Bodybuilders' Bargain Buys and Offers

15 eggs - just the egg whites - 120g protein?

doesn't add up? egg white ~3g protein per egg

Sorry my mistake. I've calcualted it on the whole egg including the yoke.

You are looking at about 4g of protein per egg white, average egg as around 7.5g including yoke but slightly more in the white.

So 15 egg whites is only 60g so not so much a bargain source of protein.

2 Tesco Venison Burgers £1 (227g) less than half price.

Agreed - 1.8kg of tuna x 6 for about 20 quid isn't bad either! Also cashews and almonds by the kg for about a fiver, love the place! 


One other thing if you can't get to bookers in tesco if you go to the 'make your own salad' bit they have plain tuna, and you can fit a lot into one of the large trays which are £2.50 - not a bad option on-the-go!

Yes forgot all about the Tuna... because I have gone off Tuna lol

Bought a BIG tub of prawns in brine for about £8 too
and 12 Tines Of John west Pink salmon - 413g - £20

Boookers in cambridge is quite small, compared to others apparently, but still big enough for me to over spend :)

Tell me about it - I now have 1kg cashews, 1kg almonds and around £50 worth of spices - but I will never have to buy small things of spices for the next year lol

nice,  lol... I was going to buy loads of nuts too! but I had already spoent £90 so couldnt justify it, however it is nearly payday :)

you dont need to be a buisiness to go to bookers,

i used to go there all the time and say the place i work was having a BBQ
and fill in a info form with made up details and they let you in !

^ Really when was that?

My parents had to give their business address and proof as far as I remember to even set up an account

EDIT
on their site

To trade at Booker Wholesale you must be a business or charity. Membership is free. Visit your local Booker branch and pass the completed card to the receptionist who will register you.

Not sure if it varies by branch but this is certainly NOT the case at the Slough branch - was a real ballache getting a card when we started up as they need a passport photocopy and 2 utility bills at the business address. 


On a plus note they had a special on the frozen chicken breasts yesterday - 5kg for under £20 which is around 20-25 breasts 

The place I have been using westingourmet.co.uk is doing special offers on bodybuilding packs -  particularly protein ones which I found to be pretty affordable:

Gourmet protein pack: 5kg australian 100 day rump (22 8oz steaks), 5kg chicken breast fillets (at least 22 chicken fillets) - £99.50

10kg chicken protein pack: 2 x 5kg packs of chicken fillets (44)- £54.25

20kg chicken protein pack: 4 X 5kg packs of chicken fillets (88) - £99

I have been buying the 5kg pack mainly and the meat is pretty decent

Not the cheapest protein source i know, just a change from the usual sources, Tescos have Youngs King Prawns 250g (17g protein per 100g) for £3 instead of £6.

Whole earth peanut butters half price at tesco's £1.80 for the 454g jars

Morrisons:

1/3 off fresh salmon
3 tins john west salmon (130g) for £3
Sirloin steak is on special I think £7 / kilo
Princess tuna £2.99 for 4 tins

With you on the salmon, parents picked plenty up for me last night. Lovely, good deal!

Tesco has 4 pack of Princes Tuna for £2.84 at the moment, cheaper than their own brand

Just picked up 10kg of precooked steamed chicken breasts for £35.99 from Bookers.
Offer runs till mid September, great for people who "dont have time"!!

This looks good, great find
