I just got this email (attached below) from a friend in SoCal. I live kinda far (Chicago) so I cant specifically help until they get it out here. He tells me its great, but could some of you SoCal folks try it out and let me know how it is?
Thanks,

Hey Jim,
It’s been a long road, but after almost five years, SGN Nutrition has a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to turn our dream into reality. The great news is that our newest product, EcoDrink Vitamin and Mineral, will be going into 49 Costco stores (list of locations attached and will be placed in the pharmacy section) on March 18, 2009 to determine how well it will be received by the public. Although I have the utmost confidence in our product, I am understandably concerned about the struggling economy and its effect on sales. The nail-biting news is that we have only ONE SHOT at making EcoDrink successful in Costco, so I am boldly asking for your help as a friend. Other than sending me a million dollars, the best way you can help is to buy a box for yourself the next time you're in Costco. Or maybe send this e-mail to health-conscious friends and ask them to try a box? Then they can tell their friends who can tell their friends and... well... you get the picture. Word-of-mouth advertising would be invaluable to us at this time, so I sure would appreciate you taking a few extra moments to press "FORWARD." Small step for you...one big step for SGN Nutrition.
It seems all we hear about these days is unscrupulous characters heading off in their private jets to live in luxury off their ill-gotten gains. I can assure you I don't have a private jet or a big fat bonus sitting in an off-shore account, but I do have a really fine product that has required a lot of time, money and expertise to create. At a time when it's hard to know where to place your trust, I would bet on the small-business owner who works with integrity, honesty and diligence. Often I feel like a little fish swimming in a pond full of sharks, but I still believe in what I do. If you want to give the "little guy" a running start, I sure would appreciate it!
Thanks for listening and sharing this e-mail with your friends and family,

I just bought a box on Saturday at the Marina Del Rey Costco. They had people sampling the product. It tasted really good for how healthy it is. Cool bottle too

Got home and found the package waiting for me. This stuff is AWESOME! The wife loves it, the kids love it, we just ordered some more. And yes, very cool bottle.

I'm sure it will do very well in SoCal.

Someone left a packet on the counter in the 24 Hour Fitness Gym that I go to so I took it home after getting the O.K. from the clerk there, and the next day I tried it. What I felt was a good little burst of energy from it, so I looked it up on line and got to your page here. I will look for it at my local Costco.

this is a disclaimer that has to be placed on nutritional products. You will notice it on Centrum, One a Day, etc. The FDA doesnt require preapproval of nutritional products. EcoDrink is simply vitamins and minerals.

I just bought mine on Sunday, around midnight, I decide to try it out, a few hours later, I go to bed, I wake up and am now breaking out with allergic reactions and cannot stop itching and scratching.

Can SOMEONE PLEASE tell me what I might be allergic to?

Also, if it already has Stevia in it, then why have they included Sucralose too?

I take vitamins EVERY day and this has never happened to me... only just now.

Bought a box at San Marcos Costco on Saturday after being provided a sample from the nice person demonstrating this great tasting product. It tastes so good that it's hard to believe it's zero calories and loaded with vitimins, minerals and nutrients. I will support your pruduct and purchase it regularly!

We just picked a couple of boxes from Costco in San Dimas Ca and really like the product but do not care much for the bottle. I like to "guzzle" my drink and perfer the wide open bottles like the ones on Gaterade vs sucking it of this bottle.

3/20/1020 - Has this item been evaluated as an alternative to daily vitamin pills for the elderly? And, are individual packets available from Costco - without purchasing the entire kit with a new bottle every 30 days??

Me and my sister bought 3 boxes
I drink one every time I work out
It really is great stuff!
Tastes great and it really quenches that thirst and makes me feel hydrated
I'll probably buy more if costco still stocks them

I tried the sampler at Costco on Sunday. Loved the taste and loved the zero carbs, sugar, ect. Though it is lower in quantity than my intake of Vitamin supplements, Its taste great is worth a try to stay hydrated out here in Arizona., So I bought a box... 20.00 for 30 envelopes. Worth the try.

Houston TX...
I just brought my first EcoDrink Kit w/bottle. Actually I passed up the demo in the store and my 11 yr old son took the sample....he found me in the store pulled me over there and told me he love the favor and it was better for him than Vitamin water and he wanted this instead of the vitamin water I had in the basket w/coupon. So, you are a thumbs up with 11yr boys. He plays football and baseball, the demo young man was very good with him and explained to him how to mix and the best favors to mix for a different taste. Thanks you will make it ...keep the faith...Drinking one now at my desk.

I really like it as does my wife, wouldn't mind a lower price and we don't use the bottles because its very difficult to squeeze a sufficient amount of water out of it and many of them don't seal. Also, it goes down very fast! Just don't let it get warm, the taste gets a little funky. It's also a bit difficult since the packet makes a liter and the included bottle is half that.....we just use liter nalgene bottles.

My sister bought me the kit at Costco yesterday. I made my first drink, put it into the refrigerator to chill, it fell about two feet from shelf, and bottle cracked with a hole. Need better bottles.

AH HA! That explains why it tasted good in the store, and when I put a packet in my bottle this morning and filled it up with water, it was WAAAYYYYY too sweet! I had no idea that the packet didn't go in the included bottle. So I have to mix it up separately ahead of time in a different bottle? I wish I had understood how much of this I had to drink in a day just to get my daily vitamin...

Daily Horoscope for May 22

Aries

Keep a firm grip on your money today to avoid anyone else getting their mitts on it. If you're out in public you should keep your wallet or bag clamped to your side, just in case it goes walkabout. You should also make sure you check any bills and invoices that you're given, in case they contain a mistake. It's a day when errors and deceptions are highly likely.
