I know ... I know ... I know they aren't cheap and I should get over it but someone mentioned on one of the threads they buy it for like $1.84 a bar.

The other day I bought @ GNC for $2.49 ... Is there anywhere I can get it cheaper than $2.49?

Will be willing to carry your bags at airport for a genuine $1.84 Quest Bar tip and if you are flying to Timbaktu :flowerforyou:

Thanks for all the suggestions and help.

Have a wonderful and awesome day everyone.

    There really isn't a place to just buy them cheap, unfortunately.

    You need to price around, keep an eye out for sales or GNC coupons. I usually end up ordering mine through GNC or Vitamin Shoppe when they have sales going on. Sometimes Quest has special offers going on with free bars, mixed box discounts, etc.

    I bought some from bodybuilding.com for $1.99 each. Not sure what the cases cost...

    If you buy them by the box, you can get for $24.99 on amazon, vitaminshoppe.com or the actual quest site and generally find a way for free shipping....that works out to 2.08 a bar roughly. If you watch the quest site, they often run promos for free bars, or bogo 1/2 off, and you can also often find a coupon for gnc or vitamin shoppe to bring the costs down there another few bucks. I love me some quest bars, but will not buy them unless I find a "deal" :)

    Short answer is you cant find for 'cheap' but you can get better than that. You can buy from drugstore.com for 5% cash back and free shipping though. Practically everywhere is $24.99 a box. Amazon, Quest's site, etc.

    A case of 12 is $24.99 on bodybuilding.com or from Quest's website, that's the cheapest I've found them. The only downside to a case is there's no mix and match with a case. You can get variety bundles off Amazon for a little more (like $29-30). Quest bars aren't cheap, but IMO they are worth the extra $$.

    If you have a GNC gold card it's buy 3 get 1 free at 2.84 which takes them down to 2.13 each or a box is 24.99.

    I've looked online and by the time I pay for shipping it's cheaper to get them locally.

    the cheapest i found was on eBay - and even then, you have to price out shipping in the cost-per-bar comparison. and unfortunately, it wasn't $1.86!

    good luck!

    I usually end up buying mine from GNC when a sale comes around. They have a 30% off every now and again, and once or twice a year they do buy one get one free which gets them down to about $1.50 per bar when you buy them by the box.

    My suggestion would be to sign up for Slickdeals.net (it's free), which essentially is a website that skims the internet for the best deals on products. You can set up price alerts for specific products so you'll get emails whenever good prices comes around.

    I use this for quest bars, protein powder, etc.

    The cheapest I've ever seen them was for $20 in person at the Arnold Expo.

    If you cruise the web, getrippednutrition.com has them every now and then for $20 plus shipping for a box of twelve.

    I usually get mine straight from Quest because I think they are fresher that way and usually get free shipping. And while this is a long time off still, there was fantastic Cyber Monday deals on them on the Quest site. So keep that in mind come November. I got 3 boxes and it worked out to be about $1.57/bar.

    Thankfully there is a family-owned grocer/nutrition store here that sells them for $2.05 each.

    Not sure if you have Hy-Vee grocery stores where you live. They often have them on sale for $1.49 or $1.99!

    There is a Nutrishop in the Bay Area, CA that sells from for $20/box and it happens to be right near my family so whenever I visit I stock up on a few boxes. They sell out very fast so they are always fresh. If I run out before then I'll buy from Quest's site because they are fresh. I've had issues with buying them on Amazon and getting very stale ones. Follow Quest on Facebook for deals, I got a coupon for $20/box online and they have links to free bars occasionally.

    Amazon or GNC when they are running a special.

    I buy them directly from their website www.questprotienbar.com. Use the code ONAQUEST and you get free shipping. I think I pay $24.99/box (of 12) but they throw in a freebie most of the time too. You can save even more if you sign up for their automatic delivery program.

    For me it seems the quest site is the cheapest with free shipping; shipping is a bit slow though. But with their discount and a free one, I just ordered a bunch for an average of 1.99 each.

    I eat quite a lot of these, and after looking around I found that www.healthynotion.com usually provides me with the cheapest price.

    The only time I've bought a box for the general price of $24.99 was during the launch of the Cookies n Cream.

    I generally wait until GNC has their 30% off promo. You have to be careful though because since QuestBars have been getting more popular, they tend to jack up the price. However, I recently bought 6 boxes and 6 bars for around $100 by using a $50 off coupon from GNC.

    Wouldn't surprise me if they threw you a freebie. I ordered samples two months ago that never arrived, so I e-mailed them on Monday to ask if that was normal or if I should re-request them. They apologized and shipped me some free bars (as a comped order, not a sample request). I got them today and am psyched to try them.

    They later contacted me to make sure my customer service experience was good.

    It sounds like they're a solid company, and I really appreciated their prompt and friendly response!

    Found this Ebay listing, if you do the math after shipping, its $1.87 per bar, but you have to get 60 though.

    I wish we had Hy-Vee in VA. I went to one in Iowa and loved it

    I just ordered myself and went to the iHerb.com site. I used code ZPF881 and received 2 boxes with 12 bars each for a total of about 44 dollars...the coupon is only good for first time users so if you never ordered from there it is great as shipping was free too...this came to about $1.83 a bar...

    GNC has the buy two boxes get one free going on right now. It is expensive to put it out at one time, but much cheaper in the long run.

    They're over $4 each in the UK or $40 for a box of 12!

    I buy most of my supplements from All Star Health (allstarhealth.com).

    I have found they usually have the best prices on most things, and they have certain items, when added to your cart, get you free shipping on the entire order.

    Peter Gillham vitamins and minerals are a couple of the items that get you free shipping.

    The Quest site has them for $2.39/bar and you can get free shipping now if you use promo code 'OnAQuest'. Just put my order in now.
