Is it just Baltimore or is it the whole country, or something in between
that, 10 or 20 years ago, had a big increase in the number of
drugstores?

All of a sudden they were building them everywhere.Â*Â* Tearing down other
stores to build branches of national chains.

Did this happen where you are?

How many years ago?

Why?Â* Does anyone know why?

It's not likely there were suddently so many more people getting medical
care.

Â*Â*Â*Â* Baby boomers.

...who ought to be smart enough to shop at the big boxes most of the
time rather than pay drug store chains' jacked up prices...


My insurance co-pay is the same wherever I get a prescription filled.

I think he is talking about the whole store full of overpriced stuff
they make you walk past to get that prescription. The drug counter is
always in the back of the store, just like milk at the grocery store.


Well, duh. I thought everybody knew that.
