New Sticky Idea - Bodybuilding Discussion on Bodybuilding.net Site Suggestion/Feedback

Darkhorse · 06-22-2005, 12:23 AM

I think it would be good to have a price watcher sticky in the supplement forum. It could have ideas like where's the cheapest place to buy stuff or where the sales for supplements are at. Example: 1Fast400 is selling Substance WPI for half price to get rid of their stock. There could be helpful tips such as buying a bottle of pills (pinnacle esterfied creatine) from GNC and use 2/3 of the bottle then return it for a full refund. I complained my stomach hurt and they said here's your $$$...

Not a bad idea, do you think 1 thread is enough or does it need is own sub forum like "Supplement Savings" etc

i think a sub forum would be better... that way we could have multiple threads for "Fishoil on sale" or "Protein powder for cheap" isntead of having to scan through 1 thread (that may or maynot be up to date) for sales.

this way it would be sort of self-regulating as the sales that are no longer up-to-date will sink to the bottom. the sub forum could be purged of anything say 2-3 wks old if it gets crowded as sales usually dont' last much more than a couple weeks tops.

Word,... Sales rule. But I usually only buy from the same 3 sites, bn, vitacost and ibe at sales time. There are a bunch out there, sometimes with better sales than bn for protein powders.

So here is my list o places.

bn, loyal
vitacost.net - for misc things. they used to run sales all the time, now eddie has slowed down a bit.
proteins-

http://wholesalersuperstore.com/Manu...ufacturerId=28

I wonder how they taste. I grabbed 3 of the M&M ones BN was selling for $7.99, I add a scoop to my reg pro drink to add some flavor. Its great.

yeah for sales.

I think its a terrific idea ill be hitting all the sites.

good ideas, a sales thing would be really helpful. how about this one though...make a little section whereever u decide..but it will have topics like Creatine..then in that thread it would have everything u need for creatine like your creatine itself, maltose, dextrose, and anything else u guys come up with and where to get the stuff the cheapest. it would make it alot easier for people to buy stuff because then everything theyre going to have to buy is right there (especially if they are a newbie, and they might forget something)

Forum added, will test it for a while and see how it works out. A little afraid of spam, so we will see.
