If you've seen one GNC, you've seen 'em all, right? Not so...
I worked for GNC about 8-10 yrs ago and I can tell you they are definitely not all created equal. That's why I give this one 5-stars. I'm gonna skip the things that are common to ALL GNCs like the "Gold Card" or the "BOGO" deals. This is about what makes or breaks THIS GNC.
Last I was there it was run by Will. I got to know him pretty well and his work ethic is astounding. He has incredible attention to detail and is sincerely concerned that each customer find exactly what they are looking for, or gets introduced to whatever will precisely meet their needs. You can tell he recognizes you as a person and wants to really help you.
The store is very neat and has, to my eye, always been well-stocked with all the majorly sought after items. If, for example, you're looking for a specific type of health bar, chances are you're gonna find it here and in good supply. Natural cosmetics and beauty supplies are abundant and there's always some neat gadgets kickin' around that help support and maintain health like back massagers, etc.
The other nice thing about this GNC is that it's right next to route 128 which makes it easily accessible for many miles. You don't have to park and then walk deep into a mall -- the door is like 7-8 feet from the parking lot. There's a GameStop, BlockBusters and Package Delivery in the same bldg, too.
In fact, there's a big plaza there with a CVS, Panera, Sporting Goods and grocery shopping so if you have to get something at a GNC, you'll be able to get other errands done in one stop. read more
