My DH is on a few meds and has shopped prices, asking for pricing with and without insurance. He also gets discount cards or coupons online at goodrx.com.
He found a terrific pharmacist at Target who works with him and price matches.
We've also used GoodRX to search for low prices. I was able to find local stores with low prices and didn't need the coupons. That was in 2012.
For 2014 I've saved my list at GoodRX and now it looks like I'll need the coupons. How do these work at places like Walmart and Target? Do you present the coupon once and it's good for a 90 day Rx and then also good on the refills? Not a problem to print a coupon for a refill every 3 months.
I'm willing to jump through a few hoops to get good prices on Rxs, even going outside of our insurance plan. It won't count toward our deductible if I go outside the plan but it's usually worth the price difference.
In 2012 the best price I found for Losartan was at Costco.com. I was happy that I could do it all online and I didn't need a Costco membership to do it. The closest Costco is about 35 miles away.
We are lucky so far on our Rxs. Mine are low cost generics on the lists at local pharmacies for 90 days/$10 or less. DH has one that's a little more expensive and another one that is about $80/90 days. Those are the ones that I look for on GoodRx.com
