Internet Drug Coupons just launched the "Pre-release Beta Version 9.0" of its site, which is a sort of trading post for drug coupons. Got migraines and are taking Maxalt? Save $50 here, the site suggests.
The site tests the notion that people on scrips will shop for drug deals the same way they shop for groceries -- by taking advantage of special offers.
I reckon this site will take off. Here's why: There's a $250 deductible on my insurance which also only pays 90% of certain costs. Doesn't sound too unreasonable, right? But this means that when you're scheduled for an MRI visit -- as I was recently -- your out of pocket costs can reach $580 on a $2600 bill even though the hospital doing the MRI charges only about $450 for patients who pay cash. In other words, on my insurance it's sometimes cheaper to be "uninsured."
So, naturally, I balked before sticking my head in the magnet and am now currently shopping around the NYC area for an MRI center with more reasonable rates.
I'm guessing I'm not the only one, which is why my gut says this site will be successful.
RE: coupon Site...
It will be interesting to see how the coupons work. I would suspect the up take will be good.
We have launched an incentives based pre-marketing campaign for new immune product and are getting great response from consumers in the market place.
With the pre-brand data we are receiving believe the web may help cure boardroom marketing decisions, corporate biases and make way for customer intelligence prior to launching a product.
Below is the link for a current pilot program we are running now.

I visited the site. It was surprisingly good.
I discovered that 2 drugs I regularly take offer coupons (Lamictal and Cymbalta).
Thanks, Jim!

e-commerce is getting more and more popular. this creates the need of having good tools to help shoppers make right decisions while buying online. reizit.com is a place where shoppers can recommend or bury a product, share experience and discuss shopping deals.

Be confident which you have by no means had any regrets within your lifestyle which only lasts for any handful of decades. Chuckle or cry as you like, and it is meaningless to oppress your self.

People deserve very good life time and business loans or just bank loan would make it better. Just because people's freedom is grounded on money state.
