[00:15] DaemonFC It says that pharmacies have to post a sign informing you that you can ask what the retail price of a prescription drug is.

Further, nobody in their right mind pays retail. Because we have insurance and PBM programs that negotiate the prices down. [00:15] DaemonFC The retail price is there as an opening point in negotiations. [00:18] DaemonFC MinceR, The "price" of my antibiotics that I took last week for the bronchitis was $36.99 for 6 pills, generic, retail, at CVS. I paid $3.70 with my insurance. Had I not had insurance, I would have had the doctor call them into Jewel Osco and then used a GoodRX coupon for $9.37. [00:18] DaemonFC So there's quite a spread. [00:19] DaemonFC Technically, if you wanted the worst deal or just didn't know any better, you could walk into Walgreens and pay $40. [00:19] DaemonFC Jewel and Walgreens are next door. [00:19] DaemonFC So you could go over there and pay 4 times as much for your prescription. [00:19] DaemonFC Mandy needed antibiotic eardrops at one point. [00:20] DaemonFC Walgreens, cash, was $186. Walgreens with a coupon was $118. Jewel with a coupon was $20. [00:20] DaemonFC I had them transfer the prescription to Jewel.

[06:08] DaemonFC But the reason they have extra theaters is because Hollywood isn't releasing very many good movies anymore, and what they do release goes to streaming in a month (which is cheaper than 1 ticket on most days). [06:09] DaemonFC There's just no good reason to get in your car and drive over there and risk COVID and have a bunch of people smoking pot in the theater and pay big bucks. [06:10] DaemonFC Back when movies came out on VHS tape, it used to be embargoed for like 4-6 months on purpose because people would go to the theater now and then buy the tape later. [06:10] DaemonFC The long wait let the movie trickle down. [06:11] DaemonFC They had physical reels of tape at the movies, and those weren't cheap to make. So rather than trash it after the theaters were done, they'd send it off to "dollar theaters". [06:11] DaemonFC Mom and I used to go to the dollar theaters all the time on her days off because my dad didn't leave her with very much money out of her paycheck. [06:11] DaemonFC But if you went to the dollar theater, it was $1 to get in. [06:12] DaemonFC The math still worked back then, because minimum wage was a little over $4 an hour, so they could minimally staff and maintain the theater, and it was often the same person working tickets and concessions when it wasn't very busy.
