I can't remember when it became normal or common to see the 500 count plastic jar of Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen or other common household drugs at the grocery store. 100 count Benadryl, 100 count Exlax and its brother the 100 count Imodium. Lets not forget the jug size bottles of cough syrup.

I’m thinking folks don’t trust their doctors anymore. People are self-medicating at an alltime high.

I had to show ID to buy some Ibuprofen the other day..... but that's ok but an ID to vote is raciest.

It's not just medicine. Everything's supersized or family sized whether you want it or not. Look at cereal, I don't need a bushel of cheerios but that's what is offered!

they are just trying to get everyone ready for the next lockdown that will keep us from being able to vote in person. Getting us to stockpile supplies.

Packaging cost money too, sometime more than the product. I buy in quantity whenever I can. I hate going shopping


The. There the opposite side of the issue, shrinkflation to appear the price is the same or similar but the product is much less in size or amount.

Hurts my feelings to go grocery shopping now.

Americans are aging and using more. I told my doctor last week, Ibuprofen is now my recreational drug of choice.

If Walmart can sell you 1 megapack they can take you out of the market for 1-2 years. All it takes is just to reach on over and put that $12.97 into your cart on the way to the toothpaste aisle.

I still remember i went to pick up meds for mom and they said 700 bucks. I said she cant afford that. Went to Kroger and lady said grab one of those Good Rx cards and i will ring it up using that. I did 17 bucks. So from 700 to 17

Start having back problems and them 500 count Ibuprofens are quite nice. It still takes me a while to use them all but they don't expire for a long time and they are always on hand. With the flu ripping through the house we have knocked a hole in the bottle the last two weeks! If not that it's Cold and flu meds, back and forth.

Yup

Example of tricolor bell pack. 1
Year and half ago $4.99, then $5.99. The other day was $7.99

How much more can that paycheck be stretched?

There was a time when people took to the woods and fields to find thesolution God provided for any health problems we might encounter. Natural healing using natural medication with little to no adverse effects. Then we humans decided to use the medicines God provided to get high, which he plainly said not to do. Then came modern medicine and we quit going to the woods and fields and started driving to town to see a man weve chose to handle Gods business. Now our govt says the natural medicines arent safe, theyll kill you, dont take them, take these instead. The new medicine is killing people right and left, getting others addicted, causing medical problems wore than the original. The doctors houses are getting bigger and bigger. Now theyre recommending people take drugs they know can hurt them. Very few people have the old knowlege. Were a generation away from the old way being gone for good. Sad state were in.

Yep. I hunted with some guys in the 70s who drank mushroom tea every morning.

I bet they saw some really cool psychedelic deer.

Theres a new over the counter mushroom drug out now, for energy, memory and enhanced brain function. Its not illegal now but sounds like it might be soon. The ads are comparing it to aderall

Sitting on our butt and eating processed food has killed more people than anything. We have to be responsible for ourselves.
