High Noon: Got My Flu Shot

Last fall, I waited until after my first bout with sickness to get my flu shot. I didn’t get any bugs that knocked me down afterward (although I felt like I came close twice). This year, I decided to get my flu shot as early as possible. So I swung by the Shopko Pharmacy while shopping in the Coeur d’Alene store — $29.95. Later, I saw the same shots for $25 at Safeway (plus 10% discount of groceries). My wife said I coulda gotten the same shot for $20 at Costco. Woulda cost a $25 co-pay at my doc’s office. Last year, I got one for $25 at Fred Meyer. I could go to the downtown Spokane office to get a cheap one. But then there’s the gas.

Question: Where do you get your flu shot? And how much do you pay?
