Do you guys buy bulk protein online?
2-5 lbs contains online or from supp stores?

In other words, I would like to know how you get your protein :)

I found a sup shop locally that has deals better then most online called body systems. They have really reasonable specials. I just bought 3 two ib containers of prolab whey for 48$

I buy by the 50# from the US, otherwise it ends up being far more expensive. Order along with a bunch of other necessary supps like fish oil, and however you cut it, overall it's way cheaper than here, which is sad.

used to use tp, their stuff all tasted like dirt or chalk with flavourings.

now i buy wherever, but from fitness etc about 40% of the time... usually 5-10lbs at a shot.

Really? Mine finally arrived after the UPS BS but it tastes better than EAS products. Not as good as ON, but mine has no artificial sweetners.

I prefer buying online because, despite what a moron at Pop Eyes might tell you, it is cheaper. I remember one guy trying to convince me that buying online is not cheaper because the stores inflate the price? I was told him in this instance the EAS products was cheaper than online, but don't tell my that $90 for a bag of ON is more expensive than $140 here. I am not a retard.

Freeze maybe consider giving TPC a shot, but if you live in an apartment and can't be home for delivery than expect to have to deliver the package to the UPS store on Maisoneve or go to Lachine to pick it up.

True Protein... Its cheap, tastes good, mixes fine, and no shit added to it, just protein. I usually order 32lb. at a time..

Agreed but you have to order quite a bit at once to save any money as they seem to rape you on the shipping charges

How long have you worked for them? :p

It is kinda cheap-ish,
Tastes like chalk,
and doesn't mix worth a shit, unless you use a blender for 10 minutes.

I think ON Whey is the best. I get the 10lb bag for $90-something and it lasts me the whole month.

Naw i don't work for them. They are half the price of what i would pay locally. As for taste, who cares. I guess if you shake it like a 12 year old girl you might have to use a blender, otherwise it mixes just fine.:D

Why doesn't one of these sites do the same as tpc/vantege? I'd be up in buying from them to help support the sites. Kind of like helping eachother no?

TPC has changed, I find them much better tasting and easier mixing than they used to be. Worth another shot imo

taste is important to me... after drinking shakes for the better part of 20 yrs ,it gets more important all the time!

as far as the blending, how can i help it if i have flimsy wrists?

Now this is a very good idea. Might be a way to keep the site(s) running for a long time.

The only reason I bought it was cause it was $20 cheaper for a 5lbs tub than ON.
I like TPC though because the less artificial sweatners the better.

ps. Does anyone else think that weight gainers are just an expensive form of carbs and proteins?

i think you can make your own weight gain with milk powders and whey priotein get milk powders bulk, or use nestle choc milk powder, thats all most weight hgainers are sugar and protein
