I'll check out some more Walgreens stores. Last time I checked Amazon's prices had gone up considerably.

Usually you can ask a store to carry an item.
You can use Walmart online ordering and pick up at store...possibly other stores too.

They must be still making it..

A good read on why some products may be disappearing from WalMart...

Am I the only one? I bought this lotion on recommendations here and tried to work with it and it left my skin dry and white residue on my skin. Then I re-read some amazon reviews and others said what I'm saying. I use so many others that for my skin are much better including Topricin and Ultra Tiger Balm and some others. I finally threw away at least half a bottle. I tried it. I find more and more over years I can't use mag oil spray either. I worked with it for years until I realized it was drying and skin irritating. C

I saw a lot of different Dr. Teal's product at Kroger and also Walmart. Now I wonder if I missed that tube of his lotion. It's not hard to check back however.

I was used to buying 2 bottles at a time, so it's been a while since I was in there looking for it. When I asked the clerk if they'd moved it to another spot, she started looking for a label, indicating they were just temporarily out, but the labels had all been removed. I checked with the other lotions and it wasn't there either.

You are either applying too much or not massaging it
In well. Any excess easily wipes off the next day with
a wet cloth or you shower it off. There is alot of the
mag salt in there so some is bound to be left over.
I don't glop it on.. I use very little at a time actually.
You don't use this like other body lotions.
