Shipping? Who pays shipping? You’re supposed to order enough to get free shipping!

No, we’re not supposed to do anything. The system is designed to encourage us to spend more, but to say we’re SUPPOSED to? And regardless we pay for the shipping either way. It costs Biotest money to ship us the products even if it’s reflected as being free…and since it raises the price on their end (example the bars are more money now b/c it costs Biotest more to make them) I would imagine that it’s reflected in their cost to us (rightly so in any good business model).
I think the name change is well warranted. In fact I wanted my gf to try one of the bars once and she refused because she didn’t want my bodybuilding supplement getting her big and buff like male bodybuilders.

Well, if you want to argue about the minutia, then yes, the shipping is already figured into the price of the product. Wooptie Freakin’ Doo! Why would I want to pay shipping on top of shipping if it’s done that way? I don’t. I think I can manage to order the minimum amount needed to get the “free shipping.” Then I have enough stuff to last me 2-3 months as well.
Yes, it’s encouraged to get you to buy more. I don’t care. I know what I want. I know what I’m going to use, and it’s not like it’s a big deal to order more at once rather than weekly or bi-weekly orders as needed.
i was disappointed with both bars to be honest.
taste? ok - good
ingredients? i think there needs to be some tweaking. possibley a low-carb version?
just some thoughts

And what have you had that’s better? detour and snickers dont count.
you complain about the taste and want a low carb version? maybe you should just stick with the powder…
Thanks for switching the name. Your right on about women being turned off the Grow! name. Now my wife will finally at least try the Metabolic bars! WOMEN!
