Why I Like Using IHerb

As a City-Cost user, I've been using Amazon.co.jp a lot because I earn credit by blogging. It's convenient because I can see the details in English and find things that aren't always available locally.

I just started to use iHerb though. If you've used it you'll recognize their box design in the picture.

Amazon didn't have what I wanted (Jason Naturals Vitamin E oil!) without shipping from the US and paying a high shipping fee.

I've found better deals for some other products on iHerb too.

Based in the US, the company also has a shipping center in S. Korea, so I've gotten both of my orders fast - about five days. Considering they're mostly products imported from the US this is a lot better than anything delivered from there directly to Japan.

I also like that I can shop in English, but I can also set the currency to US dollars even though my orders are shipped to Japan. As I'm using a US credit card, it's just better to not have to pay extra for converting currencies.

I'm kinda into side hustles, although I'll admit I'm not so focused on that lately. iHerb has a rewards program, so if anyone uses my special code, they can get at least 5% off their entire order. This also gives me the same percentage (with no change to the cost) and I can use that credit for my next order.

I've done an internet search to find a reward code for that extra 5% off my iHerb order, but if you want to share yours in the comments, I'll use it next time!
