Costco

I don't have anything to blog and then I got this email from a friend and said to myself why not post it here. It's a long post so forgive me.

Did you ever wonder how much it costs a drug company for the active ingredient in prescription medications? Some people think it must cost a lot, since many drugs sell for more than $2.00 per tablet. We did a search of offshore chemical synthesizers that supply the active ingredients found in drugs approved by the FDA. As we have revealed in past issues of Life Extension a significant percentage of drugs sold in the United States contain active ingredients made in other countries. In our independent investigation of how much profit drug companies really make, we obtained the actual price of active ingredients used in some of the most popular drugs sold in America .

At the end of the report, one of the anchors asked Mr. Wilson whether or not there were any pharmacies that did not adhere to this practice, and he said that Costco consistently charged little over their cost for the generic drugs.

I went to the Costco site, where you can look up any drug, and get its online price. It says that the in-store prices are consistent with the online prices. I was appalled. Just to give you one example from my own experience I had to use the drug Compazine which helps prevent nausea in chemo patients.

I used the generic equivalent, which cost $54.99 for 60 pills at CVS. I checked the price at Costco, and I could have bought 100 pills for $19.89. For 145 of my pain pills, I paid $72.57. I could have got 150 at Costco for $28.08.

I would like to mention, that although Costco is a 'membership' type store, you do NOT have to be a member to buy prescriptions there as it is a federally regulated substance. You just tell them at the door that you wish to use the pharmacy, and they will let you in.

My Two gorgeous gifts I got.

I was very fortunate enough last week to get two free gifts from two wonderful sellers in Etsy!

Galla15 had a Treasure Hunt Giveaway of one of her Swarovski Rings in her shop.I was the lucky one to win the giveaway from Galla's shop, a gorgeous peridot ring.
Galla15 is selling really beautiful crystal rings,earrings, and stunning button necklaces. Also my husband bought me a matching earrings and he picked the Peridot because it's my birthstone.
I recommend Galla15 to everyone to own a piece or more of her jewelry.
Thank you Janet for your generosity :) I wish you the best!

My second gift I got from crochetedbycharlene. I made her 100th sales in her shop and she was offering a free gift to anyone make her 100 sales. The gift was a very soft and chic neckwarmer.

Charlene's shop has lot of cute stuffed animals, slippers, scarfs, small business cards cases, and so many neat and good quality finds. You have to go look for yourself.

I wish you the best in your shop with lot of sales!

Please make sure to go and visit their shops! Enjoy your time shopping there:)
