Is it worth buying Body Wash from Amazon instead of locally?

Steve Johnson

I always had this question, because I prefer using body wash to a bar of soap. 
Unfortunately, Osher Ad doesn't let you check prices online. Rami Levi is the next best place. I think Sufershal is a bit overpriced, even though they also have an online portal. 

It wouldn't be fair to compare an Israeli label to an American brand. So let's stick with Axe Apollo Body Wash for example. 

At Rami Levi, it is 9.8 shekel for 400 ml. The current exchange rate would have the price be $2.83 for 13.5 fluid ounces. The prices always change on amazon, but let's say you get 2.5 more fluid ounces and pay less in the states. 

It seems oddly similar to Dollar Stores in the US. They sell a product with less volume for $1. If you do the math, it is cheaper at a superstore or online even.

In any case, I would recommend buying in bulk. You are going to use it anyways, and you get a better price vs purchasing an individual unit. 

It seems like the quantity in Israel is smaller and more expensive than it's US counterparts. 
I would love to hear your opinions on this subject.
