Walmart!

Walmart began selling nearly 200 prescription drugs for only $4.00 each for a month's supply!!! They began this in Tampa, Fl only for now, but expect to spread the plan throughout FL soon, and then the nation. Stocks for drug companies such as pfizer dropped drastically (one $3.67 per share) at the news.

I'm not happy with Walmart...but I have to hand it to them for this, if the drugs are pure... what a great thing they are doing for us, making the drug companies actually COMPETE!!!! I hope it works for good.

KEWL!!!! - maybe I need to take my Rx out of CVS (not happy with them) and change it over to Wal-mart?

<font color="red"> Sky,

I heard that on the news as well and I am hoping that because Wal-Mart is such a large omnipresence, it will force the drug companies to become more competative. Something like this, could change the cost of our co-pays, reduce insurance premiums for drug plans . . . . .

I think the effect, if successful, will sweep its way into facets of our life that we don't realize. Conceivable, it could also help with State Taxes. I know our state has pharmacy plans to help senior citizens and perhaps in the future, maybe that money could be filtered into other supportive devices.

This could be huge. I don't know what Wal-Marts motivation is, but hopefully, it will create a pure intent, beneficial for the people.

Thanks for bringing this subject out.

Sky, check out the list of drugs for $4. It is a very limited list and doesn't include most psych meds.

walmart generics It is pretty much of a waste of time. Try buying from Canada instead.
