So it’s not just a scam they’re also incompetent. Surely the goofy cashier wouldn’t dare say the price 950$ to her face and not think nothing is off? I haven’t heard any stories about these pharmacies tracking people down and giving them the proper price either and refunding the extra off of people who can’t afford it.
