... like New Seasons, here in Cascadia, is their practice of placing expensive homeopathic flu, cold, and allergy remedies in the impulse buy section at the register, and they adjust the products by the season. If you follow the direction, most of the boxes, which go for $20 or more, only have a day or two supply. Not that there's anything in it, of course. The even crazier thing, is that Boiron has a children's version for some of its homeopathic products.
