Get free shipping on all orders of energy gum.
A lot has happened in the last two years. My Coach and I launched a product in an industry we had no prior experience. With the help of some very talented people, we figured out how to market it and partnered with some amazing retail partners. Run Gum has sponsored athletes and started our Ambassador program. We as a company have been truly inspired by an amazing community of fans and loyal customers.
We have also learned a lot along the way from both expected and unexpected growing pains. One of those areas is how we price Run Gum so that it is fair and affordable for everyone who wants to purchase it.
Which is why, beginning today, the price for a 12-pack of our energy gum will change.
But please allow me to start with this... Run Gum now offers FREE SHIPPING on all orders placed at RunGum.com!!!
Ok, so maybe three exclamation points is overdoing it. Especially when you notice that the cost for a 12-pack is now slightly higher. BUT, before my fellow Run Gum addicts fill up my Twitter feed, please allow me to explain.
For two years, customers have been able to purchase our performance enhancing chewing gum at RunGum.com and Amazon.com. At both sites, the advertised price for a 12-pack of Run Gum was $18. You went to checkout, giddy at the thought of boosting your performance one chew at a time, but then you were hit with the shipping and handling costs. These added costs frequently brought the total to nearly $23.
Rather than blindside our customers with shipping and handling charges, we have decided to bake it all into the cake. Run Gum is now available in three great flavors at the cost of $22.49 for a box of 12 packs and shipping is always free. So really - not much of a price change at all.

FAQ About Pricing Change (November 2016)
Why did the price of Run Gum change?
It really hasn’t changed once you add in shipping and handling. We are now just listing it at a price that will be the same across all our sales channels. No matter if you buy it from us online or one of our amazing retailers. We have learned a lot about this industry and fee wrapping the cost of Run Gum and the shipping and handling into one will be clearer for everyone.
I am a current Run Gum Club member, will my price change?
No. If you are currently a member of the Run Gum Club and subscribe to our monthly program, you will be locked into your current pricing as long as you stay active. If for some reason you cancel and then come back, you will be buying at the new rate.
