I am trying to find a pharmacy that actually carries the products I want and is not forever out-of-stock. the products that I use include beauty products (mascara, lip gloss, makeup remover), health products (fiber, probiotics), hygiene products (deoderant, soap) etc. why is it that every pharmacy I try is out-of-stock for something? do most of you run around to a few diff stores each time you ned to do a pharmacy shopping? whats your secret? where do you shop?

I dont know where u live in brooklyn, but I happen to love going to Rite aid (the one on 60th and bay parkway has a parking lot).the circular comes out at the end of the week and you can really get great deals with sales and online rebates. they are also pretty well stocked.
hope this helps

I go to discount stores for as many things as I can, like Family Dollar, Ralph's, or Target. After that, if I have to pay full price, I shop someplace that either gives me free stuff or points, like Duane Reade or CVS.

Does that help you at all ?

I stock up on items like soap. whenever it's on sale, I buy large quantities. same with most personal hygiene items. I have a huge closet in my bathroom, so I have space for it. I rarely go to a pharmacy to buy this stuff unless it's on sale.

I don't buy beauty products often, either. I rarely wear makeup, so this isn't an issue for me. sometimes I see a funky color and buy it for the next time I plan to wear makeup, but I don't buy the stuff in general, and it wouldn't bother me if it was out of stock. if I need new mascara and they're out of stock, I'll take brown instead of black. who cares.

health products I buy at park pharmacy on quentin ave. it's small, the owners are really nice and helpful, and they deliver. if it's out of stock they'd order it for you and deliver when it comes if you don't want to pick it up. their prices are pretty normal, too.
