Essential oil trading?

Post by svh » Thu Apr 05, 2007 6:47 pm

Well, given the dire state of Pur-Sleep's status right now, would any other brave souls who have chosen, like me, to continue using pur-sleep, regardless of risk, like to trade oils? I have *all* the oils, and use only Paradise, the vanilla one, whose name I've forgotten, and Fresh (the tangerine one). Any of the others are available, to posters with a history, in return for a vial of Paradise. I have only smelled all but the ones I'm keeping--haven't used a drop, but they are open.

Any takers?

PS: I truly hope Bret's business is up and running again soon! I'm all for consenting adults making informed decisions for themselves....

I got my kit Friday, I haven't had much time to experiment yet but I intend to carry on. I'll keep you in mind when I decide what I want to keep or trade.

I have a spice I might like to trade for a Peace or Lavender.

I just went down to my local hippy-dippy coop and bought several oils and am going to mix my own. Cheaper too - btw

I wonder if World Chaos has EOs next to the bongs?

I haven't smelled the Paradise yet, so I'll check it tonight and if I don't like it, I'd be happy to trade with you!

According to sleep guy, you can wash and re-use the cotton pads.

As someone new to Pur-sleep (I have had it for a while but only got round to starting my evaluation 3 nights back), my reaction is - this is a winner.

I really can't swear it is the reason, but from the 1st night of use I have been sleeping very well & look forward to using the scent each night. It seems to me that it aids my nasal breathing. I really need more time to be sure but that is my 1st take on its effect.

This is not at all what I expected. In fact the reason it took me so long to get around to doing the trial was because I didn't think the idea would amount to much & regarded it as in the gimmick category. I stand chastened by my own actual use of it.

The quality of the diffuser is very good. The whole thing shows to me the classic signs of an intelligently thought out design.

I really wish SleepGuy and Pur-sleep all the best. I plan to keep using it.

Maybe the good feelings are temporary, maybe not, time will tell & in the between time I'll keep using it.
