TO PILL OR NOT TO PILL
NOW THAT I PAY FOR MEDS, I SHOP AROUND. I AM INVESTIGATING BUYING FROM CANADA, AND AM AWAITING A REVIEW WITH MY NEW DOCTORS LAST WEEK. MAYBE I CAN GET OFF SOME OF THE PILLS. IN THE MEANTIME, I HAD BEEN GETTING THEM FROM COSTCO. I WAS RUNNING LOW AND CALLED A LOCAL PHARMACY. I WAS QUOTED $210.00 FOR 3 PRESCRIPTIONS. THIS WAS ABOUT WHAT I WAS PAYING AND SINCE COSTCO WAS 35 MILES AWAY NEAR THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE, I DECIDED TO GO AHEAD . THE PRICE OF GAS KINDA BALANCED THINGS OUT.
THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO PICK UP THE PILLS AND IT WAS $262.57. I TOLD THE PHARMACIST I WAS QUOTED $210. HE EXPLAINED THAT THE GIRL I SPOKE TO WAS ONLY TEMPORARY AND MISQUOTED THE PRICES. I TOLD HIM I WAS TEMPORARY AND LEFT WITHOUT THE PILLS. ANYHOW I WOUND UP AT THE LOCAL WALMART PAYING $213.00
BETWEEN THE PRICE OF MEDS AND THE COST OF GAS, I'M REREADING MY BOOK ON A 101 WAYS TO USE GROUND BEEF, 50 WONDERFUL EGG MEALS, AND SHARING CAT FOOD DELICACIES WITH YOUR PET. AH, THE GOLDEN YEARS!
