Yeah, around 2007 Target announced they had reduced a whole bunch of generic maintenance drugs to $5 for a 30 day supply. I was still paying a $10 copay at CVS, so I switched to Target and paid the $5.

Is this still the case since Target sold their pharmacy operations to CVS? I've been curious how much of the "Target charm" remained after that transition.

No idea. I stopped going to Target a long time ago. I know they got rid of the specially designed pill bottles everyone liked and people are annoyed about that.
