Head Tale

Good thing the pandemic’s over or else I’d worry about this shortage of children’s medicine!

(Funny story – we’re out of kids’ meds at home too and Sasha’s been sick a lot lately so Shea asked the pharmacist and managed to snag a mini-bottle of kids’ Tylenol.  Then we got home and didn’t see it after unloading our groceries.  Shea looked at the bill and didn’t see it on there either.  “Was someone so brazen to grab it out of our cart when we weren’t looking?” we both wondered.  Woke up this morning and Shea realised we had one place we hadn’t looked – a bag full of Xmas gifts that was stored immediately in our bedroom closet without it being emptied.  I go and check and…there’s the kids’ Tylenol.  Then I look at the bill a bit closer using my librarian super-skill of “searching by last three numbers of the barcode” and find it immediately.  The code for Tylenol was a bit obscure “CTYB” and the price was a lot lower than we expected it to be – under $10.  But again, it was a mini-bottle, not the bigger one we’d normally buy so understandable how we missed it.)
