Any Aussies? Help Me Out

[noober]

hey guys im studying abroad in australia and leaving thursday. my freind who i am going with spoke to his friend who is already there and he said that at GNC he paid 180AUD for a 5lb tub of protien which comes out to about 135USD.
Is this BS or are supps really that expensive down under?
Or is there a good site that you reccomend for while im over there or a cheap shop that us americans wouldnt know about?

hey bro im in new zealand whioch is practically the same as aus, protein is more expensive over here (i would love it if we could get 5lbs for 30 bucks) but not to the degree ur friend said, dymatize or ON whey will set you back around 80 australian dollars. there are a lot of different types around that much. also look online at australian suppliers as its cheap and quick shipping, if your payin 180 aus dollars that will before nitrotec hardcore or products like that. so to answer you question no protein is not that expensive over there.

thanks for you help but packing ten pound bags in my suitcase is very unrealistic im allowed two suitcases and theres a 70 pound weight limit and im gonna be there for 5 months so im basically packing my life up so theres no space for those huge bags...
but thanks for the input about it not being as expensive as i thought i apppreciate it.
