How does GNC stay in business?

[FreakMonster]

I went into GNC today because I was given a gift card for $75. Who wouldn't pass up free supplements right. Well I walk in there and look at all the prices, mostly the protein section and everything, I mean EVERYTHING is marked up by $20. I was only able to get a box of Lean Body packets and a box of Detour bars. I always buy my shit on the Internet but how in the heck do they even stay in business when there are literally hundreds of websites selling supplements?

there r certain things, at least in Canada, i cant get at sports nutrition depot etc and i go there for, but i dont find the prices that bad..

i guess it depends what ur buying.. as Dev said.. you gotta look at prices
