I hate Wal mart, but this will open a lot of doors for younger people.

I hate Wal mart, but this will open a lot of doors for younger people. I just hope that young people don't see this as a get out clause, and have sex without protection knowing they can get it so readily.

They have been selling it in every other pharmacy though. Wal-mart was the last to start selling it. They only sold it in Illinois and one other state because state laws foced them too. and i agree with angel very much so

I just hope that young people don't see this as a get out clause, and have sex without protection knowing they can get it so readily. I 100% agree. I don't think the morning after pill should be so easy to obtain because I think people will use it as a reason not to have to use protection. it MIGHT lower teen pregnancies but I think it will increase the spread of STD's

Wow, I didn't realize that pill was so readily available. I mean not just at Wal-Mart.

I have to admit though, I love Wal-Mart. :scream_cat:

Im a wal mart freak lol

Is this just in the states?

We don't have it in scotland.

Your lucky angel. Wal-Mart is the scum capital of the world. I hate it

Ok i think i kinda know what the answer is, but what is walmart?

Just a big big retail store.

**thats what i thought, thanks. **

Its more then that....it is an evil giant, a store that used to be "Buy American" but that policy has been gone for years now.they buy in mass and spread like fingers across the land and when they arive they are so much cheaper then anyone else that people start shopping there and soon all the choices you had are gone because they went out of business. they sell shitty products overall. I mean they sell name brands but clothes and stuff fall apart after they are washed, they only sell edited music and refuse to carry both the edited and non edited and simply label them.I favoid walmart when ever possible, it gets harder and harder to avoid them since most other choices are now gone.they branched into grocerys instead of just the usual crap.they refuse to give employees 40 hours so they can keep them as part time and avoid benifits so they enmploy a couple million people and it saves them money over offering bennys, foul, evil shit is what walmart is, and a retail store.does it show that I have a bit of a dramatic flare? I soetimes feel like a ass but I also laugh so hard reading alot of what I write that its al worth it.now if I could get my keyboard to stop adding the letter f at random moments I would be happy, I am far to lazy this moment to go turn on spell checker to find and fix them all so if I missed some while typing this in, I appologize.

I really dont think it makes that much of a difference that Wal Mart sells it. Basically every other pharmacy already carries it, and its not like its on the shelf next to pads and tampons. You still need a prescription for it.

Oh and I just bought a few shirts off the $3 rack at Walmart :grin:

Can I just say that wal mart canada is a good store and has helped bring down unemployment rates in alot of areas

brought it down here as well but not at a decent rate of pay and not wiht health insurance for most of its employees and its still teh same walmart there and here its the same owner the same policy applies.
How do you feel about the fact that women are not to obtain upper managment positions if its at all possible to promote a man first?
fthere is many law suits over that vary fact right now.
unemployment sucks and walmart helped lower the rates but they did so at a price. Maybe its better there sine you dont need health insurance and maybe that measly 9 bucks an hour goes further in Canada, it doesnt buy shit here and is not a livable wage.

Ya no heath insurance sucks but here we have free good health care So I guess in the USA wal mart is a monster but here it dosent really get bad press and all thatI dunno what they pay I guess I could ask one of my friends

I guess thats good.. I don't see the big deal though.. does it just mean the price will be cheaper?

It means it will be available to a wider range of people. most US and Canadian places have a wal-mart

Couldnt someone just go to shoppers drug mart?

we kinda have walmart in the uk, well not really but i know theyve taken over ASDA.

as for the morning after pill, although it is concerning, overall i'm for having it more readily available. i know here in the uk you can buy it in a pharmacy, and thats reasurring in the end. on the other hand if you look at some of the posts on this board its kinda worrying how people will think this is the answer to contraception so im not sure
