I'm trying to put on a little weight the healthy way, and instead of eating massive amounts of cereal I feel like I should switch to protein shakes. However, I'm a broke college student and can't really afford $30 or $40 containers of protein powder =/
Does anyone have any recommendations of good-tasting and reasonably priced protein powders?
Thanks for the help in advance :D

    My husband is one to try and gain healthy weight too. I'm not sure if you are looking at the serving sizes on the packages but don't think you have to have the entire one. He tends to mix 1 cup of milk with 1/3 of the serving twice a day and he does pretty well. He buys GNC stuff but I'll see what my boss is drinking. She just started a protein shake of some sort. She's a penny pincher so I'm sure it couldn't be too expensive.

    For online stores check out drugstore.com. You can usually get free shipping and you earn drugstore dollars you can use at the beginning of the next quarter.

    bodybuilding.com is prompt and their flat rate shipping cost is $5. I get OPTIMUM NUTRITIONS 100% Gold Standard Whey and Nitrocore 24. Great products.
