Where to buy......Castor Oil?!

Hi
Decided to try the OCM method, but am at a loss from where to get Castor Oil.
Have tried; Asda,Boots, Lloyds, Co op and unfortunately there isn't any small independent pharmacy chains near me !
Can't really buy online as I've cancelled my only card (after losing it) :mad:
Many Thanks

    I've been Money Tipped!
    dh picked some up last week in an Asian grocery shop in London.
  • It's worth asking in Boots, other chains and small independent chemists. Often its kept behind the counter. They may ask you why you want it, to make sure you're not going to abuse it.

    I used to buy it for soapmaking. Didn't have any trouble getting it once I'd told them.

    My local Day Lewis pharmacy even has it on display.

    Regarding buying online, have you considered setting up a Paypal account with your bank details, and buying from Ebay?

    They keep it behind the counter at my boots as some people will still use it to try and bring on labour, silly silly people!

    I've decided to try this method too, I ordered a small bottle from ebay, £2.45 including delivery.

    I asked in H&B but they don't have it.
