Are the chews on sale on the BA web site? Is there a code?? Thanks!

Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't, I give myself reasons why I can.

No code. You know where you click to select your flavor? One of the choices that will pop up is "buy 2 get one free."

I have tried both. I absolutely love, love,love the calcet creamy bites! They are a "treat" to look forward to everyday. The BA chews are also good. The chocolate ones taste like a tootsie roll and the lemon and raspberry ones taste like starburst. I have not tried the caramel ones. However, keep in mind that the BA chews are only 250 mg instead of 500 mg so you have to take 6 a day instead of 3. They are good enough to eat 6 but price wise, you would go through the bag a lot quicker. I need to try the caramel ones though. They sound good and I love caramel.

I usually only need one dose of calcium during the day because I use ENS for my multi and it already has 500 mg calcium in it. I do that twice a day. I've been thinking about switching to a multi that I swallow, though, because I've been slacking on the ENS lately. I just get busy and don't wanna bother with it. I also use Upcal D for my calcium sometimes. It just helps me make sure I get all my vitamins in if some of them are yummy at least sometimes.

Creamy Bites win hands down for me! The BA chews are thinner and not as "fluffy" for lack of a better word... more like a starburst in texture, but grainy. I don't care for the grainy texture, but warming them in your hands for am minute or so seems to decrease it a bit. I get them periodically just becasue theya re cheaper thn the Creamy Bites. I have not tried the caramel ones.

The last time I ordered the BA ones, I called them rather than ordering online and they let me mix the chocolate and lemon flavors.

How in 2 1/2 years did I never hear about calcet creamy bites. What a goober I am. I've tried everything else.
I like the chocolate BA chews. I ordered 3 yesterday. I didn't love the caramel ones but they were okay when I chewed a chocolate and a caramel together. My friend loved them so I pawned them off on her
I didn't love the lemon ones and I've never tried the raspberry ones.
I usually do 1/2 chews and 1/2 wafers or pills. Calcium pills are sometimes iffy for me and don't go down well.
There are too many sugar alcohols to take a full dose of BA chews!
Next time I will order the calcet.

Thanks!

The Calcets are just delicious. I've been keeping my chocolate ones in the freezer and they taste like a frozen candy bar. The lemon ones are on my dining room table where they get a little warm in the sun. They taste like lemon cake.

Did you ever talk to celebrate about adding new flavors? I know we talked about it in another thread awhile back.
