Best/most economical bulk protein powders?

[AlexDavis43]

DPS Nutrition often has great deals on protein. Shipping is done by weight but they don't charge tax.

I'll second that Myprotein can have killer deals and I like their product. They're constantly throwing coupons out but the price per bag also changes so the deal is not always as good as it seems. I'd say at least once every other month there's actually a very good deal for them. If you use their app they give you a extra 5% off up top of the coupon as well.

Agree. At the end of the day, if final price is $10/lb after shipping ($20 if you want some fancy flavor or isolate) = good deal.

That's the one i'm mostly using since 2010. It had killer prices and right after corona it went more than double. I was buying 11lb of whey concentrate for 55€ and now i'm paying 62€ for the 5,5lb. Both of these prices are in the lowest when the promos take place, something like 45-50% discount. But as far as quality goes, it's the same with the more known brands like ON, scitec etc. Flavours, solubility and digestion is on point for me.

$10 per pound of whey protein is a very good price. Especially when you don't have to pay more for shipping (which should be incorporated into the calculation anyway)

I personally always factor in tax and shipping as that is what it costs me when purchasing things. On or offline. I also look to buying bulk when purchasing things. As i will use them anyway and prices just tend to go up.

If you have a calculator or can do this shit in your head, a good value whey protein should cost $0.05 per gram of protein (after taxes shipping etc)

$1 for 20 grams of protein.

$10 per pound of whey protein usually fits this.

Paying more usually means you're either getting special flavors, some fancy whey isolate or functional ingredients like prebiotics, or might be getting ripped off.

I try and keep it around 12-13 per lbs for isolate.

Another thing I notice about Myprotein is the different flavors will have different prices for the same size. Sometimes a different flavor will be $20 less. I'm not too picky besides a few that I really don't like, so I always click around and grab the cheapest.

I just picked up 15lbs of concentrate nutrex from muscle and fitness for 120 shipped no tax
Looks like you can get 20lbs for 140 shipped too. I should have done that lol.

Well my nutricost got lost in the mail so due to bighungballs and his post I bought 10lbs so I will give my 2 cents in a few days when I get mine! Hopefully it works out...

If you're susceptible to lactose stomach issues you may skip the concentrate for me it doesn't bother me so I get the cheap shit

I got iron guts.. the only thing is I can stand protein powder that is so thick you gotta almost chew it up. I accidentally bought some animal brand one time.... that was the most horrible crap.. I mean I dint see how they are even in business.

I have a 5 lb tub of nutricost isolate that Amazon has refunded me and told to do with the product as I wish if it happens to arrive.. it has circled through my local post office 2 times and now has just said in transit to next facility for a few days.. maybe I can have time to go up there on Saturday and ask them what they think. Anyone have this happen with a package?

Yeah. Things like that have happened to me a few times. A couple times the item never showed up or said delivered but wasn't delivered. I got a refund and then it showed up sometime later. One time I ordered something off Amazon and tracking said it was delivered but it never was. And Amazon sent me another in the second arrived. About 4 to 6 weeks after that the original one just magically appeared. Must have fallen into a hidden spot in the truck or something?

just received that bag of powder that big hung suggested and had some.. wasn't to bad.. had to pit just a little more water on it than I would like to get it to the consistency I wanted but definitely worth the price.... I guess I'll switch from isolate to whey!!

Ya for the price hard to beat. My protein shakes are more like meals.so consistency isn't a big deal for me. Usually add a serving of Greek yogurt, half a banana, a serving of whole oat flour, a serving of peanut flour, lactose free milk and the protien
