Walgreen's busted again

As an add on to what you've written, the problem I've encountered at all of the major pharmacies is missing one or two pills from an Rx. I now count them in front of the pharmacist, as coming back later will get you no results. I've counted them in front of the main pharmacist and had them see personally that one or two is missing. That also usually corrects future incidents.

My mother in law counts her pills all the time and regularly finds shortages, it amazes me when you consider they are supposed to account for every pill, all I can guess is their books are 'fudged' quite well when they do inventory...

I ask to see the pharmacist "when they ask if I have any questions" and then open the bottle in front of him/her and do a count. Never been shorted an antibiotic, but other things always seem to be off by one or two. (not any more though since I've been doing the count practice lol.) If you think about it, they are accounting for every pill when they short you by one or two as there "master" count will be right, but the customers are getting the short end of the stick. I think they'd have more problems skimming from there non sold product as it's "allegedly" more regulated.
