Getting out of the meth-precursor business

September 1st the new Nebraska law regulating sales of pseudoephedrine goes into effect. I'm not going to look it up right now but the gist is that any OTC drugs containing pseudoephedrine have to be either kept behind the counter or in a locked case. Also, the quantities a person can buy are limited.

The Osco across the street has three grocery carts near the entrance of the store full of all their house brand decongestants. I don't know if Osco is going to stop making the stuff or not. They might just be changing their packaging but the prices are such that it looks to me like they just don't want to mess with it anymore.

They limit you to two items per transaction so I've been visiting everyday to stock up. Their store brand Claritin-D® 24 hour tablets are $1.99 for 10. That's a freaking steal. Also, the store brand Nyquil® is $1.50 per bottle. I'm going to be set on allergy and cold meds for quite awhile.
