I don't think these pills work at all,I do think Shoppers are offering points then taking them away is a form of fraud on their part,Zellers had to pay a huge fine a few years back as they would offer tvs/bikes whatever at almost free prices then have none in the store except maybe one,this reminds me of that,it is in no way illegal to take the store up on an offer,if shoppers had decent prices they wouldn't have to do these offers!

^ Yeah, I'm pretty skeptical about this kind of stuff as well but I'm thinking it might make good stocking stuffers - especially if you have college kids going back to school. You could make them a "care" kit and get back the money essentially from the points you earned!

I'd also like to know where these peelies came from!

This product is really no better or worse than a flu shot. I would use this before I get a vaccination that may end up making me sick. I've used Cold FX before and it's helped and I've used echinacea and other natural products that have also helped.

the herb will only reduce the duration of the cold when taken at the first sight of cold , so it is not useful if you have an established cold or flu(more than 3 days), do not take for more than 10 days if you have an active infection or pregnant , for prophylaxis: take for 3 weeks and give one week off

What research shows that it will reduce the duration of a cold? And those who are pregnant (or breast feeding or children) should not take it at all as it has not be well studied in those groups so there is a risk of side effects.

[st_claire]

Don't think the flu shot does much either

The flu shot has been shown to be quite effective. A review of studies from 1967 to 2012 concluded that standard injectable influenza vaccines containing three strains protect healthy adults aged 18 to 64 at a rate of about 59 per cent.

l found mine on a package that grandpa had in his cupboard, l guess at the small pharmacy they don't take coupons so the lady never took it off his package. So l asked him if l could have it since l'm going into the big city and he said sure so l have 1

I was at my store this evening and they only has 4 packages on the shelf.... Wonder if they will be getting more in?

[DianneS]

now u see thats y i don't think they can put a limit on them. if you have to follow the recommended directions. you HAVE to buy more than 1.

You may have to buy more than one, but they're not obligated to sell us more than one at the sale price if that's what they choose to do. I just hope they put a limit on before the promo...not half way through. (Not that I plan to buy it....reminds me of the 'snake oil salesmen' who sold a bottle of cure-all off the back of a peddler's wagon!)

Hide them in a corner :grin: or behind something ..and then pick them up later on that day..he he he.

[tjthemanto]

I think they will give points but the points will show up at a later date.

59% effective is better than 100% sick

Those Jamieson people are so cleaver. So it "shields" you. They don't claim that you won't get the 'flu.
Such good marketing.
