I thought I'd revisit this topic -- tomorrow marks 14 months for me here.

Saturday, I went to the pharmacy. I told the clerk the prescriptions I needed filled, and was very specific, because I have two different strengths of one med and only needed the one.

The total was a good bit less than I thought it should be, so I looked in the bag before leaving the store, and yep -- they had given me the wrong strength of Effexor, even though I had specified which one I needed.

When I finally got what it was that I needed, I was told that they wouldn't charge me for the difference, since it had been their mistake, and I got 2 extra punches on my "frequent customer" card (with 6, you get $10 off the next time you go in).

This so would NOT happen at Walgreens.

And although their hours suck, they'll deliver if I need them to, and both pharmacists and most of the techs know me by name.

So, there ya go -- score one for small towns. But I'll have to bump you off if you tell anybody I found something about them that I like.
