Yes, prices on most proteins have gone up considerably here over the last several years.

Last year's drought was expected to impact milk prices, but they've actually held pretty steady - at least where I live. Someone had mentioned a govt cap, but I don't know the details.

That's why I wait until they go on clearance, especially the GNC brands. They get marked down to as low as 25% of the regular retail price.

Yes, there's no reason anyone should ever pay full/suggested retail price for supplements.

Especially, when all you have to do is be patient.

With that said, Sam's Club usually keeps its protein powders reasonably priced, usually between $28 and $35 for a 4-lb bag.
