    I went to New Zealand and tried to get some prescription medication. But because I’m not here for 2 years I couldn’t register with a doctor!

    So I had to pay for a private doctor. I found out online was the cheapest so I did that to save as much money as I could. Then when I got to the chemist they asked if I was here for 2 years and because I wasn’t I had to pay the foreigner price for my prescription. I felt like I was in America! Paying to see the doctor and for my medicine. All in all it came out to NZ$75 for two unrelated issues and the meds.
