How GNC $1 Drink Days Work
GNC has been running $1 drink deals for years, and the last round this spring ran in stores only, with one brand featured each day. That round had a limit of 6 drinks per customer, or 12 for GNC PRO members, and not every location participated. Expect the October round to work the same way, but call your local GNC before you go to make sure it is taking part and has stock, especially for the protein shake days.
Best Days to Stock Up
With the prices of protein nowadays, the protein shake days are a steal. The Barebells milkshakes on October 28 and the Redcon1 MRE shakes on October 29 are the ones I'd circle, along with Dymatize on October 26 and Bucked Up on Halloween. If you are more of an energy drink person, RYSE on October 23 and Gorilla Mind on October 24 are great days to try a few new flavors for $1 each.
My Take
If you've been wanting to try or stock up on any of these, this is the cheapest time to do it. Ten straight days of $1 drinks is hard to beat. Watch my video breaking down the full schedule, and let me know which day you're showing up for.
Bottom Line
GNC $1 Drink Days run October 22 through October 31, with a different brand each day. Save the schedule, check that your local store is participating, and plan your stock-up days around the protein shakes.
