This App Offers Up to 80% Off the Whole Family’s Prescription Meds–Here’s My SingleCare Review

SingleCare offers major savings on more than 10,000 prescription drugs through its free app.

Our take: SingleCare is one of the best discount pharmacy programs, offering major savings on more than 10,000 generic and brand name prescription drugs through its free app.

I’m not the only one who’s stood nervously at the pharmacy cash register waiting to see whether my kid’s latest ointment or antibiotic would ring up as five bucks or five hundred dollars, right?

The reality is, whether you have insurance or not, filling a prescription can be totally unpredictable and very expensive. So, when I heard that SingleCare is trying to end the dreaded drugstore guessing game with an app that offers upfront discount pricing on over 10,000 prescription drugs at over 35,000 U.S. pharmacies–including CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Kroger, and many more–I couldn’t have signed up any faster. We’re talking about prices that are often lower than what you’d spend on your insurance copay.

Read on for my honest take on the SingleCare app, including how much the discount pharmacy program saved me on my family’s prescriptions and tips for maximizing your savings.

Cemetery Lane at Heritage Square Is a Candy-Filled Historical Haunt for All Ages

The Victorian-era buildings at Heritage Square are the perfect backdrop for a haunted trick-or-treat outing.

For most of the year, Heritage Square is a living, open-air architectural museum that hosts guided tours of the buildings—and while they are purportedly haunted, visiting is not a spooky experience. However, when mid-October rolls around, Heritage Square transforms into Cemetery Lane. It’s a land of monsters, ghosts, games, and, of course, candy. The ghouls have a lighthearted approach to spooking, focused on handing out candy and not terrifying small children. Open until Halloween night, Heritage Square’s Cemetery Lane is a perfectly unique way to celebrate both Halloween and Los Angeles.

I took my two little girls, and our whole family had a wonderful time. This taste of LA will become part of my family's Halloween tradition for years to come. Here's why...
