Good points Abby. There are some situations where the independents are cheaper, only because they know they have to in order to survive. These folks diversify into diabetic supplies and home health items. Another source of money to be made is on generics (chain and independents) and toothpaste etc... The profit margin margin is much higher on generics and therefore are suggested frequently. The chains are famous for saying you saved "x" amount. In reality, the question to ask the pharmacist is "how much more did you make on this generic vs. brand", should be fun to watch his/her answer. Blessings,
