With Giant Eagle's new ONE-PER-DAY policy on taking competitor Rx coupons, this is my new ranking for BEST PLACES and WORST PLACES to transfer prescriptions and use competitor coupons.

BEST:
(1) CVS
(2) Giant Eagle
(3) Kmart

(1) Kroger

DO NOT TAKE AT ALL:
-- Walgreen's
-- Wal-Mart
-- Target

For details, see Rx4Less.net/matrix. (It has not yet been updated to show Giant Eagle's latest policy regarding competitor coupons. They change their policy so often, I like to wait a few weeks to make sure they don't change it again ;-)

Giant Eagle now taking competitor coupons more often

Giant Eagle (at least some pharmacies in central Ohio) are again taking competitor Rx coupons more often than just ONE PER SIX MONTHS.

Their current limit is ONE PER DAY on competitor coupons. They will even match the Kroger "coupon-less" Rx offer to give $25 gift card for a prescription transferred. Kroger has been advertising this offer in Columbus area for past few weeks via TV ads and newspaper ads -- including one on top right of The Columbus Dispatch.
