GO TO GNC

When you get a chance, head on over to your local GNC and buy some whey protein. While it’s true, I’d rather be caught dead than inside one of those vitamin stores; that shouldn’t stop you from venturing off into it to allow some idiot sell you overpriced vitamins and supplements. I buy my stuff via Amazon. For those of you who are too lazy to buy something online and need to “touch and feel” your protein, head on over to GNC and buy a few gallons of the stuff.

VSI just reported better than expected results, which doesn’t exactly jibe with what the retards at GNC had to say. Either way, there is great earnings power at the Radio Shack of vitamins and I am betting for a resurgence this spring. After all, people are generally awkward and fat, in need of self-improvement. Just because you’re too snobbish and “experienced” to visit a GNC, that doesn’t mean that the layman Burger King advocate can’t find value there.

I am long and will add to my position.

Moving alone, I will reserve my commentary until I see this market trade. It can go either way. Nevertheless, you and I both know where it’s going, ultimately.

    Dr. Fly, as a teenager in the 80’s, I preferred to train at a private gym instead of the high school’s. In regards to supplements, the older man that owned the club once said to me “They could put dog shit in a can, and if they said it would make you more muscular, people would buy it.” Over the decades, I’ve observed this to be true. It’s merely human nature, and it bodes well for companies like GNC & VSI.

    Whenever I go into a GNC I am usually the only on in there. Could they be going the ‘whey’ of the booksellers? AREX is running and I’m still holding.

    i used to work at GNC, the vast majority of people would come in and buy whatever I told them. Often times $300-400.
