Thanks. I bought. I think the coupon applies for gatorade and some other products. I only had these once before but it was really good. $44 for 3 cases delivered is too good to pass up.

It looks like we won't get both the 15% off for subscription as well as the $25 for buying three.

Yeah i think so too. IIRC, previously could put them all in cart, apply the coupon, then choose to subscribe getting the extra discount. Then immediately unsubscribe. Seems like subscription is now only item by item so cant usually meet the normal coupon requirement
 
Thanks for the heads up, ordered 144 packets of fierce grape gatorade for $44 shipped. This is cheaper than I can normally get the powder so I was quite happy. Unfortunatly this shipped via FedEx home delivery... the only service worse than FedEx ground. Ah well, hopefully they get the right city this time...

not that it is diabetically friendly, but these are not soft drinks like soda. It has no added sugar to my knowledge. It's pure juice (70%) and sparkling water (30%). I am drinking a can right now. 1 can has 80 cal, 19g sugars 7% DV as compared to the same serving size of apple juice which is 114 cal, 24g sugars, 9% DV. 1 can of Izze pomegranate is 10% DV vit C, B6, Niacin.

Oh and same size in cola/soft drink would be 30g sugars (processed sugars), no nutritional value and 110 cal.

I hate to be argumentative here, but these drinks are hardly a nutritional powerhouse. The addition of a few vitamins does not magically make something "healthy." By any measure they are about on par with a soda.

By all means don't let that stop you from drinking them, but don't think that replacing soda with them is by any means a "healthy" change.

...And a diabetic can certainly get away with drinking these if the insulin schedule is adjusted to match and the carbohydrates are counted, as with ANY food.

My two cents.

I don't think I said it was healthy. I'm not sure why you insist on that term. All I did was state factual nutritional information. Since you brought it up, I will say though that it is clearly a "healthier" alternative to typical soft drink/soda. I'm not sure why you would argue that. The numbers speak for itself. Substantially less calories, sugars, and added vitamins does make something healthier.

Thirty calories/serving difference? Wow. A whole thirty calories? That means to make an actual difference in terms of weight I would have to drink a whopping 120 cans of these to displace the calories in one pound of fat.

...Fortifying a measly bit of vitamin content (and in this case vitamins which are ubiquitous in the food supply) into what is essentially a soft drink does not make a product healthier. They are putting vitamins into Coke/Pepsi nowadays - that does not make Coke and Pepsi healthy. Sorry.

Clearly, this is a difference of opinion. As I've said, there is nothing wrong with drinking this stuff, but if you are trying to cut your caloric intake this will barely make a drop in the bucket.

My two nutritionist cents.
