Why?????


Dear Rite Aid,



Why do you insist on being so wasteful? I sent my sister-in-law to your wonderful store to pickup my birth control pills and as usual instead of just placing the desired medication you add not 1, not 2, but 3, yes 3, reusuable dispensers. My sister-in-law not being in the birth control pill user category did not know to decline the dispensers.


Why? Why in the age of reusuable bags and impending environmental doom do you decide to continually give out new dispensers with every refill? Seriously the first one is all that I will likely ever need. No one should require a new dispenser with every refill let alone 3 at one pickup. I can't imagine that I am the only customer who receives countless plastic dispensers with every refill. Why? Why? Besides being wasteful it has to be awfully financially imprudent. Haven't you heard the news? We are in the middle of a recession. Please save some cash, the environment, and my voice that is used to warn everyone I ever send to pick up a prescription. Just stop giving me the dispenser. I'll let you know if I need a new one. Really I will.


Does this bother anyone else?


Never-narrow minded,


Alegna
