GNC

I visited this location yesterday because I was looking for Vita Coco and the website said that this is a location that carries it. When I walked in the young lady was helping someone at the register so I decided to look for it myself. The store is small so that was not an issue.
I only saw only one flavor of the Vita Coco (not the flavor I wanted) but I was willing to try it priced at $ 3.99. As I was waiting at the register I happened to see that they had a fridge and there was a chilled one in there so I switched it out. The lady was still helping the same customer. As I waited, she did not acknowledge me or even look at me once. I wasn’t sure how much longer she was going to be so I had to leave. It was around 5:40pm and I had to be somewhere at 6pm.
I will never visit this store again. It was my first time visiting and it will be my last. I had one item and if she would have acknowledged me instead of focusing on one customer the whole time, I probably could have made my purchase and she could have spent the rest of her day with that same customer. Luckily a nearby grocery store had the product there and in every flavor for $ 2.79. So I would like to thank the girl because I might have kept on going back just to spend a whole dollar extra each time.

I’m not one of those crazy body building junkies who have to have their vitamin/​steroid fix every couple of months, but I do like a good protein shake here and there when I work out.
All GNCs are typically the same size and all offer just about the same exact stuff. I really can’t see myself running back into a GNC though once I found its better half of supplements store. GNC really doesn’t have a whole lot. I never really thought that they got rid of certain products considering they have had the same products for years, but what they got rid of other places have.
I was a little miffed when I walked into the GNC at the Addison mall and I only saw about 2 – 3 different protein shakes. They weren’t even what I was looking for. The guy who worked there was really nice but talked our ears off about stuff we really didn’t care about. He was sweeping the floors and when we came in, he rushed right over. I think he was just looking for someone to talk to. Didn’t seem like this place got a whole lot of business. However, don’t try to sell me stuff I don’t want. He also spoke as if what he was saying was memorized or «rehearsed» beforehand. It didn’t seem like he really knew what he was talking about or about the health benefits. When my fiancé asked about a certain creatin that was tested to be the safest/​most effective, this guy had no clue what he was talking about cause it wasn’t sold there.
Another thing that I didn’t like about this guy there was that he kept pushing the GNC card on us. When we said «no» he kept going and would list off a string of new benefits the card would bring. It was annoying. You will find more products and better prices down the street. However, if you are bored and lonely one day, just drive down to this place. The guy who workd here will be more than willing to keep you company.
