My homemade vanilla extract is nearing the end of the bottle. I made it a year or two ago with a 1.5 litre bottle of vodka.
I need to buy some vanilla pods to start another brew but wondering if anyone can suggest where to buy them at a reasonable price?
I don't need the A grade type that sell for $10 or so for 3 pods but looking for lesser quality and more of them.
Any thoughts?

I have just bought 10 vanilla pods from Leena Spices.
They were $3.50 each but currently are offering 30% discount.
Yay I can now get on with vanilla extract.

I have bought from the it sounds like the same person as Margaret. Trademe seller willyow in Orewa - but he doesn't seem to have vanilla right now. I last got some in January 2016, 10 pods for $17.50 and they were of perfectly good quality to make extract. I think I put about 15 or so in a litre of vodka.

I agree that $3.50 is a lot for a poor quality product. The pods I bought for $1.75 each were long, soft, plump and shiny.
Even the Equagold 4-pack (in a glass test tube) that I bought once from New World was cheaper than $3.50/ea and they were perfectly good pods. I see the Equagold website has the RRP listed as $21, but I know I didn't pay nearly that much.
