Hi Sue!
I remembered another place I get Lip-N-Tape bags (I don't understand why
they're called that, but I like them:).. I got the last ones from
www.wrappedallup.com I get the 4 1/2 by 5 1/2 bags, which are $6 for 100 or
$45 for 1000....the 4 1/2 by 5 1/2 bags work great for a 4-5 ounce bar.
I charge a bit more than $1 an ounce....since coconut oil and the other
carrier's have gone up so much, I'm going up to $7 a bar this summer...I
have never had a problem with anyone complaining about price.
Have fun!

Now that's about the best idea I've ever heard. I'm ordering these tonight.
Thanks Claire for posting this website url. I've been using boxes with the
cut outs in the front and a label on the back for cp soap and for M&P I wrap
the soap with a cigar band and use a light gauge shrink wrap over that.
Just to butt in here to this conversation, I also charge about $1.00 per
ounce, depending on the recipe. The specialty type soaps I charge more for.
