The Real-World Impact
Now, I know what you're thinking - "This sounds too good to be true!" But let me tell you a little story. My aunt Marge (name changed to protect the savings-savvy) was prescribed a new medication last year. At the pharmacy, she was quoted over $200 for a month's supply. Ouch! But then she whipped out her phone, pulled up GoodRx, and found a coupon that brought the price down to $45. That's a saving of $155! Needless to say, Aunt Marge is now GoodRx's biggest fan.
