"Hold the phone! Costco dropped the price of a popular muscle relaxant after we published these web pages!" (and sent complaint letters to the CEO)
This is rather remarkable to me personally because the last time (Spring, 2003) I complained about the price of this medication the pharmacist at Mountain View, California walked out to the counter to argue with me that $39 was the lowest price available. I disagreed with her, of course, because the previous pharmacist used to charge that much and when I would complain he promised not to overcharge again. But the next time he did, so I complained and he came out and gave me a cash refund receipt for almost $20. That is a true story! Yet two years later the next pharmacist was arguing at me in front of other customers that $39 was the lowest price. OK, so how come it suddenly was lowered? Did CEO Jim what's his name read the complaints I mailed to him and take action? Maybe, but they won't talk to me!
(below) Should Ms. Mars buy 90 for $21.94 at Drugstore.com or get the 100 for $22.49 at Costco Webpharmacy? Tough choice now!
