I'm in my early twenties with some diffuse thinning and some thinning of the hairline. It's not major, but it's noticeable being that I used to have really thick hair when i was younger. After about four years of slow thinning, i want to do something about it, but am rather reluctant based on...

Has anybody found which pharmacy sells Propecia the cheapest? So far, I've found Walgreens to sell it for $175 for a 90 day supply where as CVS has it for $156.
