The Cheap Whey Thread

What's a carb? A car part? What's a macro? A type of camera lens?

Yes it's the concentrate. You can get 11lbs of isolate 2-3 times a year for arond $65. Deal only works on the concentrate and I don't know if it's still live now.

Just made a successful order.
Finally made it to checkout.
That code still works for the single 11lb bag of concentrate.

I have some new extensions in my browser that seem to have been the problem.
For once it's not their site's fault.

Thanks.
Another cupon site to add to my speed dial.
Ordered a bag.
I think that is almost the full year covered for my concentrate.
May need to buy a bag of iso for wife still.
She goes through it much slower.

@Laughter95 What is the name of that cupon site?
It's gone from my history when i ordered.
I want to bookmark it for future reference.
Morgan something.

Thanks again.

The trick is to make an account and do a deals alert for "myprotein"

Wish i had noticed that, but i still have like 2/3rds or so of a 20 kilo bag for wifey.
Plenty of time,at the rate she uses it, to find a deal.
And the concentrate is still definitely needed.

Tried the code again, but looks like a one off.

Yep, it died fast this time. They put this ~$4.30/lb price three times during the last 40 or so days. Wouldn't be surprised if they continued discounting considering the global economic slump.

I just paid 65 dollars shipped for the concentrate shipped. I am almost out and I am not going to fart around hoping for a little better price in the middle of this Coronavirus bullshit. This stuff mixes like a dream and it’s still way cheaper than my old protein powder.

I just opened a bag. I agree this $65 is a good price. I don't need any for a while, should I buy?

I guess it depends on your budget/income.

If i can get it cheap. i'll buy 4.
Usual total for 4 has been $227 with shipping, tax, and paypal surcharge.

Because i have so much on hand, i can wait for the best price each time.
I've purchased two single bags recently with these one off $50 (total cost) codes.
I think i'm one bag away from my full year needs.

Still on the lookout for a deal on isolate, though that supply (for my wife) is nowhere near running out.

Good idea stocking up. You're going to use it anyway, it won't depreciate or go bad in the time that you're shelving it.

I didn't read far enough into this. I'm an isolate guy (gut stuff), and at $84/11lb I'm not sold. I'll be watching this thread, because I know y'all will be watching the sales.

Try the codes on isolate.
If i'd have known the last one worked on iso, i would definitely have done that.
I shifted to concentrate for bulking, and i think it's actually marginally cheaper per gram net protein.

Even if i'm cutting, it still works, as i struggle to get 3,300 to 3,400 daily when bulking.
Cutting is basically a welcome relief for me.

More carbs too, but it doesn't throw me off my numbers.

Myprotein was $54 for an 11 pound bag. I got mocha and chocolate brownie batter.

You have to watch these bastards like a hawk.
"50% off" email, and i'm still in the first hour of the declining discount (which wtf kind of bullshit is that anyway?)

2 11lb bags concentrate with discount applied = $139 and change. basically $140.

When i get my best price besides those one off slickdeals coupons, i come out at $227 or $228 for 4 11 lb bags.
That's been with 45% off deals.

So yeah, $280 with 50% off is their sketchy shit once again.
Really wish bulksupplements price for 20kilos would come back down.

Chocolate Smooth is a safe bet... tastes pretty good by itself and has lots of mixing potential for smoothies and such. Personally though I like Salted Caramel best if I'm just drinking it with water, which is usually what I do.
