Aldi has their version of "Liquid IV" for a fraction of the price of the name brand stuff.

It's like $2.37 for a 6 pack. It's pretty much the same as all the other hydration sticks, some salt and some flavoring. Liquid IV is almost $2/stick at Walmart and other stores now. I also think the lemon lime flavor beats the taste of most of what liquid IV has to offer. Also, skip the zero sugar variety, if you actually need the stuff you want the carbs. I guess I need a few more characters.....
