| Well it seems that Walgreens is added to my places of not to shop/work at due to them firing an employee because he was carrying a gun and saved lives. It happened it Benton Harbor. I can't get a link to the article because the news page requires membership. You can google it though and find out some information about it. The guy saved some lives. |
| I think the idea behind these policies is they don't want employees risking their lives or customer's lives over a cashbox or stolen merchandise. In this case, the guy wasn't trying to be a hero. He was protecting his life. You'd think a dead employee would be worse press than an employee being canned for defending himself. |
"Hey Honey, let's go "shoe shopping" at Walgreens."

I've never shopped at Walgreens for the past decade. For prescriptions I just go to Meijer. I found out that the prices are pretty much all the same, plus your co-pays are fixed anyhow. It's not like a generic/brand name med at Wal-Mart is going to be different from the one at Meijer, Target, Walgreens, Rite-Aid, or K-Mart. |

I just found out that Meijers sometimes gives gift cards with a prescription refill. I got a $20.00 gift card last month and a $10.00 gift card this month. Good to know. Of course, being healthy also helps 
Hmmmm, 200 a month for insurance through the Guard.... and never using it, or go to the Doc at the RediMed maybe once a year, if that, and pay cash...... It's nice not having kids

It's nice not having kids It's good to have insurance. My kidney stone which I was in the ER for four hours it was a $4000 bill if I didn't have insurance. |

But now, with our new communist overlords, I can get insurance right before going to the ER
