COSTLY MEDICINE

I had a buzzing in my ears, and the doctor gave me a prescription for a nasal spray.  When the pharmacist told me it would cost $135, I was one flabbergasted frugalista!  This was not a medicine that the doctor guaranteed would cure me.  It was more a case of ‘Try this.  It might help.”  I didn’t find that reassuring enough to make a three-figure investment. 

The sympathetic pharmacist confided that he orders his mother’s medications from Canada from Jan Drugs.
