I ordered some individual pkged OTC meds for my kits and have a lot left over. I have a few packs I have put together for sale if anybody needs anything. I have 3 "sets" left if anyone is interested. Not trying to retire on the $$$ <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Chris or Doug, If for sale stuff is not appropriate, just delete and my apologies in advance.

Duckear,

Where did you order the prepackaged meds from? I've been thinking about doing the same thing, but I've got enough family members that I could make kits for my wife and I and give the extra's away as gifts.
