If you have a Costco nearby...

They have whey protein by Webber Naturals - a combo pack 1 kg chocolate and 1 kg vanilla, for about $40 cdn.

Cheers!

Hey guyz and galz,

I got my Whey Protein called "Body Tech - Whey Tech" from the vitaminshoppe.
I think it is a new product from the Vitaminshoppe.
Now I don't wanna sound like an ad but I got 2 lbs for $17.37 - they are on sale I guess, original cost is $28.95.

This is the best deal I was able to find.

Loony

Hi Theresa,

The Costco I found it at was 3585 Grandview Hwy in Vancouver.
Carb count is 13.0g per scoop. (40g serving)

Happy shopping!

You dont say where you are from.
I buy Joe Weider's 100% vegetable protein in New Zealand for about $13 for 375g.
Has 17.6g protein and only 1.3g carb per 20grams.

I recently bought Optimum Nutrition's 100% Whey. The 10 lb. bag I got was 49.99 at a supplement store in my area. They have very low prices. They have a website www.dsnutrition.com and they deliver. Just whatever you do don't go to GNC and your best bet is to shop around in your yellow pages and price items at some of the smaller vitamin stores. That's at least how I found this place.

Check any natural food store that sells bulk. They should have some at prices WAY lower than those mixes.
