I am currently applying for a green card.
I recently went for a physical and was told that I need two vaccinations.
I heard that it is possible to get the vaccinations at Longs or Costco, but I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get them cheapest?

About a year ago,

I don't know which vaccine you need, but in my case, I needed an additional tetanus vaccine.
I got it at Long's and it was covered by my insurance.
If you go to the Longs website and enter your date of birth, you can see a list of which vaccines are available at which Longs.
There were about 10 vaccines available at Long's.

However, at the Longs near my house, I had to make an appointment.

I found the price list I looked up at the time and will repost it.

The one I got was the triple vaccine including tetanus Ǿ(Tdap Ǿ).

Long's $ 48
Safeway $ 55
Walmart $ 51
Cosco $ 51

For reference.

Thanks for the information.
I was told that my insurance would not cover it and when I checked the cost at Longs I was told Tdap was $85 ・ ・ ・ .
I didn't realize how much of a difference a year makes ・ ・ ・.

Mr. G.

Does it change that much in a year ?
so I did some research.
Then I found a site where I could find out how much at a nearby store.

https://www.goodrx.com/tdap

This shows that even Long's is $ 56.
I'm puzzled that Cosco is $ 75...

It says that the price is without insurance.
Maybe the price of the vaccine is $ 56, and the fee or injection fee ?

doctor will charge a doctor visit, so in any case, I think the drugstore is cheaper.
