1, 3 or 6 bottles? A simple way to compare packages

Choosing a package is mostly arithmetic. Once you know how many servings each option gives you and what each one costs, the decision tends to get a lot calmer.

Here is a way to work it out in a couple of minutes, using the numbers on the JointsAid label and the current package prices.

Start with servings

A JointsAid bottle holds 60 capsules, and the label lists a serving as two capsules. That makes 30 servings per bottle. Three bottles give you 90 servings, and six bottles give you 180.

Read the directions on the label for how those servings are meant to be used. The package you choose only changes how many bottles arrive, not the directions.

Then look at the price per bottle

One bottle is $89, plus $9 shipping within the US, so $98 before any tax. Three bottles are $237 with free US shipping, which works out to $79 a bottle. Six bottles are $414 with free US shipping, or $69 a bottle.

International shipping and any applicable tax are calculated at checkout, so the final total is always shown before you pay.

Finish with the price per serving

Dividing by servings puts every option on the same footing. One bottle at $98 delivered is about $3.27 a serving. Three bottles at $237 come to about $2.63 a serving. Six bottles at $414 come to about $2.30 a serving.

These are simple divisions of the listed prices, rounded to the cent. They describe cost, nothing more.

What the numbers do not capture

Arithmetic only goes so far. It cannot tell you whether the product suits you, and it does not know your budget this month or how settled your plans are. A lower price per serving is only a good deal if you actually intend to use the larger quantity.

Some people prefer to start with a single bottle precisely because it keeps the commitment small. Others know from experience that they dislike reordering and prefer to buy more at once. Neither approach is wrong, and the guarantee exists so that the first order is not a leap of faith.

Check the details on the day you order

Prices, shipping terms and availability can change, so treat the figures in this article as a guide and confirm them on the package selector and at checkout. The BuyGoods checkout page shows the final amount, including tax where it applies, before you pay. If anything on that page differs from what you expected, pause and read it again before continuing.

Match the package to your plans

A single bottle is a smaller first step, and it is a sensible way to get to know the product. A larger package means fewer orders and a lower cost per bottle, which suits people who already know they want to continue.

Whichever you choose, the purchase is covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee through BuyGoods, the retailer. The returns page explains how to ask for a refund.
