Ignore (EOM)

If Mike is chasing girls, he had better start looking for two full time jobs.

Just got back from the eye doctor. Left eye worse and have to have lens changed for the first time in 4 years. Also have the beginning signs of cateracts in both eyes but doctor said it would be at least 10 years before they are a problem. Then came home and went to pick up my nerve pills and what a shock. Our little local pharmachy had to sell out as the Great State of Calif. was bankrupting him with more and more taxes and crap. Rite Aid bought it and my medicine went from $46 a month to $148. I told the guy to take it himself and came home and called one of the pharmacies about 12 miles from me and they said it would cost $80 for a refill there so I will drive up there. Don't tell me that Rite Aid is paying so much more for that nerve medicine than any other pharmacy. But I have known Bob for over 30 years and he was selling it to me at what it cost him. So I know that Rite Aid is not paying any more with the amounts they buy. I called Rite Aid back as they had said they would match any price I could find that was better than theirs, and they told me that I would have to go in each month and get a note from this other pharmacy that was what they would charge me. Sh**, if I have to drive up there for a note each month like a kid, then I will buy it there. Just venting, as this was a real shock and with no type of insurance, my medical bills are really eating me up. But I will survive in spite of Rite Aid.

Edit: Just called COSTCO and they will sell me my medicine at $48 dollars per refill. Called Rite Aid and they told me they won't meet COSTCOs prices as they don't consider them a pharmacy or some such BS. So now I feel better as the COSTCO store is right across the street from my Vets and about a 20 minute drive.
