While Gil and I tend to live a holistic lifestyle, there may be times when a stop by a pharmacy is needed. Pharmacies have always been somewhat of a mystery to me, an almost clinical corner that I’ve only stopped by when I had to. I used to think that all that mattered was whether or not they could “deliver the goods.” But in truth, there’s so much more to a pharmacy than just the pharmacy.
Convenience
In the past, I’ve had to make special trips to run to the pharmacy, then figure out what to do while I waited for the prescription to be filled. Target Pharmacy is conveniently located in (wait for it) … Target! That means I can drop off a prescription and then peruse the Target aisles pick-up a few items on my shopping list while I wait. Even better, I can get a text message when a prescription is ready for pick-up so I can time my checkout perfectly.
Generic Brands
I spend when I need to and save when I can. Generic prescriptions are a one way to get what you need at a much (often much, much) more affordable price. Especially when you’re self-employed and covering your own insurance costs, the availability and price of generic prescriptions is important. Target Pharmacy offers $4 generic prescriptions so you can get brand-name equivalent prescriptions at a not-so-brand-name price. You can see what generic prescriptions are available at target.com/pharmacy.
Easy Rewards
Honestly, there are so many other things I’d rather spend money on than prescriptions. But when you do have to fulfill a prescription, at least Target offers Target Pharmacy Rewards. After 5 prescription fills, you earn 5% off an entire day of shopping online or in-store, so you can save money on the things you want to buy (instead of have to buy).
Even if you’ve already been fulfilling your prescriptions at another pharmacy, you can still transfer to Target Pharmacy. To get started, you can “Flip the Script” in-store, online or on your mobile device. Flip the Script online and get a coupon to save 5% off a day of shopping. April is the perfect time to fill your scripts at Target because of Double Credit Days. During Double Credit Days, for every fill, you’ll earn twice the rewards!
