so yeah i guess im sticking with shakes

consider adding

ice cream
peanut butter
oats
olive oil
fruit
or whatever else to keep it from getting old or to increase the caloric value of your shake.

are you using a blender to make your shakes or just stirring/putting it in a shaker. whenever i was bulking in high school i found it best to put the powder and dry ingredients in the blender first then the milk or whatever and it blended out all of the chunks everytime

Spend the $5 and get a blender bottle- the bottles with the whisk balls in them. Makes mixing shakes on the go a lot easier, especially if you add some carb supplement (which I assume you are since you want to gain weight) that usually requires some heavy mixing.

Bars are handy snacks, but unless you are making them yourself, every shelf bar I've seen is a waste of money and more empty calories than necessary.
