I recently started ordering food from a new on-line store called Thrive Market.  Healthy food can be expensive!  I am sometimes shocked that a small bag of beef jerky or a small bag of kale chips at the store is $7!  I have found that a lot of the items on Thrive that I normally buy at Whole Foods or Amazon are a lot cheaper.  Thrive does have a yearly fee like Costco but it is less than $5/month and I know for at least two of the products I buy monthly, it is $5-6 cheaper than the store or Amazon so I make my money back right there!  The Thrive website is sorted by dietary preference.  You can look at all products that are gluten-free or Paleo or Vegan, raw or organic.  Shipping is free on orders over $49.  One of the best things about Thrive is their mission of giving.  For each membership bought a free memberships is given to a low-income family through their selected charities.  You are able to try this model for 1 month with their 30 day free trial.  You can check out the website here!

Another great resource for on-line shopping is Vitacost.com here  I have found that most items compared with Thrive are more (but no membership fee) and the selection is a little larger.  I like to mix and match between the 2, Amazon and the store to stretch my dollars farther.  I am working on a post of my favorite healthy items with price comparisons so you can make the most of your money!  Oh and by the was these sites do not just include food!  They both have supplements, cleaning supplies, beauty products and baby items!
