Boycott Fylde road Pharmacy Ripping the elderly off

[Helen1470]

Fylde road have decided to increase its Paracetamol from 69p to £3.50

Some old chap in his 80s couldnt afford to buy them and became upset at the counter... When I informed them that it was disgusting that they had increased their prices at these difficult times! I was told its "supply and demand"

Please look at their recent Google reviews

Spread the word please

This is s time we should all be helping! and not looking to make more money from others

They sold the missus an out of date item a couple of weeks ago, we noticed in the car and took it straight back and they refunded instantly without batting an eye, they knew it was past It's 'Use by date.'

Is anyone able to upload a picture preferably of the shop and owner ?

This sort of behaviour needs clamping down on straight away.

Of course there is no chance it is profiteering by the wholesale supplier

........ anyway, why spoil a good lynch party, let the hounds loose and burn them with flaming pitchforks ......

Do you have any information that wholesalers have raised their prices ?

Or do you think profiteering out of the sick is ok.

There's a problem about naming
and shaming. There was a superb
gentleman at Lane ends years ago
who plaster bounced cheques on the
back of his wagon that was parked
outside spar. Got told he couldnt
do it after about 4 years.
Can't remember his name.

It is part of a chain so they are probably the wholesaler as well

Fylde Rd Pharmacy is our local pharmacy, our prescriptions go there direct from our GPs, in their defense today had to go in to collect prescribed medication for my wife, decided to test this "profiteering", my wife uses paracetamol, the standard uncoated tablets are of no use to her, always uses coated tabs or the more expensive capsules.

Bought capsules today, sure paid £3.00, but this for a box of branded capsules containing 32 capsules, unlike the usual generic supermarket packs of 16 tablets, remember this is a chemist not a supermarket, the capsules were double the quantity and branded, please compare like with like.

I would doubt very much that, that particular pack has been on sale for 69p anywhere, certainly not the cheapest, but not the most expensive by a good way.

You make a good point the OP might not have been telling the whole story.

Blatent profiterring shold be made illegal. Whether applies here i don't know personally, but it is a good idea
