So, this may seem like done kind of pitch or me wanting you guys so i can get referral compensating or whatever, but it is not.

I don't have insurance as many of us do not. Getting your legit prescriptions filled isn't always cheap.. Even with generics.

So, over the past year or so I've been using this discount thingy and I've saved tonnnnnns on my medications. One particular medicine i get monthly is cash price $118. This brings the price down to $35. And that is just one example!

The thingy in question is goodrx. There are mobile apps and a website. The website location is http://www.goodrx.com

You don't even have to sign up. Just search for the prescription you need to buy, put in the dose, quantity, and your location. That's it! Your search will show you the prices you can get at all of your local pharmacies.

To use it is very easy, just print out the coupon or show them your phone when you drop off or pick up the prescription. It's easier on drop off so they don't have to reprint the label like they would if you do it on pickup.

They can mail you a card to use for all drugs if you request it but I've found you save a lot more if you use the individual drug coupons.

It's literally a life saver! I don't know how they do it. Maybe they have a hidden agenda and sell your information? I don't know. They claim they just have contracts with the drug makers. Not knowing how they do it may keep some of you from using it.. But i personally don't care!

So, there it is. /default_smile.png nothing in it for me, i just wanted to help and share some knowledge and contribute to this community.

Hope some of you can save tons of money!!

Search for your drug prices just for fun, you may be surprised!!

I haven't used this, but it's true that you can get huge discounts at the pharmacy. I just learned this in the last few months. I use Walmart pharmacy and ask if there are any coupons for whatever med I'm buying. Only once since then have I been waited on by a clerk that wouldn't take the time to find one for me. Once they find one for your med, they can link it to your account so you get that discount each time. I was paying $60+ for Hidrokodone and the coupon took it down to $14.95. I wish I had known about these things sooner!

I'll check this out too, always nice to save a buck.

 
Ah, glad you mentioned this... Walmart had been the only pharmacy not too take this goodrx coupon code. They said they have a preapproved list of accepted coupon companies or something to that affect.

From what i read though, they have to accept it. It drugs it right on the coupon. I just didn't want to press the issue. Perhaps it's just my local Wal-Mart without proper knowledged staff.

I've been to every other pharmacy around though and they all take it, even the mom and pops. It's always for the exact price goodrx says, too.

I get my v!kes from $118 to $35

Kl0nnies from $34 to $10

It saves me so much.

If it weren't for goodrx and Wal-Mart's 4 dollar program I wouldn't be able to take some of my medications.

 
I don't see an edit button on mobile. Sorry for typos and words that get autocorrected to different words. :)

 
It can depend on who waits on you and how busy they are. The only time they told me there was no coupon was at Christmas when they were swamped. If they don't take this, they should come up with something just as good. (If it's not Xmas)

 
I use this site all the time. It's amazing how much it drops the price. It sometimes means the difference between $250 and $20.

 
thanks Scottdot- this may come in handy sometime soon! Damn - looks like modafinil is STILL close to $9 pill in USA for the non insured script. This is why I love DBG - can you say "92% discount code"??? Lol.

 
I think it only discounts when you are buying brand meds.  I've never received discounts on generics with any discount card.

 
Usually generics don't offer coupons, it's similar to store brand groceries vs name brand. You're paying for a brand but the brand owner will cut people a deal for continued loyalty whilst those not in the know pay full price. 

It's a little scary to me that are medications and health come with coupons now though, my life isn't the same as my deodorant in my mind.

  1. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything you mean by
  2. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  3. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though
  4. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  5. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Wow, for real ? You renewed your DL and without you knowing or having to present documents in person, they did it online? It has the star on top right and says "Rea: ID" Mine says ' NOT A Real ID" . I never knew what a Real ID was and never bothered to ask - I think I somehow was under the impression that it was for either military / gov't workers who had to travel over seas. WRONG lol.
  7. B @ bigblueallda: I already have one and didn't even realize it. I renewed my ID online about 6 months ago and I just looked at it today and it is a Real ID.
  8. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 mine was duped , too. Not sure why or how my msg. duped. IMO that guy if serious and smart wouldn’t advertise with you
  9. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I wish I had it when I flew to Vegas in 2022. The TSA line for Real ID passengers was short. Now it’s probably going to be crazy .
  10. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Has everyone got their Real ID ? I think tomorrow’s the deadline yet just now an agent from AAA (I believe ) was on local news saying you can still get it past May 7.. Required for domestic flights.
  11. T @ Turbo259: sorry for the dupe message
  12. T @ Turbo259: Hey fam,, question for the masses, a vendor not from this forum lost a payment method and is blaming me for it, i have confirmed i havent done anything and even said i was willing to send the $ that was sent back to me to make good, they are being threatening a lil like its my fault to fix, any advice, dm me if easier, but curious as i did nothin wrong and kinda dont know what to do now, not lookin for issues from this person
