Hey everyone! I found these gummy vitamins in softgel form on sale at Costco for like 50% off. Is it a steal or are they lower quality? I don't want to buy a huge bottle and then find out they're duds.

Hi! I've been buying softgels for years. In my experience, sales usually mean the manufacturer is just clearing out inventory before a formula change or new packaging. But quality doesn't usually drop with a sale. Check the expiration date and the label for any changes. If it's the same ingredients, it's likely a great deal.

I got a similar deal at Target once and they were totally fine. My kids take them and no difference at all. Sometimes they just have overstock. I'd go for it! Just make sure they don't have a weird smell or something when you open them.

I'm on night shifts, so I take these for sleep and energy. I've bought sale ones from my local pharmacy and they worked the same. The only thing I watch for is if they're close to expiration, then I pass. Otherwise, enjoy the savings!

Thanks, y'all! I feel better about it now. Gonna grab a bottle before they sell out. Appreciate the advice!
