Cheaper prescription prices

Just in case I'm not the last person to become aware of this...

I' have just started ordering my prescriptions through costco.com because they're by FAR the best prices for long term meds. If bought through my local small-town pharmacy,. my meds are over $400 a month. I actually quit taking meds for my allergies and arthritis because those brought it up to over $500 a month and those I can live without.

By ordering through costco my meds are less than $120 a month! I don't have to be a member (there are NONE near my home) to order prescriptions and shipping is free! I wish I'd have known about this YEARS ago!

I want to share this just in case anyone else might benefit by knowing.

Wow, I will have to compare prices, but since I work at a pharmacy I get a pretty good discount (which I haven't taken advantage of yet).

That's great that you are able to get them for so much cheaper! I definitely know how expensive prescriptions are...I sort our checks every morning and sometimes I'm just shocked at how much some of the payments are!
