i think i'd be a little wary of this... is costco an internet store or is it physically located? i've heard some horror stories about people getting 'fake' drugs that are packaged just like the real thing off of the internet.

how much does it cost to make a CD with music on it? less than a couple cents i bet. how much does it cost to buy the time in the recording studio and get in the sound mixers and the producers and pay for advertising...

drugs cost peanuts to make but they certainly don't cost peanuts to develop (talking teams of scientists here) or advertise. millions can be invested in some drug that never makes it past the FDA. thats millions lost. don't get me wrong, the drug companies profits are indeed looking a little too good. but i guess i'm wary...

i'm kinda wary that a person working at the US department of commerce would be willing to make this statement under the rubric of her position in the department of commerce. i wonder how the department of commerce feels about that? typically... companies / businesses / goverment institutions have a disclaimer on the bottom of their emails stating that 'the email is for the intended recipient only if you have received this email in error blah de blah blah this company takes no responsibility for the information contained herein and in no way endorses it blah de blah blah.

don't get me wrong, if prices vary that much depending on where you get your meds then it is important to shop around.

is that really the case, though?

here... i'm fairly sure drug prices are regulated / standardised so they are consistent. at least... i'm fairly sure they are...

its not just an ad for costco???
