I did not find the coupons but I came across a story from the New York Post about a man who claims to have had an embarrassing side effect from drinking the Boost energy drink. :rolleyes: http://www.nypost.com/seven/0606200..._dareh_gregorian_and_douglas_montero.htm My son drank Boost and never mentioned anything like this happening to him.

Joined: Sep 2002 Posts: 642 | Five years out from treatment, I still drink approximately 3 to 4 bottles of Boost a day, because I actually like the stuff and it is an easy to swallow snack. I keep it in my desk at work and in my golf bag. My wife buys it by the case at Sam's.....but I have never experienced anything like the guy in the article. If it worked like that, my wife would buy me even more of the stuff!
