Finally, a good excuse to get gangrene

You might not know this about me, but I'm obsessed with Target.

(I'll pause while you all absorb that shocking revelation.)

Another fun fact is that I have to take medication every day to stay alive, in addition to the other medications I take every day just 'cause. As a result, I frequent the pharmacy A LOT.

Yet, despite the terrible service and anti-social staff at my local grocery story pharmacy, I only recently made the connection that I could combine my love of Target with my prescription needs. And so it was with great glee that I switched my pharmacy to my local Super Target.

You might think I've been pleasantly surprised by the service, and you'd be wrong. The service is so freakafantastabulous that my quality of life has been improved tenfold.

First, the staff is nice. Like, I think they might actually like their jobs, rather than my other pharmacists who probably stole narcotics to make it through the day. They are fast, friendly and informed. And they're happy to fill the prescription while you're waiting. With a smile. I think it has something to do with the lighting.

Second, the bottles are cool. They have this cool inverted design and color rings you can request to help differentiate between your myriad of medicines. Miss Dub recently had an ear infection and got a liquid prescription, which has a small opening that you insert the syringe into so there's no mess or awkward measuring.

Third, I have no third, but I just really, really like Target. Although, I must confess that I said to my friend the other day, "I think I'm getting bored of Target." And it's not that I want a new lover or anything, it's just that I need a second refuge from the cold and snow when the Miss and I get bored. I mean, I think I've bought every piece of costume jewelry on their clearance rack by now.

But I digress.

The moral of this story is that you should change your pharmacy to Target. Don't have any prescriptions right now? Go lick some dirt or infect a small wound. It's worth it.



p.s. I just got a call from the pharmacy asking how Miss Dub is feeling. Bonus points!
