My Rite-Aid prescriptions were transferred to a CVS 63 miles away, per text message.

Of course.

I had already asked the Doc to transfer my Rx to the nearest CVS 17 miles away, 12 as the crow flies, and picked up my meds last week.

It always comes from a fridge. I do not trust any carrier to keep it cool.

Definitely not the insurance company's (they're already making enough money, and they're mostly evil), or Amazon (ditto, but entirely evil) unless I couldn't find a way around it.

And they do accept some insurance plans.

Plus they deliver through USPS.

Delivered to my door within a couple days. Saves so much time, especially since we live in the country.
