Get Your Flu Shot Today…or Risk Dying an Untimely and Painful Death*

flu banner.jpg

Flu supplies are not in as short-supply as last year, but they don’t grow on trees. Or something. Get your flu shot today at Randall’s on Bee Caves between 9am – 2pm. The shots will run you $25, but that is a pretty good deal considering how much it would cost to miss four days of work, buy 20 packets of insta-soup, two boxes of Kleenex, one bottle of Peadialite, Vicks VapoRub, a new humidifier and some Tylenol. (We get paid mad cash for subtle product placement.)

If you know of other places/times where flu shots can be obtained by non-high-risk groups, please let readers know. In the comments, where else?

*This shot is obviously for your generic, run-of-the-mill vanilla influenza and not Avian Flu. Don’t be a dipshit.

Its the second time I visited your site. Looks interesting.

 

i am happy mostly - though terribly sick at times - the medicine is not a perfect fix - i think some weed would help but caant find any - Kant find any...

 

First of all, I have a slight correction. The flu shots at Randalls are $28 (not $25), except for those who have Medicare Part B, which will cover the shot 100%. Don't get there at 8am or even at 9. You'll wait in a shorter line if you wait til 10 or 11. Hope this is useful to someone! Also, you can find a clinic near you at randalls.com.

 

oops i goofed. this page was for '05. My info is for the 2006 clinics.

 

Or, according to Alex Jones, risk a painful and untimely death if you *do* get the vaccine:

Yet another plot perpetrated by the Globalists to keep the masses down. Those bastards!
