This raises an interesting point. This past Spring I had severe seasonal allergies. My cardiologist recommended Zyrtec. Zyrtec costs an arm and a leg for 30 tabs. Shortly after that I had an appointment with my primary care and told him about it, he is on a tear to bring drug prices down and he told me NEVER to buy brand name. Get onto Google and find the generic name for drug and buy that. In my case I could buy 365 tabs for $14.00 from Amazon.
To add insult to injury Zyrtec proved to be too powerful for me so I now have about 27 tabs of Zyrtec sitting in the closet!

Many of the generics and store brands are manufactured by the same pharmaceutical companies that manufacture the brand names. Walgreens isn't a pharmaceutical company. It doesn't actually manufacture ANY medicines at all. Every single Walgreens-labelled medicine is made by some other company. It's entirely possible that their aspirin IS Bayer, but with the Walgreens label. |

I just purchased some Claritin tablets at Walmart. The Claritin brand tablets were a dollar each. But, I bought the Walmart "Equate" brand for 13 cents each.

I like the well done funny ads and may watch them quite often. I usually tape whatever I am going to watch and just fast forward any type of ads unless it is clever and creative. And I would not even be able to tell you what the ad was about in many of these. Often it is unclear what they are selling.
Political ads are most of the time poorly done so if I have seen them once then that is enough. |

The ONLY time I actually watch a commercial on TV is during the Super Bowl. period. If watching LIVE TV, example golf, I tend to switch to another channel or such. But most times I DVR and watch a show later - FForwarding (4X) thru the commercials. I think the ONLY things I'd watch LIVE is another moon landing or the last hour of the World Series, Golf Final, Stanley Cup 7th game 3rd Period - as last night.
We have DirecTV and Netflix - watch TV almost always after 5PM only. Political ads... OMG! THE WORST!!! Will Never spend 1 second of my attention on them - HATE!

Mass advertising never really works on intelligent people.
Anyone looking to buy: An Alien wedge "AJ Reveals the Truth About Golf." Kallassy's Swing Magic trainer. A Medicus Dual-Hinge Driver. A Tight Lies fairway wood. A Bender Stick A Stand up Putter A HammerX driver Plus hundreds of 'Greater Distance,' 'Unsliceable' 'Straight as an Arrow' golf balls. |

2. You can take half a Zyrtec if a full one is too strong. That'd double your value and give you what you need. Half a zyrtec is actually the prescribed dose for cats with airborne allergies. Last edited by OrangeBlossomBaby; 06-13-2019 at 05:55 PM. |

If any overall group is more likely to watch TV show live, including commercials, it's seniors. You'd think advertisers would be dying to reach us instead of ignoring and ghettoizing us! |

But Dan got me $500,000,097 when somebody hit my 7 year old Jeep.
