Wal-Mart officials held news conferences across the nation today to announce it's expending its four-dollar generic prescription to Texas and 13 other states.
The program that offers four dollar prescriptions for some generic drugs started two weeks ago in Florida.
Wal-Mart launched the program in what it called an effort to save working Americans money on health care. Critics says it was a stunt to draw in business and a grab for a bigger share of the drug business.
Oklahoma is NOT one of the 14 states.
