NWBR, question about your TMI post

Posted by kelly (aka kelly) Dec 22 '08, 14:58

Just curious - did you need a prescription for Plan B?

Patton Oswalt has a funny skit about needing the morning after pill, and the pharmacy tells him they can't sell it without a prescription, but he can head across the street to Costco and they'll sell it over the counter.

"THE FUCKING COSTCO! A YEAR'S SUPPLY OF MACARONI AND CHEESE, A 50-GALLON JUG OF CRAN-GRAPE JUICE, OR A PILL THAT WILL KILL A BABY!"

Responses:

Nope. It's pharmacy descretion about whether they keep it behind the counter or on the shelf (I've yet to see it on the shelf anywhere*)... - Name Withheld By Request Dec 22, 15:04 6

- That's...quite a difference in price. -- nm - kelly Dec 22, 15:06 2
  - I know. My g/f was shocked. I joked it was because her other pharmacy was at the university where she worked. - Name Withheld By Request Dec 22, 15:08 1
    - Plus, the savings on it "paid" for 25% of my membership for the year. *chuckling* -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Dec 22, 15:10
I know you didn't ask me. But I just ran into this 2 months ago with an OOOPSI, NO prescription needed. Cost 37 bucks -- nm - Redmond home from work, bad weather Dec 22, 14:59 2
- At Costco? Heh. -- nm - kelly Dec 22, 15:00 1
  - Nope, Walgreens. Costco is funny -- nm - Redmond home from work, bad weather Dec 22, 15:01
