insurance sucks

Why is it that even WITH insurance, the prescription I bought this evening was $50 freaking dollars????

All for allergies. Damn allergies! My doctor prescribed Zyrtec, and I was quite excited because my coworker's wife works for a doctor and can get me samples. All the samples I want, he tells me. So, yesterday I tell him that I've got one left, and will need a bunch. No problem...


Except he wasn't at work today!!! Meaning no stash for me. Bummed me out. So I had to get my prescription filled at Walgreens. $50 later, I ain't so happy!!!!

You know, I got something filled for allergies that wasn't "covered" on my insurance. Well, it technically is, but might as well not be and it cost me $50 too. If you ever run into that trouble again, just get the doctor to prescribe something different.
