Where can I buy ensure shakes like the ones given to the elderly in nursing homes? |
The ones that look like the little milk cartons Go to any supermarket or cvs/walgreens. don't expect the milk cartons though, they may only be for the nurs.homes! All of the mart stores sell the stuff .... off brand Walmart ensure knock-off isnt bad for the price. If you want the name brand ensure go to Sams Club ... or look on line. Here's their store locator. Costco has the best price. An entire case of about 24-36 bottles can be about $15. Check your local grocery store's health food section. They should have cans of Ensure in that department. The other place to check is a special diet food section, and maybe back by the pharmacy. You could also check the section where they sell adult diaper products. It could be there. GNC Ensure isn't only for old people btw...any drug store is sure to have it. It's everywhere just go to your favorite store. contact your local pharmacist...they should be able to order you any flavour you want Everywhere. Grocery stores, discount stores, pharmacies... they're widely available. |
