I tried less expensive brands, but they were nowhere near as effective.

Many medicinal mushrooms can be grown at home and bought online - to buy the capsules is insanity.
and if you have a good harvest, you can always eat them or sell some- organic mushrooms go for a good price to local chefs- and you can always check your local 'locavore' site.
They are easy to tincture and make into teas or dry as well. Fresh and local is always better :)

I live in a concrete jungle, so this isn't an option, nor is foraging through local wooded areas (in case that was your Plan B). ;-)
I suppose I could ask a friend in the burbs if I could drill holes in one of their trees. When they're finished laughing at me, maybe they'll say yes? :) (I think I had one too many eggnogs at our family get-together earlier this afternoon. I'm in a sillier-than-usual mood.)
Not knocking it--it's a great idea for those with trees in their yard! I would be ALL over this if I were one of them.
