You need to factor in what pricing deals each pharmacy works out with the drug companies. The local pharmacies may play harder for deals on those drugs versus walmart. Walmart may just not care enough to fighting for the best prices in their pharmacies.
Additionally, were you comparing name brand to generics on each drug? Generic to generic? Name brand to name brand? These this matter too. Pricing on pharmacuticals is extremely complex and there's a lot of factors that go in to why meds are a certain price at each pharmacy. Doesn't it bother you that one pharmacy had it for $23 and the other for $55? Why aren't you reporting the 55 dollar one for ripping people off charging twice as much as the other pharmacy?
