I can attest to their thievery.

Got a script for a basic generic diabetes medication. I got it filled at Walgreens the first time. They charged me about 15 dollars for a 30 day supply.

I did some checking and found that Walmart had the same medication on their 4 dollar generics list. So the next time, I got it filled there. It was free with my insurance. Even pharmacies like Publix have that medication free without insurance as well.

The only difference was at Walgreens they physically had to count each pill and put it in their bottle while Walmart had their bottles prepackaged and ready to go with an internal seal like a package of tynenol.
