but I am noticing it in grocery store pharmacies, stand alone pharmacies and chain drug stores. At least here in Metro Denver.....

I recently recall Walgreens as having been taken over by a Hedge Fund.....a certain kiss of death, being a Rape and Run Philosophy just like that movie a while back, saying Greed is Good, and buying a company, dismantling it, selling off the pieces for more than the purchase price.......basically what has happened to Sears, and numerous other notable American Corporations and Industries........

Maybe it is what you mentioned, being fearful of Good Rx and Amazon coming in and dominating the business.

A Home Depot employee told me that Amazon is studying and experimenting with yet another whole new business.......home building supplies..... Which would hammer the living shit out of Home Depot and Lowes..... A contractor can call in an order for the next days materials, lumber and supplies they will need for that day, and it would be delivered to the Jobsite first thing, early the next morning.............That would be a dream come true for the contractor, and a total nightmare for Home Depot, Lowes, etc.....

I can only imagine that you are reading & analyzing & writing countless hours each day to bring us all the key information that you do. Thank you again BRDS, the information you offer to all of us is priceless.......
Please, Please Please, keep it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And know, that we all sincerely appreciate ALL you are contributing, day after day......
