In some areas, there are some available for free, Giant Food is running it for 3 months, and each retailer’s plan is different; however, if you need other medications, you may want to do some price checking as they could be a bit higher.  The generics are limited, so if they are not found on the free listings here, use the links to the $4.00 medications on this site, and the link to “Needy Meds”, which are always posted here in the resource area of the blog.  BD 

In this case, they’re free — at least for now. Giant Food is giving away generic antibiotics from Jan. 2 to March 21, including amoxicillin, penicillin and ciprofloxacin. Details are here. The program will also be available at Giant’s sister chain, Stop & Shop.image

Since Wal-Mart started its four-dollar program a couple of years ago, cheap generics have become almost a necessity to bring in customers.

“We have a lot more competition these days,” Robin Michel, EVP and general manager at Giant, told the Baltimore Business Journal. “And there’s no way you can be more competitive than free.”
