Insert Snappy Name Here – duly noted. I am of mainly Euro-and East Asian descent and long ago a a member of middle school chorus, we had to do a song highlighting cultures from around the world. The Chinese verse went, ‘Ching-goo-pao, Ching-goo pao, Mu Goo Pai Pan’. I was upset. Not only would there be a lawsuit on the name Chinga-binga whang wang, these days there would be a lawsuit of some sort ethinic discrimination.
snappy,
it’s a great program, and they have over 300 meds on their list.
M4L,
the program offers generics which have the same active ingredient as the trade names.
they have the economy of scale to their advantage
and of course pharmacy is not their only business
so they can afford to have a smaller profit margin.
I guess they figure if they can get the shoppers in monthly to refill their prescriptions, they have an automatic base of customers buying shoes and shirts and movies at the same time. Smart.
“doesnt that drive the cost of food up for people who dont have kids? ”
no – most restaurants eat the cost assuming it will bring in more business from parents.
Snaps – yes!
i wouldnt be shocked if they are really just giving you placebo sugar pills.

grrr that article about how kids get to eat free at restaurants? how is that fair? doesnt that drive the cost of food up for people who dont have kids? the same thing with them constantly going under the turnstile in the subway. at what age should that not be allowed? i see entire broods go under the turnstile and i swear half of have probably already pubertated!!!

M4L, I too had been wondering how they do it.
