Exclamation Fyi Atkin's Products Online

I had placed an order last week that included many Atkin's products. Among these, were the Lipolysis testing strips, and the Cinnamon breakfast bars. Well, the bulk of the order was shipped, sans the above two items.

Anyway, apparently, Atkin's is changing the packaging for the items available, and there is a severe backorder for these 2 things, and there may well be more products that become backordered.

You can get Atkins products, cheaper and faster, here http://www11.netrition.com.

Not sure if you knew this or not, but ording from their site is a lot more expensive.

Why, thank you, Niki. I did not know about that site. I ordered directly from the vitamin shoppe online, they were WAY cheaper than the Atkins site, but I will check your site, too. Thanks.

Careful purchasing on Ebay though. Soem people have purchased items only to find that they are way past the experation date. Make sure to read the seller reviews and buy from a respected seller. If you have any doubt, email the person and ask questions such as experation dates and if the package was opened even if not touched.

Thumbs up Lady Bell is correct!!

I checked out the E-bay offerings. Under the descriptions, you can rread about the boxes that are "half used", "un-opened, and "expires by . . " Then there are some things people are hawking just becuase they do not like, or want it.

LOL This boy is goin' to ye ole' Walmart, atkinscenter.com mentions it as a reatailer.

Lightbulb Walmart dosen't carry Much!

Hi!

Our Walmart only carries the peanut butter cups but no other products. No Atkins bake mix or anything. I have found the best selection of stuff at GNC, but they are pricey!!! If you have a Vitimin World there prices are better, but there selection is less. I have bought alot of Atkins stuff from Ebay and none of it has been expired or opened. You just have to check in the description or ask them.

Call your Walmart and ask what they carry before wasting your time.

Have A Great LCing Day!
Kathy

I think the best place to get Atkin's products is either GNC or Hi-Health (Hi-Health is my favorite). My local Walmart has a very limited selection. They carry the shakes, bars and pancake syrup but that is about it. I recently discovered a low carb mall that I did not know exsisted which is way cool but Hi-Health tends to have wonderful sales.

Here is the site for the Low Carb Mall . You can buy stuff online for decent prices.
