I can't tell you how many times I passed by these containers in the supermarket. Frankly, I never thought I'd have a need to mix my own Gatorade. I go to my gym several times a week + always bring a pre-mixed Gatorade with me. However, I enjoy them so much that I like having them at home, too. My concern is that the pre-mixed ones aren't nearly as cost effective. What to do? I use the powdered Gatorade to mix up a gallon jug to have at the ready, when I'm home!
