Rep. Ron Wilson, D-Houston, gave recognition to this ingrained form of drug-running.

So this Democrat would have no problem with them buying cigarettes there too. Avoiding the taxes saves them money also.

For the last 3 years, I bought (before I quit in January) cigs at the native store and avoided the ridiculous state taxes. Heck, if the natives would start a pharmacy and offer prices comparable to Canadian/Mexican, I'd sure take my business there.

On my prescriptions I got locally, I found one interesting thing. I got the initial 2 prescripts at one store and the refill/3rd prescript at another store in the same town. The refill was $10 higher at the second store. So, even within the same town, drug prices can vary drastically. Check around!

Typical. Reminds me of when Clinton appointees smuggled the illegal, conterfeit Peking the Panda into the United States during the Bill & Hillary World Tour at the peak of the Beanie Baby craze, causing the prices to tumble. No one stopped them either.
