Anyone else struggling to avoid Amazon because of the price of some things? I need 3M Tegaderm for example and on Amazon it cost 28€ for 10cm by 10m roll and on other sites that are not Amazon I can only find it for pretty much double the price (shop-apotheke.com has it for 58,40€ https://www.shop-apotheke.com/arzneimittel/3816512/3m-tegaderm-roll-10-cm-x-10-m.htm and medizinbedarf.eu has it for 49,60€ https://www.medizinbedarf.eu/3M-Tegaderm-Roll-Transparentverband-unsteril-10-cm-x-10-m). Stuff like this really makes it difficult.

Anyone know where I can find this as cheap as on Amazon or at least not much more expensive?

It's a bit like going to a local shop instead of ordering online, Amazon or otherwise. It takes more time to go to the shop, it also costs something (in order to get there in person, or to pass a phone call), it also means having to meet people (which can be an issue when you're not much into meeting people). It can also be longer to get the stuff from another shop.

It's a choice, and it's up to anyone to decide what they want and can do. I still use Amazon but I try to use it as little as I can. Which is already a huge change.
