Ripped Off

I finally bought some more Tylenol today. The knockoff brand anyway. What kind of made me sad is that it cost only 1,38E for 20 caplets.

Why does that make me sad? Because in September, when I was suffering from debilitating stress migraines, I went to the store and picked up some headache medicine. After even specifying that I just wanted to cheap stuff that was still capable of doing the job, I walked out the door carrying just 20 caplets; they cost me 4,20E.

I had always kind of wondered if they had taken advantage of me and how bad my headache was. Now that I know you can buy it for way cheaper, my question becomes- did they take advantage of me? Or was that really the cheapest medicine they had there and I just happened to wander into the world's most expensive drug store?
