12pk Wickedly Prime Cherry Nut Crunch for $8

Thanks to a 25% off clip-on coupon, the price of the 12-pack of Wickedly Prime Bars, more specifically the “Fruit, Nut and Seed Bars” of the Cherry Nut Crunch flavor. Such a long name 🙂 Each individually wrapped bar is 1.4 ounces. The coupon drops the price from $12~ to $8 with free shipping for Prime members (or $1 digital credit for no-rush credit orders).

12pk Maple SeaSalt RXBARs for $20

My #2 favorite RxBar at the moment is the “Maple Sea Salt” and the 12-pack of this more juicy/most flavor (compared to the others) is on sale for $20 with a “Subscribe and Save” or $21 as a normal purchase at amazon.com. This has lovely sea salt crystals too, they are as big as the universe. Okay, not that big, but they are visible and you can feel/taste them. A plus if you like saltiness without a lot of salt!

14 RXBars for $20.79 with free shipping [two flavors]

If you are on the RXBar hype train, their official RXBAR online store has another limited time promotion! Two 12-pack flavors are on sale for $20.79 each with free UPS ground shipping, the “Coffee Chocolate” and the “Apple Cinnamon”, but that’s not all! For a limited time, every purchase gets two FREE full size bars, one of each of the aforementioned flavors! The offer is good for everyone, not just new customers!

If you are not interested in these flavors, but want to stay under $21 per 12-pack, Amazon has on sale for $21 (normal purchase) or $20 (Subscribe and Save) the following two flavors:

+ Coconut Chocolate

+ Mint Chocolate (this flavor is growing on me)

+ Mixed Berry

My current Top 5 of RxBars

  1. Chocolate Sea Salt
  2. Maple Sea Salt
  3. Coconut Chocolate
  4. Mint Chocolate
  5. Mixed Berry (the most divergent of the flavors)

12pk Quest Vanilla Almond Crunch for $12.50

Thanks to a limited time 50% off clip-on coupon at Amazon, you can get a 12-pack of Quest Vanilla Almond Crunch bars for $12.50 as a normal purchase or slightly less if you do the good old “subscribe and save”. Lots of people love Quest bars, but I personally find the taste a bit too artificial, which is probably why I prefer the Rxbars which only have real food ingredients with the most offensive thing being “natural flavors”…

Coupon code rxbarnew17 is back and it gets you 25% off your order. You have to be a first time shopper at their website for the coupon to work. Details in our previous RxBar Mega-Post

Earnest Eats and GFB Bars join the $2 Nutrition Bar Samples

Two more brands have joined the party in the very populous Amazon “Granola and Nutrition Bars” $2 samples category! The new additions are from Earnest Eats and Gluten Free Bar (GFB).

+ Earnest Eats Baked Whole Food Bar, Choco Peanut Butter, 1.9 Ounce
+ Cranberry Lemon Zest – 1.9 oz

+ GFB High Protein Bites, Dark Chocolate Coconut, 4 Ounce
+ GFB Oatmeal Power Breakfast, Apple Cinnamon, 2 Ounce
+ GFB Chocolate Peanut Butter, 2.05 Ounce

STRATEGY
As with other samples, you can spend/redeem your $2 credits later on any of the brands eligible for redemption. So this is a good opportunity to try different things but use your credits to buy your favorites. For example, if you are a fan of RxBars, you can buy every single $2 sample from every available different brand, and spend all your credit on the eligible RxBar 12-packs. Nom-nom-nom 🙂

New Amazon $8 Gatorade Nutrition (non-liquid) sample box [Prime only; Free Shipping]

If you are a fan of Gatorade and an Amazon Prime member, you’ve found the right spot! Amazon has launched a new Gatorade Sample Box. You pay $8 with free standard shipping (you can’t check the shipping speed on Amazon Samples), and for that you receive a box of Gatorade nutrition samples. The page above shows five different items, including protein bars, chews and powders. You may receive a slightly different selection depending on what’s available at the warehouse.

Then, after this order ships, you will receive an email from Amazon informing you that a $8 credit has been automatically applied to your Amazon account (no coupon code is needed). You can spend this credit on 90+ eligible Gatorade nutrition products. These are mostly solids, not liquid Gatorade bottle. The spending happens automatically in the shopping cart as long as you have eligible products in there.

So assuming you can spend the $8 sample credit on products you like or want or need, then you’ll getting the samples for free in a roundabout way.

I’ve done multiple samples boxes and individual samples, they work like clockwork. It’s a pretty good way to try new items and stock up on your favorites. On rare occasion a product may qualify for multiple categories, so it may pull multiple sample credits (which means you pay even less out of pocket).

Select RX Bar flavors under $20

If you are a fan of RXbars (I am!) there are three flavors at moment of their 12-packs that are currently going under $20 at Amazon as a regular purchase (not a “Subscribe and Save”) as follows:

I am listing them in the order that I like them 🙂

  1. Chocolate Coconut
  2. Mint Chocolate
  3. Mixed Berry (I’m a bit surprised I don’t like it more)

Free shipping for these for Prime members or with an order of $25+. As of the time of writing there’s a limit of ten 12-packs per flavor per customer. Note however that their prices change early and often at Amazon, so it may be different by the time you read this post.

RxBar Sampler (six flavors) for $6 w/free S&H

Curious about RXbars but don’t want to commit to a big order or to a single flavor? If you haven’t made a purchase at their website yet, they have a promotion for NEW customers! You can buy a 6-Bar Sampler for $6 with free shipping. There’s no coupon needed, just add the sampler six-pack to your cart and proceed to checkout. You will receive six different flavors, including my all time favorite “Chocolate Sea Salt”.

These are simple ingredient bars, with the only “offensive” ingredient being natural flavors in some of them. The rest of “real food”, dates, almonds, egg whites, etc. All of them have dates (it’s the glue that keeps them together), so if you don’t like dates or you are allergic to dates, keep that in mind!

These typically go for $2+, so paying $1 per bar, and getting free shipping is a pretty good deal.

15% off site-wide at RXBar until 1/22/18

Good until January 22nd at 11:59pm, the RXBar website has a 15% off site-wide sale. The sale price is factored in automatically in the shopping cart, there’s no coupon code needed to enter. Additionally, you get free shipping with orders of $20+, in other words a 12-pack or more.

Subscriptions (similar to Amazon’s “Subscribe & Save”) are NOT eligible for the discount since they get their own discount.

After I got tired of the Kind Bar “Strong and Kind” (the spicy and protein-boosted bars), the RXbars are now my new favorites! I scoop them up whenever there’s a sale.

If you haven’t tried them before, the sell various flavors individually at Trader Joe for $2 each, so that’s a low risk way of trying them.

12pk RxBar Peanut Butter Chocolate for $18 [limit 4]

Rxbars, another deal is here! In addition to the previously mentioned Mixed Berries, Amazon also has a sale on the Peanut Butter Chocolate 12-pack for $18. No coupon needed, no Subscribe and Save needed, but this is currently restricted to Prime members. It comes out to $1.50 per bar, which is a pretty good price for these! Limit four 12-packs per customer at this sale price.

This is a nice mix of chocolate and peanut butter, “facilitated” by the underlying date flavor that dominates most of these bars. I was pleasantly surprised by the taste, and I’m typically not the #1 fan of all things peanuts 🙂

This is a relatively new flavor, thus the sale to encourage more people to give it a try.

12pk RXBar Mixed Berries for $15.30 after coupon

If you are a fan of the RXBars, grab your wallets and run to Amazon, where thanks to a 15% off clip-on coupon, you can get a 12-pack of RXBar Mixed Berries for $15.30 after the clip-on coupon. This is the normal purchase. The “Subscribe and Save” is about a dollar less.

Both the price of the 12-pack and the coupon are running separately from each other. For example, the price of the RXbars can go up and down. The discount will be a flat 15% off on the current price, not a fixed discount.

Note also that the coupon only works for items sold and shipped by Amazon actual. Marketplace sellers are not eligible for the 15% off coupon.

15% off Amazon coupon for RxBars

Amazon has a brand new 15% off digitally-clip green-colored coupon on select RXbar protein bar 12-packs. Better yet, along with the coupon, the Peanut Butter flavor is discounted to $22.44 as a normal purchase or $21.32 as a subscribe and save. These prices are _before_ the 15% off coupon is factored in. So that’s a pretty good value, dropping them under $20 for the 12-pack!

Use their search bar over there to check the prices of your other favorites. Remember, the clip-on coupon only works when Amazon actual is the seller, not when marketplace sellers are the sellers of record.

But wait, there’s more! If you’ve never purchased RXbars before from the official RxBar website (Chicago Bar Company), they have a new customer coupon code that gets you 12 bars for $20 with free shipping in the six flavor sampler pack.

50c off Kind Bar Sweet and Spicy coupons at Whole Foods B&M

Kind Bars have their famous fruit and nut bars, but after they became famous, they also launched a “Strong and Kind” line that is varying degrees of spicy, and have more protein and are bigger (wider) in size. This line now morphed into the “Sweet and Spicy” line-up.

For this line only (not the regular Kind bars), at Whole Foods brick and mortar stores, you will find a coupon next to them that gets you 50c off one bar. The bars go on sale on their own, and the coupon is stackable with the sale. The sale is per unit, so even if the display says “2 for $X”, you can buy one and get the sale price.

I haven’t tried buying two bars with two coupons yet, I only do one bar with one coupon 🙂

This is a picture of the coupon (on top of their flyer):

The coupon expiration is December 31st in 2017.

These bars are flying under the radar as far as the general population is concerned, so don’t worry, they won’t sell out 🙂

Refrigerated Perfect Bars arrive at Amazon!

The protein and nutrition bar market is very competitive. It’s a cacophony of choices at the supermarket aisles, with companies big and small, mass-market and health-food-crazed competing. So someone finally figured a way to make another nutritional bar BUT have the store shelf without competition…

… make it a REFRIGERATED BAR!
