I just had 2 of these in my cart while I was waiting for a $17 one to get here so I can taste test it... Now the Prime deal is the same deal that it was before without Prime.
This sucks! I was waiting for a good deal and this is what they come up with?
Just this year I got deals in the 45~50% range. Got 10 lbs for like $60 and 5 labs for like $25.
Come on Amazon, you can do better than this.
Not the slickest of deals, in my opinion. Hopefully something better comes in the next 2 months, before I run out of protein.
80 oz ≈ 5 lbs
96 oz ≈ 6 lbs

Still, 67 servings (vanilla) for $49, and 63 (chocolate) for $48 isnt TERRIBLE; you could do worse.
But Optimum when it goes on sale is still a better deal for the 5.64lb 80 serving bag at $50; same vanilla or chocolate. And extra 13/17 servings for basically the same price (within $1-2).
I tried the vanilla Dymatize casein (to mix with whey to cook with) and I VASTLY prefer their vanilla flavor to the Optimum, though. So that could be a factor if a few cents more a serving is worth it to you. Everyone's factors could be different.

Look at the label and multiply number of servings times grams of protein to get total protein in the container.
Take the price 45 and divide by that.
This is 1,575 grams of protein for 45 dollars (rounded down 46 cents) on subscribe and save.
45 / 1575 = 0.0285 = 2.85 cents per gram of protein
Most whey protein powders on Amazon will be 3.5 - 6 cents per gram. Anything under 3 cents is currently a great deal.
You're an idiot if you are focusing on pounds of product.
