I do feel pretty bad about stuff like that, but then again with my income… something something no ethical consumption under capitalism

It’s lose-lose. Unless you’re CW I guess…

Same business model as Wal-Mart really. Priceline is still kind of okay for scripts, but at least 10-20% more than CW.
I hate CW with a burning passion of a thousand suns, but given the cost of living right now, I’ll take savings where I can.

Same. I feel physically ill (no pun intended) giving these sleazebags money, but a trip for my prescriptions is a $100+ exercise just at CW, it’d damn near bankrupt me going elsewhere :(

An acquaintance worked there a few years ago, and management (at the behest of the owners I’m guessing) were absolute fuckers.
She quit just before the Christmas holidays and her boss would text her almost daily after, asking then demanding she come back to work.
Got reported for harassment but AFAIK manager still works there.
