Forgot to mention, the huge tubs of whey isolate protein powder are $10 off at Costco right now. I think it's about $35 a container now (5kg)

In case you guys don't know, if you use internet explorer instead of Chrome, the free shipping also takes off tax because Super Saver shipping includes tax and the free shipping makes it free. When I used Chrome I would get charged tax.

I bought 2 tubs of whey + a dip belt and saved an extra $6 in taxes

Have any of you guys used those test boosters before? I'm going to put my order into BB.com tomorrow and was considering tossing in a bottle to try it out. Is it just wasted money? I'm 24 if that helps so my natural test levels shouldn't be that low (compared to mid-40's male)

I wouldn't recommend boost test cuz your so young, natural test doesn't even start to drop till your at least 30, you probably wont feel a thing cuz its already at its peak at age 24.

I just got off beast supertest, didnt feel much but I like it for the liver detoxification. also gives me good dose of zinc and mag.

yup. im more prone to stay away from products that are labelled after people. ie crosby line hockey gear.. it's gimmicky and makes them seem like they are trying to appeal to joe blow who don't know anything, which is a turnoff for me

The funny thing is, he has a huge article on his very own site, written by the guys from examine.com, pretty much debunking the idea of different brands of whey being better than the other.

BTW that article is highly recommended.

i hate that all supplements seem to have artificial sweetener.. i guess for low carb stuff, they obviously can't use sugar... at least some companies are starting to use stevia. im glad to see kaizen whey does not have acesulfame K

No I definitely did not get charged tax. When I used Chrome, my total was higher because they had an 'estimated tax' portion. When I used IE, that 'estimated tax' portion was not there so my total after the free shipping and the 10% off code was lower. I had both browsers open.

There's a thread on RFD about it that's how I found out in the first place.

I wonder which one is the glitch... the no tax, or the tax! Correct me if I am wrong, but I think tax is only applicable if bought locally? I will email them and see what the deal is.

So I just contacted them, and they said the taxes should be added, and if it isn't, it's a glitch with IE
