Creatine Price Comparison

Per 5g serving, as of early 2026:

BulkSupplements 1kg bag ~$0.07/serving

ON Micronized (120 servings) ~$0.17/serving

MuscleTech Platinum ~$0.20/serving

GNC House Brand ~$0.30/serving

Bottom line: BulkSupplements is the cheapest. ON is what you already have and it's solid. Don't buy creatine at GNC — you're paying 4x more for the same molecule.

Aldi Money Hacks

Hack

Wednesday = New Ad Day

Aldi's new weekly ad starts Wednesday. Hit the store Wednesday morning for best selection on Aldi Finds (limited stock items like protein bars, collagen powder, meal prep containers).

Hack

Buy Produce in Season

Mangos, berries, avocados — prices swing hard by season. Buy frozen berries year-round (same nutrition, way cheaper). Mangos are cheapest April-August. Stock up on Aldi's frozen fruit blends for shakes.

Hack

Family Pack Chicken = Best Price

Aldi's family pack chicken breast is usually $1.99-2.49/lb — cheaper than any other grocery store. Buy 2 packs, freeze one. Same goes for ground turkey. Thighs are even cheaper ($1.49/lb).

Hack

Aldi Brands to Trust

Friendly Farms Greek Yogurt — same as Chobani, half the price
Simply Nature Oats — same as Quaker, $2 less
Happy Farms Eggs — $2-3/dozen, quality is fine
Earth Grown — their plant-based line (if she wants plant options)
Elevation Protein Bars — when in stock, $5 for a box of 4 (vs $12 for Quest)

Gym Gear Deals

Save

Meal Prep Containers

Don't buy branded "fitness" containers. Get glass containers from Aldi ($8-10 for 5-pack) or Amazon Basics ($15 for 10-pack). Same thing, no markup. Glass > plastic.

Save

Blender Bottles

Dollar Tree and Five Below carry shaker bottles for $1-5. The $30 BlenderBottle brand is the exact same thing with a logo. Save your money.

Save

Gym Clothes

Walmart's Athletic Works and Amazon Essentials gym shorts/shirts are $8-12 each. Don't pay $50 for Gymshark to do the same thing. You're here to lift, not model.

The real savings math: BulkSupplements creatine + ON whey on Subscribe & Save + Aldi groceries = roughly $60-80/week for BOTH of you. That's cheaper than eating out 3 times. The gym investment pays for itself in health savings long-term.
