When I was paying for my 'scrips I had a 'season ticket'.
Yes, Mum had one of those until she reached pension age and got them free. Saved her quite a lot of money over the years.
Actually, I can't understand occasional (note that word - I'm not including people who have regular repeats, for whom the cost can be prohibitive without an annual ticket) meds users complaining at all. Generally speaking, the cost of the 'scrip is nothing to the cost of the drug.
Compared to the US system where you either pay for insurance or pay for all healthcare at point of use, it's a huge bargain.
I get repeats for my blood pressure drugs, but they give me two months supply at a time so it doesn't cost enough to be worth getting a season ticket. I'm jolly glad to get them though.
