should I buy online or at the drugstore?

Hello,

Am I alone in not buying treatments online? Has anyone here bought treatments online? If so, which ones? I'm interested in anything from herbal remedies to coldpacks, massagers, etc. Would you be willing to buy online again?

I am an old fogy and have not learned much about the internet. I figured everything I need is in the pharmacy but maybe I am mistaken.

Thanks

Which ever is cheaper!

Example:
Your Pharmacy price $25
Online price $10

Now you would go for the online price right? Well, don't forget to tack on the shipping & handling charges & don't forget the taxes!

Now if you live in Canada you have nothing to worry about!

I have purchased a lot of things online, but sometimes its not worth it, it all depends on how quick you want something, and which one is cheaper!

Re: should I buy online or at the drugstore?

Not a fogy! It's a crap-shoot. If you pay by credit card,
info is now out there & out of state or country. Many
onlines have purchased Rx's by bulk, they bulked them
in bins like mix-by-pound. Air weakens Rx ea. time bin
is left open. My reputable Ins. Co. offers 100 pills for
flat $25. Script said take 1 a day, mfr. bottle said it
expired already! I called Nebraska where filled. Sounded
like a warehse in bckgrnd. They said pills are gd. for 6mo
past date & that's why they could sell so cheap. Local,
Rx is $85 but well worth my health. Once an rx was left
in mailbox w/ 110 day. Mailbx= 150. They had yellowed.
Again, wasted $. Gov't survey test = most pills were a
clearing-hse dose. (30% less potent) but wouldn't hurt
you. I make pharmacy, ink label w/ exp-date of bottle it
came from. I learned early on. I bot a computer online &
got wrong one. 60 day delay took my $ & they were out
of Bs. Scams hurt gd. Co's. Only buy reputable.
