    GNC is such a rip-off....

    i started clen on monday...i had the potassium but didnt have the taurine... i wanted to make sure i had taurine for tuesday when i upped the clen dosage to 40mg... so i figure, what the hay... i went to gnc and bought 2 bottles...
    it cost $5.99 for 50 500mg tabs...---- then i saw on netrition that you can buy 50 1000mg tabs for $5.21... all this means is that GNC charges double for everything!!!
    moral of the story, have your suppliments/vitamens ready before you start a cycle....

    The only thing I buy from GNC is the stuff that is ready to expire they have on clearance.

    I always sway people from GNC and do not care for the rediculously priced products.

    What a coincedence per chance just before I came back here to read this. My fiance just called and asked bout stopping off at GNC to buy some vitamin E pills to help her nails and hair grow better and faster. I was like...oh hell no... Go to vitamin outlet or vitamin warehouse not GNC.

    GNC is such a joke..They do have a good return policy though....if you don't like it you can take it back for a full refund. So you buy a big tub of choclate whey, take it home dump it in a empty protein container, and fill their container back up w/ nesley quick...then return it for a full refund! :-)
    Next time order from: www.allsportsnutrition.com

    Yeah i've done it, and actually I kinda felt bad cuz I'm not a theif (like they are) so I stopped...Partly because I ran out of GNC's in my area to take the **** back to without getting noticed
    And when you buy the nestle quick, buy it at a sams club or somewhere where they sell the big tubs of it. Their only like $4, alot cheaper then buying it in a regular grocery store!
    And try to not hit the same GNC more then twice...

    Ok it was awhile ago that I did this but if I remember correctly...The chocolate ISO (8lbs of it) was around $55. So I went and bought 2 4lbs tubs of nestle quick for $3.25 each at sams club.
    So $3.25 X 2 = $6.50. $55 - $6.50 = $48.50
    Total savings = $48.50

    Just make sure you save your receipt! Cuz that's the only way you can get the cash refund!

    I hate those goofs that work in gnc and follow you around trying to sell you everything. I went there to buy a bottle of ephedra for 17.99 and the guy hands me a bottle of this syntraxx garbage with a 49.99 price and says to me
    cool as a cucumber...."you'll need these" i said why? "well its not safe without these" what a turd!!!!!! I said i'll take my chances thanks.
