Coupons!
- I have recently started using coupons and have found that I can save a TON of money on over the counter medications. I save my coupons and stock up when the items are on sale. Many stores will accept a manufacturer's coupon and a store coupon on the same item. Many drug stores also offer instant rebates or money off of your next purchase, so buying medications with these types of programs can be quite inexpensive. Just check with your local grocery store or drugstore to see what their coupon policy is. You'll be amazed at how much you can save when you combine coupons with sales and incentive programs - many times you can get them for free! It's a great way to stock up so you have medications on hand when you do get sick.
