That specific one was the 2lb tub—maybe they had larger sizes in the other flavors... It was out of stock just a few days ago, too, so hopefully they finally restocked. If not, there’s a shop near the start of the industrial district—I passed it later on my way back—it’s called Mr. Olympia, I think, and they actually had the Dymatize Elite Whey right there in the window. Also, that sports nutrition spot that used to be over on Warsaw moved over to Fifth Avenue—not sure the exact block, maybe somewhere near the suburbs—but I think it's also on the right side, so you might want to check them out. Honestly, you'll probably have better luck finding it than I did 😁
By the way, just a bit of friendly advice for everyone out there—Dymatize Elite Whey in the Piña Colada flavor is a massive no-go 😬 I really messed up on this one because I was in a desperate rush to grab some protein and the local Gold's Gym only had that specific flavor left on the shelf.
There’s one inside the Metropolitan Opera—you know, right when you walk in toward that little crystal ballroom—and then there's another, smaller tobacco shop over on Broadway, just off to the right if you're heading from LAFC toward Spring Street.

I assume dealing with the IRS in the States involves a fair bit of paperwork and extra fees depending on how you set things up And honestly, with all these recent pushes toward banning smoking everywhere, I’ve been sitting on this little business idea... I just need a solid partner and, obviously, a lawyer to tell me if it's even legal under current regulations since things seem to be shifting so fast If anyone actually wants to get in on this, shoot me a private message 😁 It turns out vividmoose11 and I are actually thinking along the exact same lines 😁 (just finished reading about it too) Also, I was wondering—since hookah lounges seem to be holding their own over in places like Turkey, maybe there's an opening for someone to bring that kind of vibe to our neck of the woods?
Escobar at Fifth Avenue? Flavored tobacco hookahs for everyone😉
Back in Washington, D.C., someone tried this exact same thing about five years ago—this concept called the Churchill Cigar shop. It was honestly too well-designed for its own good; they had a dedicated humidor and such a massive selection of cigarillos and cigarettes that you usually couldn't find all under one roof. They managed to open two locations right in the heart of the city, yet somehow, just two years later, the whole thing folded in a major metro area like D.C. So, if you ask me, you might want to take a hard look at whether this could actually fly in your neck of the woods...
Regarding that cash discount—it didn't really apply if you were using a standard debit card or even a revolving credit line. It was strictly for cash or a basic Visa/Mastercard debit card where the funds pull directly from your checking account. As for installment plans, honestly, it’s entirely up to the individual shop—there isn't some universal rule. Some places might let you stretch it over maybe three months, while others—if they're feeling generous—might go as high as 24.
