They sell them in almost any grocery/pharmacy type store: walgreens, cvs, target. They are least expensive (at least in my area) at Walmart - usually $4.95 for a four pack. It's sometimes double that at the other places.

You can find Muscle Milk Light at our local Walgreens for about $7 a four-pack. BJs also carries it, and a case of 18 is about $25 or so.

Walgreens also carries Kays Naturals in their diabetes care dept. I've tried a bunch of different varieties, and the only one I like is the cinnamon almond cookie bites - but I like them a lot. They're only about $1.50 a pack.

Are you quickly trying to make it to 20 posts to get your ticker?

Are you looking for more information on Alternatives to cut cost?

Hi everyone..I am new and was looking for people that were using the portion control packets like ProtiDiet and WonderSlim. I started last Sunday and am loving it so far.

GNC is having 20% off sitewide -code RAKESAVE. Though Quest products are exempt from the sale, they are selling the chips online.

Lean meat classification isn't IP-specific, just use general FDA food guidelines:
Lean = 90% fat free
Extra lean = 95% fat free

I just tried the 'new' IP unrestricted Maple Oatmeal. I like it more than the Proti-Diet Oatmeal...but I like the cost effectiveness of the Proti-Diet Oatmeal more.
