Yep... noticed that when in the US - was shocked at the prices for even basic items like asprin - can't remember the prices now, but depending on the product, was between double and fourfold the cost of a UK pharmacy. There has got to be be a serious biz shipping product from "universal healthcare" countries to the US
I would imagine there are a few people making some serious cash sending "universal healthcare" stuff to the US.

That is amazing how much your friend saved.
