BTW, Henry's Marketplace sells Carlson's for about $37 a bottle (.75 litre?) that seemed a little expensive to me. Is that about the average price?

Ron, I order mine from Vitamin Lady ~$28. That's about the best I've found, but of course, I haven't searched anymore since I found that one.

60 tabs of 1000mg Omega 3's for $2.83 Not a bad deal and I've been using them for over a year now.

Brad,

I think you've gotten some great replies already. Even so, here's that chart I said I'd post from The OmegaRx Zone.

Mike,
Thanks for the tip. Looks like the wife got the standard model.
Brian,
Good info as always. Of course, flax is easiest to find. But I'll look for the others as well.

Scott,
I'll give VitaminLady a look today. Thanks!
BTW, the eldest daughter works at Henry's so I get 15% off!! It's where I picked up a 5lb tub of whey protein isolate for 30 bucks!!
