Wild Goose Chase for AchievOne in Maine

So I got an AchievONe protein drink (think Starbucks iced coffee) in a sample pack I had ordered.  To die for!  No seriously, would never have even thought it was a protein drink.  So I have been obsessed with finding some to keep on hand.  They do have a little caffeine in it, so obviously not for right away while healing, but they are advertised in OH magazine and I pointed them out to Corrine, so I think on occasion they would be fine.  There are girls on here that drink them every single morning. So I swear like once a week I search around the internet looking for a place with a shipping deal.  These are (at cheapest) $28 for a case of 12 (9ox) and the shipping is like $12 on top of that.  So a buck a bottle to ship.  I refuse.  I have had no luck, contacted the mnfr who sent me to their distributor to find a retail location in Maine. So I got 3 names and numbers that were a reasonable drive (I kow paying gas is like shipping, but if I already am in the area---or stock up it would be okay).  ONe place was in Scarborough, one in Augusta and one in Pittsfield.  So I call them all to see how much they are selling them for and how many they have in stock etc.  Okay----so none of the stores had ever heard of the drinks.  Which is weird because the distributor said they recently placed an order (maybe this girl was confused or looking at a different product). So one nice lady at Louie's Natural Market PLace in Scarborough had me give her the distributors number and contact info.  She is going to call and find out about the product etc and get back to me.  Soooo nice of her to look into stocking it for me----If they get it I would recommend giving it a try! Anyone else tried them?  Found them with free shipping--or very low shipping?  Most are excluded from the promos of free shipping over a certain amount.

Tanya~ I've been trying to find them to try!!  I LOVE coffee and have been drinking way to much so if I could find a substitute WITH PROTEIN as these have I would do just about anything.  **My husband works in Kennebunkport and I work in Lewiston.  I would be willing to have him pick them up and I could deliver them to you...saves gas.  Can you let me know when they come in to this place???  Thank you so much.

I will definitely let you know!  She is supposed to call me back in a few hours and let me know how it goes.  I have a friend that lived in scarborough and recently moved to Limington.  We will be heading down that way soon for a visit (we have other friends in Portland too and make it down there to shop oir whatever once every 2 months or so).  So I can always pick stuff up too for people.  Assuming she gets some.  A lady at Monica's Natural in Pittsfield told me to "have the distributor give her some info" and she would check into it...but the one in scarborough sounds more promising. Have you tried one yet??  OMG is all I can say if you haven't.  I have had the mocha java...but the cappuccino gets rave reviews too.

I haven't been able to locate them to try them.  Where did you get yours?  You said a sample package?  I tried the Aciev website but something is wrong with my server and I can't get to the order page.  I can't wait to try one!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got a sample protein pack from bariatric eating and it was in there. On a separate note----how the heck do I get my ticker to show up.  I have tried copying all three codes offered.

Hi Tanya, Copy the actual ticker itself NOT the code.  Right click on the ticker picture and select copy.  Go to where you want the ticker, right click again and select paste.  That should work!
