WTF!? Sad but i hear it nearly every day. the primary ingredients in most of the fat burners we have is caffeine, yohimbine , and hoodia all of which you could find in raw form to be cheaper and more effective. most of the protein powders we have are pretty good but way overpriced. the vitamins are good quality stuff but also way overpriced. and corporate wants us to be very deceiving towards customers and push products that are shit. i could bitch about gnc all day if i had time. what you got to look for is expiring products. we have to mark them down quite a bit as they get closer to their expiration date. really busy gnc's wont have much expiring product but if you find one in a not busy area i would check it out. you can get stuff up to 75% off.
