Whatever season you are reading this article, you have decided to gain mass. This means you need to increase your calorie intake to achieve a surplus. Having to eat more food might sound like a good idea in theory, but for many people it means things can get quite expensive.

Luckily, we’ve got three simple, budget-friendly shaker ideas on hand that, in addition to providing delicious calories in addition to high-quality protein and carbs, won’t break the bank (special thought for college students reading this).

In fact, we calculated the price per serving and all of these shakers, in addition to being inexpensive, will give you at least 489 calories (in fact, our banana and peanut butter shaker will give you no less than 653 calories per shaker) We don’t think you’ll be able to beat our price/calorie ratio by buying anything else at the supermarket.

Not to mention, they’re quicker and easier to fit into your day than any other serving of chicken and rice.
