No wonder myprotein also never clarified about 60g of undeclared ingredients in every 1 kg of stuff.
Maybe myprotein didn’t want to ask the staff 🤣
Haha you 're right 👍
Anyone looking for some protein locally try SuperValu, 25% off and they have vouchers on the app to reduce the price a bit more
I see MyProtein have changed the way they do promotions and the reliable influencer codes no longer work. Not sure what to make of this, I was often able to make huge savings using the codes a few times per year and would stack up. I guess the upside is that there is no longer an element of roulette to the price you pay.
"From February, we’ll only be offering discount codes during exclusive sales periods. But just because our offers have changed, doesn’t mean you won’t get great deals. It just means they’ll be even clearer from now on. "

I doubt we'll be better off, but a lot of the time the influencer codes were an extra 2% on 45% off so not massive in the scheme of things. The real bargains have been those ltd edition and coffee flavours.
Even with discount codes, that's ridiculously overpriced! Lowest you might be able to get it to is €38/kg when the usual price point for a good deal on MyProtein is about €15.
it may not be a cheap way compared to what we usually pay but if someone wants to try the clear version it’s alright and it’s totally different in texture, herself loves it compared to the usual shite I have in the kitchen
I had a €10 off €50 spend and used one4all gift cards so got two of them
perfect with ice on a warm day
Ive knocked my protein on the head aswel just not worth the hassle or price, ive since being buying German Forge Protein Professional whey protein, can get just under 5kg for 55e worth looking into for anyone looking for alternatives
@joe199 where are you buying that and whats the taste like?
Check the label. I seen it before and it was only 50% protein and a lot of carbs.
Think I'll stop buying protein now too. Can't justify the price and to be honest it might challenge me to find other sources of protein in my meals
The whole attraction of whey protein is it was supposed to be a cheap food source. If it's costing more than chicken and eggs or whatever.
Whey Protein should be around 2 euro/100g with discount. That'd be about 400g of chicken. I don't think I want my chicken to be less than 5 euro a kilo. Do people have any cheaper sources? still looks liek whey for me.
I have been using https://www.insidenutrition.com/ for my last couple of orders and am quite happy, good tasting flavours and works out at around 19 euro per kilo delivered when you using code thanks15 and spend over 45 for free next day delivery
This is about the same delivered before any discount.

Myprotein are doing the Total Protein Blend 5kg for between €67-71 depending on flavour
https://www.myprotein.ie/sports-nutrition/total-protein-blend/10529951.html
Just ordered strawberry 67 euro delivered same product from bulk was 122 euro! Madness
Perfectbody.ie mate tastes fine, i have cookies and cream flavour, there is 30g of carb per 100g which might not be ideal for everyone
Thanks for that.
The unflavoured ones always have more protein per 100g. That's what I always get. You get used to the flavour after a while. Bear Grylls drinks piss, so unflavoured shouldn't be a problem for us.
What is the texture of the Protein Blend like, same as Whey?
Bought Milk Protein based on a similar offer a while ago and it’s very grainy, wouldn’t buy it again.
I found the same...it wouldn't mix into solution with water too well. But I discovered a fix: mix a bit of casein in with it, if you have it. Even a few grams will help it go to solution really easily. Helps getting rid of the casein too.
Cheers, I will try and and pick up some casein on my next order, will help getting through the 2.5kg bag.
MyProtein still holding strong on their new "no more promos; everyday low prices" policy. Let's see who caves in first...
Had stuff in the basket before the last promo ran out in January and the total has gone up by 30% since then and never came down.
Not a big fan of their whey protein but I was buying it together with a number of other supplements and food which had some hefty discounts. I'm a bit lost at the moment...
It'd seriously depress you looking at your order history if you're a long time MP customer. Went back to an order from 2017 and I see I paid €26 for 2.5kg whey. €67 this morning. Bulk is even worse.
When I was cleaning up a few weeks ago I found a sealed 2.5kg bag of BP whey with an expiry of 08/2020. I don't know how I "lost" a 2.5kg bag and didn't notice tbh. What do we think lads, should I risk it? Desperate to save a few shekels 😄
i have some from 2020 that is horrible and i go back to every now and then and it is fine
There must be a serious drop off in orders in MP, I’m sure that was to be expected but I’d like to think there will be some sort of sale soon to get orders in
Since 2020 when the hut group peaked its constantly lost money
Very pleased I kept going back for the limited edition and coffee ones when they were available anyway.
I paid €48 for 5kg of whey in April 2021, the best I saw it at lately was €45 for 2.5kg around black Friday.
anyone knowing somewhere selling cheaper protein bars these days (that doesn't involved bulk buying)? aldi ones that were €2 got called back & havne't come back, lidl 3 packs that were €3.80 have been out of stock for ages, other single ones that were €1.60 are going out of stock by the looks of it (only one of the two flavours there in a few of the lidls i looked, & staff said not sure if getting back in)
