    Better off ordering online for best deal . Many sites including myprotein.co.uk are recommended on here.

    Go here and have a look, you will save money www.myprotein.co.uk

    for a 5lb tub you pay €36-37 approx incl postage.
    http://www.myprotein.co.uk/products/true_whey
    recommend choc mint

    or you can buy a pouch for much less €29-€30
    http://www.myprotein.co.uk/products/impact_blend
    recommend choc smooth



    for a 5lb tub of competitior brand you pay anywhere from €45 to €59
    If you are going to go with a competitior brand i would recommend Reflex instant whey.

    They also stock cheap vitamins and other sports supplements.

    www.discountsupplements.co.uk


    but myprotein is better IMO

    I get mine from http://www.nutritionx.ie/

    Mostly next day delivery and I'm happy with the prices. Their Pro X stuff is the nicest I've ever tasted. Almost like a proper strawberry milkshake.

    €45 for a 4lb tub (60 servings) (WHEY AND GLUTAMINE) :eek:

    You would think they would at least stock it in a 5lb tub like most competitiors

    If you got true whey 5lb tub(90 servings) and glutamine 500g(100 servings) pouch from myprotein it would cost you the same, but better value :cool:

    They do stock 5lb whey tubs.

    I've tried the myprotein stuff and didn't like it to be honest. Plus I think the pouches are stupid. They never seem to close properly.

    What exactly did you try?

    Its easy empty a pouch into an empty tub.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 326 ✭✭DARCHA22


    PRO X on the site you quoted only has 4lb tubs of that product. I was just saying it would probably be better for their customers to make it a 5lb tub for that price of PRO X.
    But if your happy with something why change it.


    I have never had a problem with myprotein pouches not closing.


    that reminds me must get me some more hurricane xs :D

    GOOD LUCK :cool:

    yeah sorry I meant they have 5lb tub of other whey products but not the ProX.
