Didn't sleep too well, so I just decided to get up and at 'em around 4:30. Even being the night owl that I am, there's a certain charm to being "up before the world."

At any rate, I decided to get into the weeds of prescription drug prices, since come August, I'm going to have to start paying for them again. Started with a combination of Walmart's in house drug pricing, GoodRx discounts and my new insurance's quoted price for scrips. $53 a month! Mind you, Medicaid said I made $12 too much. $12 apparently justifies $53!?!

I will note that I couldn't tie GoodRx and my insurance together as I have neither card at the moment. The price could go down, but given the fact GoodRx provided no discounts worth a darn, I'm not optimistic.

Amazon, of all groups, might be riding in to save my skin! They have a mail order pharmacy that accepts insurance AND has special pricing for Prime Members if you end up paying out of pocket. Really good prices too! They also have a discount drug service (for lack of a better word) that let's me get three of my scrips for one $5 monthly charge.

Before this turns into a marketing email for Amazon, I'll say this: $29 a month is a much better amount than $53. And I haven't specifically tied my insurance policy in so I might be getting a little more off.

If it helps, I'll take it!

One big thing on my plate today is my labs. They will, hopefully, explain what's going on with my swollen feet and ankles.

The other big thing involves the electric company. Again. I have made two payments towards my balance, one being done a week ago. They have not updated their total and I would like to know why. I don't feel like losing my marbles because I lost power over a clerical error. Let's see how they respond.
