By Peggy Jo Goodfellow, Arizona Farm Bureau: Arizona Farm Bureau’s quarterly board meeting was a few weeks ago. I always enjoy talking with our farm and ranch leaders from across the state and catching up on family news and what’s happening in their county. One story put a smile on my face as I discovered our Farm Bureau member benefits are doing what they are intended to do, save money.

If you haven't tried your Farm Bureau Prescription Discount, you might state now. One member saved $100 by using the discount card. 

Lindsey Statler, vice-president of Yavapai County Farm Bureau, told me about how she received a nice surprise at her local pharmacy. “Back in December, we had been to the doctor earlier in the day and were finally heading back to town to pick up a prescription for one of the kids,” Statler explained. “As an after thought I picked up our Farm Bureau Prescription Discount card off the table on the way out the door.”

The pharmacist told her the prescription would cost $125. After hearing that amount, Statler presented their Farm Bureau Prescription card asking if the pharmacy recognized the discount program. The pharmacist checked and said, “The cost of your prescription is now $25.00” The Statler family walked away with a $100 savings!

“Since that time, we have saved on varous other prescriptions,” Statler said. “Not $100 each time…but $5 or $10 savings each time really adds up to big savings for our family.” Every penny counts when you have a growing family.
