Notes: Somehow $9.12 is missing, I have no clue what happened to it. Overall, I don’t think it was too bad this week, it could have been worse. We were able to save just over 100 bucks, so that’s awesome.

I didn’t like the fact that they charged me the same price for 6 Percocet as they do for 12. What’s up with that? Possibly a minimum charge for them filling it—guess it doesn’t matter. Hopefully next check will go better, maybe I should focus on dining out less.
