There was a time when supplement stores were dead and everyone was using online but it seems that GNC franchises are popping up in every strip and shopping mall.  What gives?  Is it the crossfit generation making GNC viable again?

Shipping fees are a lot more expensive these days and people want instant gratification

Yeah I don't know how GNC does it either.  They are always overpriced on everything.  Mom and pop supplement stores are always the best way to go.

The few times a year I buy protein powder I buy online. Fuck the retailers and their mark-ups.

Its all about what you're willing to spend money on. just 5 years ago, it would have been out of the question to think that by 2012 most people would have a small computer in their pockets with an average $130/month data packages and extras all so they keep up with their friends.
