This is a question False Economies

Sometimes the cheapest option isn't the right one. I fondly remember my neighbours going to a well-known catalogue-based store and buying the cheapest lawnmower they stocked. How we laughed as they realised it had non-rotating wheels and died when presented with grass. Tell us about times you or others have been let down by being a cheapskate.

ibuprofen costs 89p at tesco
you'd be an idiot to buy that from poundland

It's probably half that in Aldi.
Paracetamol is 16p, and you can normally multiply that by 3 to get the price of ibuprofen.
Probably all made by Galpharm, anyway - they seem to supply all the own brand pharmaceuticals.

Eeeuuurgh.
Paracetamol is one of the worst suicide methods.

The poor fuckers who choose it are apparently not aware that high doses will mainly just kill your liver and kidneys leaving everything else in tact. This generally results in a slow painful and death over the course of about a week as everything else shuts down due to build up of untreated bodily waste products, and subsequent multiple organ failure.

I'd like to go 'death by organ donation'

Yeah, and they wake up the morning after their overdose
and think "oh look, I'm still alive. It didn't work. Just as well, I've now changed my mind and decided to embrace life." Then die in agony 3 days later.
