Too pithy a title? Heehee.

I spent the weekend (including Friday and today) trying to get my Prozac prescription refilled. Kaiser won't let you refill a prescription the same day you ask for the refill (haven't a clue why, seems *stupid*), so I went to the Kaiser 3 times with no luck. In the process, I found out my health insurance had lapsed (oh, such a long story there, but I'll be able to restore it soon hopefully). With the lapsed insurance, the cost for one month of generic Prozac (aka Fluoxetine) skyrocketed from $13/month, to $100/month. Needless to say, I was a bit shocked.

After some finagling (and standing in line behind a rather smelly old guy for too long), I got my prescription transferred to Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart had my prescription ready by the time I got there (instead of 4 freaking days), and guess what? It cost me $12. For a 3 month supply.

Say what you may about big-box stores, but at least Wal-Mart is fucking the whole healthcare racket. They have a policy on offering $4 prescriptions on generic drugs that will more than likely bring down the cost of pharmaceuticals world-wide.
