Fathers Day Gift Card to GNC

So I got a gift card to GNC for Fathers Day. Although I dont usually go there....its the thought that counts. I have 150 US dollars to spend so I thought I would ask you all out there what would YOU get?
So toss me your ideas and help me spend my gift.

Mega Man multi-vitamin. Vitamin C chewables. Protein powder is way over priced. Protein bars/cookies/drinks. Amino acids. What do you take now?

Speaking of protein powders, I was in there the other day just browsing around as a time killer. I ended up buying this 7.5lb container of Isopure protein powder for $80 even though it is advertised as $150. The powder that I normally buy is like $35 for 29.68oz (1.8lbs)...so it was an easy purchase. Turns out they have discounts on a lot of stuff that is unadvertised, and if you ask for it...they give it to you. That's just from the mouth of one of the employees.

Creatine monohydrate is pretty reasonably priced there as well.

Meh. GNC is notorious for overpriced shit. However, I wouldnt be surprised if some items are cheaper there than what you can find on the internet.

wow, you don't think $80 for 7.5 lbs is overpriced??? Damn, I am pretty sure you can get EAS protein powder at BJs for like $28 for a 5 lb bag, and I've seen ON Whey online for $68 for a 10lb bag.

Isopure has always been expensive itself.

Why not get him a gift card to the place you DO go to next time? They have gift cards at online stores too...

So I made my purchase today and hope to see some good results from the items that follows.

SuperPump250 and SizeOn 2.8 pound containers...
Novedex XT and PlasmaJet 30 day supply....
MyoFusion Protein 2lb container....
Ultimate Nutrition Mass gainer 10lb container...
I also got some samples of Mitotropin and some other protein packets as well as a new shaker cup and a "free" t-shirt.

I already have my fish oil and multi vitamin along with ON Whey that I have been taking. I hope this will prove to be worth the price of 175 US dollars.
I thought about taking the 1 Andro RX with this but I think I will wait and see what results I obtain and then maybe run the 1-Andro alone after this stack.

Thanks to all the forum members who provide valuable information in this forum as I read more than I post.
