How to use GoodRx to save a ton of money on prescriptions!
When searching for the prescription drug you need, the app will show the prices with their coupons applied at several different pharmacies. The pharmacies include those in the big ones like Walgreens and CVS, and even the ones in Walmart, Sam’s Club, Target, and more. If you can’t find an offer near you from one of the better know pharmacy options, they even offer coupons for most local third-party pharmacies.
This way you can compare the prices of the same prescription drug at several different stores. This is a nifty feature to save you as much money as possible. Other prescription savings apps, like Blink Health, unfortunately, do not have it, while other similar services like Sidecar Health Insurance or Sesame Care allow you to compare drug prices and the price for a doctor’s appointment
When you want to redeem the coupon you can simply save it on the app to the My Coupons section and show it to the pharmacist. You could also have the coupon texted to any phone number or emailed to any address.
The features on the app include refill reminders, price alerts on specific drugs, and savings and news notifications. Another nice little feature it happens to have is one similar to the GetUpside app, with its integration with Google maps for directions to the specific pharmacy for the coupon you want to redeem.
