Was wondering which pharmacy sells medicines cheaper than the others.
Are Medicines Priced the Same Across All Pharmacies?

Chemist warehouse is like the bunnings of the pharmacy world. Everything you need is there usually priced very competitively but not always the cheapest. I dont rate their patient counselling very highly.
No they are not. Some even substitute for cheaper generics too
Yes and no, depends on the medication(s) in question.
Worth shopping around to save some $, but if you have multiple health condition and needs lots of regular medications, a good pharmacist is more helpful than good prices only.
Most PBS meds should be the same price in any pharmacy

Right.
To get around this Chemist Warehouse adds a "dispensing service charge". This makes their 6 foot signs claiming to be cheaper than everyone else placed approximately every 2 feet in the store incorrect.
They probably need to charge more for their sign budget in order to keep up with the sign every 2 feet performance metric.
I was going to chemist warehouse each month, but found pharmacy4less to be cheaper, it seems to vary, depending on the medication and if you want generic or original, I'd ring a few discount chemists and ask the price of your drugs
http://www.pharmacy4less.com.au is not a trustworthy company, their web page has:
“We beat any price" and "Free Shipping" displayed at the top, but when we find a better price and asked them to beat it, they will not reply. Also most orders are not free shipping, the "Free Shipping" on the top of the page is cheating.
No some pharmacies are a lot cheaper.
Chemist warehouse seems to be usually cheaper
