| Do you know of any 'cheap' online health food stores? My 14y.o. dd is having a terrible time with arthritis in her knees, one in particular is really flaring up. I had to take her to immediate care a few days ago as it was crippling & she had volleyball try-outs. The Doc said to give her glucosamine chondroitin & it should help repair her knee a lot. He also suggested a rheumatologist & possibly knee surgery in the future! She's also on prednisone for 5 days to match the shot she got, too & ultram for pain prn. I looked at Walgreens for the supplement & it ranged from about $25-$55 for a months supply. I'm not looking to order it from a third world country or anything, but just wondered if anyone knows of a cheaper place to get something like that. Thanks, and btw, Jazz made the freshman team!

| Try out Puritan's Pride, we use them for vitamins and they always have great deals: Discount Vitamins & Herbal Supplements from Puritan's Pride Also, if you aren't already a member of ebates.com, go sign up there (quick and free). When you are logged in there, just hit the down arrow on the drop down box on the left of the screen ("Select a Store"), and in the list of participating websites you will find Puritan's Pride. Just click on it, it will bring you to the Puritan's Pride website and you will get a 5% rebate back from ebates on top of their already good prices. Before you join Ebates or place an order from Puritan's Pride ..... If you want, I can send you an invite from ebates, and if you order from any of their participating websites (there are a couple hundred or more, and I think you have to order within a week of joining), we will each get $5 in our ebates account. You don't have to be invited to join, you can do it yourself and get no bonus, but an extra $5 is always nice. One point about glucosamine and condroitin, if you haven't already heard ... it does work well, but it takes at least a month before you can tell a difference. Look for good results, but be patient because it isn't immediate. Poor thing, 14 years old is young for arthritis. Here are the prices at Puritan's Pride: http://www.puritan.com/glucosamine-c...=0&sortOrder=2 Hope this helps.

| I never even thought about Perrigo. I've never actually been but always talk about it. The stuff is dirt cheap, other people have got me boxes of cold pills or tylenol for about $0.25 a box! Thanks, you lil ex-Michigander, you.
