Money Saving Idea - Health

Get a free pharmacy discount card. A few health-care organizations (not to be confused with your insurance plan) have negotiated discounts that are available to anyone. Download the card from the internet, take it to a participating pharmacy, and get a price break on both brand-name and generic drugs. For example, YourRxCard (866-561-1926; yourrxcard.com) cut the price of a vial of insulin by $9. Another card to try is FamilyWize (800-222-2818; familywize.org). Discounts vary, so check to see what you'll save on your specific medication.
