>We Show Our Full Support For Walgreens

This post brought to you by Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.
I know there so many customers have a personal relationship with their Walgreens pharmacist; Walgreens unveiled a national effort to make the transition smooth. Walgreens is offering a special discount on an annual membership to its prescription savings club. During January an individual can join for $5 or a family for $10. Members receive savings on more than 8,000 brand name and all generic medications. Regular membership is $20 for an individual and $35 for a family. I’m hoping that Walgreens and Express Scripts can fix this problem? Why is Express Scripts acting like they own the whole wide world? Perhaps they want more customers to use their Express Scripts’ mail order pharmacy instead of the local pharmacy. Why get rid of Walgreens? Walgreens has a 90 day prescription refill policy which appears to be in direct competition with Express Scripts mail order pharmacy. Will this be the end of local pharmacies the way we saw local bookstores driven from brick and mortar stores? Let’s hope not. I’m one of the regular customers of Walgreen because their Prescription Savings Club at Walgreens. I save some extra bucks. To all Walgreens customer you can follow Walgreens on Twitter or like Walgreens on Facebook. However, Walgreens completed a proprietary survey of 823 executives and manager who are key decision makers for pharmacy benefit decisions and found that 82 percent of employers would NOT exclude Walgreens for less than a 5 percent savings. What is wrong with the Express Scripts? Not happy about the Express Scripts!
