General Nutrition Center

Pretty good staff runs a lot of worthwhile sales on items I use a lot — protein bars, supplements, etc. They take time to listen to customers and find out what they will need without overselling them. Prices tend to be a bit high but it’s worth looking around to find bargains. Store is laid out better than most GNCs and the place is always well stocked. I work near here and I visit rather often. Good stuff that won’t break your budget.

I can’t help but feel that every time I walk in here, I always end up walking out with an empty wallet and 2 large bags by my side. The guys in here are always very helpful in finding what I need, and might I also add very charming. I guess, this is why they call them «sales guys», huh? They know how to sell me when it comes to my nutritional needs. This might also have to do with the fact that I used to read a ton of fitness magazines and always want the newest formula whether it is protein, energizers, thermogenics, etc. I guess that is why it is so easy to coax me here. They know when someone who walks in knows what they’re talking about and easily able to sell something as oppose to someone who’s got no idea and is hard to convince and skeptical.
At any rate, the customer service in here is ecstatic, I love it! These guys are passionate about what they do and how they do it. The store is always well organized. Occasionally, you’ll see them unpacking their latest shipment, but that just means to me that they’re doing well and products are really moving, so I’m not getting some outdated item that’s been sitting on the back of their shelf for years.
I also can’t complain either, since I have the GNC card and get that extra discount the first 7 days of the month, in addition to any promos they are currently running. My only complaint really is the price. It seems to me that GNC seems to have the highest prices compared to any other nutrition/​supplement store. WHY?!
