Being Sick in America, SAME pill is 24¢, $2.90 or $9.27 depending on who Price Gouges Prescriptions
Hello my Preparedness friends. I have so much going on that my channel has taken a back seat. Today, however, I experienced something absolutely appalling. Maybe you've been aware of this for a long time. I knew shopping around for medicine was a thing, but the price range I found on one pill, 100 mg doxycycline hyclate tablet, was crazy. My prescription for my dog was for 120 pills.
The price quote from Walmart at $348 was the highest of those I called, but looking online, Rite Aid actually was charging $1113.00 for the same 120 tablets. The vet was charging $200. Most online places were charging 48¢ per pill. I have to give a shout out to california pet pharmacy dot com at 24¢ per, health warehouse dot com at 28¢ and pet care rx dot com at 28¢ AFTER a % off code AND rakuten (ebates) deals. The online places also charged shipping, so that needs taken into consideration.
You can see my research, sloppy as it is, on the paper shown in the video. Sam's Club Plus quoted me $40 and I would have gone there but the prescription wasn't available until the next day. So, I called Good Rx to ask why I couldn't use them on a pet medicine. Good Rx got it for me for $32.81 at Walmart and it was available immediately. Normally, Good Rx can also be used at Sam's Club, but this particular medicine is not available at SC with Good Rx. I don't know if that is by Good Rx choice or Sam's Club, or one of the hundreds of networks that Good Rx uses.
Good Rx is free to use, and if you have a lot of prescription needs, you can save even more if you you use their pay membership. Then have a 30 day free trial, a single as well as a family plan, and ship your medicine to you free of charge.
It's a shame our health care industry is just that - a profit driven industry. As my husband reminded me after this - The love of money is the root of all evil.

Fencing in Fruit Trees after they became Dinner for the Deer, Prepping more free food

What Happened When the Hoop House Got Too Hot, This was definitely a learning experience.

I was so happy to get a hoophouse. I'm now not so sure it was the best way to go. Having to heat it in the winter and cool it in the summer is both time consuming and expensive. Shade cloth will probably help the summer heat issue, and I hope it does. Having to remove plants so that they don't suffer heat damage is a pain.

    This fruit is edible, whether raw or cooked. It may not have a distinctive flavor, but it is completely edible and has many beneficial properties. The latex-like sap it contains is excellent for the skin - it leaves it feeling soft and residue-free. It's also beneficial for the hair.

    These are fried noodles and the fat in them turns rancid in a year or two, depending on the temp where you’re storing them. Pasta, which is dried noodles, will stay good for decades if packaged properly, so storing Ramens in Mylar are a waste of time, just buy the amount you will use in a year or so and rotate them, the seasoning packet definitely won't last in Mylar due to what is in them, thinking this will last 30 years just because it's in Mylar, I'm sorry to say is a bit crazy & uninformative on your part, also I see many people below here believing what your telling them & your 100% WRONG! research things better before you make a video, I have emailed the Ramen Noodle manufacturers, & discussed this in detail with them. Some foods like Flour will still be good after 15 years in Mylar, Rice for 30, others just a few years, research, research is the key, so please don't make these videos unless you know what your doing, too many stupid people listen to you.

  • @doubled473
    @doubled473 6 місяців тому

    These won’t last 30 years, even in the Mylar bags and stored in a cool place. The reason is because the noodles were NOT freeze dried during production. They were dehydrated. They will however, last about 5 years after the good by date if stored the way you’re doing it. After that they will begin to smell and taste awful.

    • @PennsylvaniaPrepper
      @PennsylvaniaPrepper 6 місяців тому

      I agree. The ones not stored in mylar have already been cooked and fed to the animals. This was mostly meant for 'share' food, it's now mostly the cheap decoy food. When I need space and have time, I'll cook the noodles for the birds and reuse the mylar.

      You don't NEED the monthly plan. You can save more if you have a lot of prescriptions by paying a monthly fee. You can get the discount just by asking the cashier at the pharmacy to check the Good Rx price. If they say they don't have it or don't offer it, call Good Rx and find a place that does. The cashier at Walmart was familiar with the program, but didn't know it could be used for animals.
