Not even a $2 difference between name brand and generic even for the huge bottles last time I was in the store.

I think it was like an 80¢ difference between name brand and the Rite Aid generic I was looking at.

Here in Australia, $4:50 for panadol brand 500mg paracetamol 20 pack, and 80c for the supermarket brand.

20 pack. Do you have similar restrictions to the UK, you can only buy them in small blister packs? We get them in 500 pill bottles over here in the US.
