      Good for when you have the runs from Bunnings

      Why you suddenly need to go to the toilet when you’re in Bunnings (an actual news headline by a “journalist” on Australia’s most visited news website 🤦‍♂️)

      It’s what plants crave

  • I got these the other day at bunnings real good price forgot to post the deal thanks op .

  • Impressive 😀

    Do these actually do anything for hangovers or is it a placebo affect?

    • +3

      They do.

    • +2

      Mix with beer and they'll cancel each other out.

      Nah but seriously if you're dehydrated after a night drinking these work well to hydrate you faster

    • +1

      Yes, they do help to reduce or prevent hangovers but you need to drink them before bed. Won’t be as useful in the morning. Beroccas work for me as well

      • +1

        and before a session can help as well.

  • Orange and blackcurrant but no lemon lime.

    Excellent deal.

    I know this is a different product but Woolworths has Voost 10 x tablets for $6 on special at the moment. I use these to hydrate after my workout. I find the Voost are pretty good too.

      I don't consider $18 cheap, it's cheaper at Aldi everyday (20 pack of tablets about $6-7).

      You can also get a bigger tub of power from sports/supplements shops too which works out cheaper.
      Brands like Endura are expensive but plenty of other options. Cyclists and athletes use all the time.

      Electrolytes / hydrolytes all the same stuff, nothing new. No need to buy expensive supermarket/chemist brands.

  • Why is flavoured salt still so expensive? You can buy this for literally cents in Asian/African/LATM/ ME countries.

      Damn right

    I buy the Hydralyte 60 pack tablets which are exclusive from Chemist Warehouse for $24 (which is cheaper than the Hydralyte 40 packs everywhere else)

    They also double as giant fruit tingles…

    i buy electrolytes from bulk nutrients. they sell kg bags. i know its not hydralyte but, just putting it out there for cheap people <3

    • +1

      I prefer the bulk nutrients powder. I don't want added sweeteners or carbs.

  • +1

    Wouldn't it work out much cheaper to buy this? https://worksafegear.com.au/hydralyte-sports-powder-tub-900g… or are the extra ingredients usually unwanted?

    • Yeah I get the tubs, wayyyy cheaper. Also sometimes they go on special at Chemist warehouse.

      Amazon $36.49: https://www.amazon.com.au/Hydralyte-Sports-Electrolyte-Flavo…
      EDIT: DAMN - out of stock!

      It's really hard to compare apples and apples because all of these products have different quantities of the key ingredients. Having said that - the tubs look to be close to the best value based on sodium & potassium quantities.
      The Liquid IV 24pk sachet from Chemist Warehouse are arguably better value with 50% Shopback, but don't contain magnesium.
      I'm finding it hard to compare the bulk nutrients solution.

      …also worth a look at https://www.precisionhydration.com/au/en/ if you're doing hydration for sports.

      • Bulk nutrients have a nutrition panel tab on the product listing page.

  • any equivalents healthier with even more benefits with no negatives like Sugar Free Energy drinks

    • +1

      Bulk nutrients do an unflavoured one.

  • +3

    This product is poor value. You can get 1kg of electrolytes in powder form from Bulk Nutrients for $2 more than under 120g of this name brand.

    • +3

      This comes back to the comparing apples and apples I mentioned above (and I'm not preferring Hydralyte over Bulk Nutrients or vis-versa).

      The 1kg bag of Bulk Nutrients Electolyte Plus (https://www.bulknutrients.com.au/products/electrolyte-plus?s…) is $20. However 1 serve is 60g, so 16 serves per pack, $1.25 per serve.
      Hydralyte on this deal is 24 sachets for $18, so $0.75 per serve.

      On the comparable active ingredients Hydralyte claims per serve:
      - Sodium from Sodium Chloride: 210mg
      - Potassium from Potassium citrate: 160mg
      Bulk Nutrients claims:
      - Potassium: 179mg
      - Sodium: 126mg

      The Bulk Nutrients has a whole lot of other stuff listed (52g carbs, 26g sugar, 60mg magnesium, 60mg calcium). So for a regular joe like me and depending on use case, either could be considered better value. Can't just use the volume of product - and particularly applies to comparing tables, sachets, powers, and different brands.

        Good analysis. I actually use the BN Electrolyte blend. As you noted, I quoted the plus price above. For the blend they claim 76 serves from a $24 pack. This comes in at 32c a serve. No carbs or sweeteners.

        Listed equivalent potassium per serve is 120mg.
        Sodium is 60.
        So you pretty much need to double the serving size and spend 64c.

        I need the calcium and magnesium and want to avoid the glucose, so is a no brainer for me, but interesting to see the price per serve is so close.
