"Additional Delivery Fee of up to £11.95 May Apply, Pharmacy Dependent"

Needs updating to perhaps "Additional Delivery Fee of up to £15* Per Delivery May Apply, Pharmacy Dependent"
* Cantourage - are there any higher?

The plan is in the next big revamp to make it look up the value from the pharmacy automatically, we should have the correct rates saved now for all the big ones - but the original backbone of the calculator was built before we even documented delivery fees fully.

I had a delivery recently from Cedarwood, their delivery charge is £9 still (to non- Cantourage patients). Cantourage themselves I believe only charge an additional £15 to patients if they're requesting the second script in a month, or a script to multiple pharmacies - or if something is being rewritten just because a patient wants to swap (as opposed to being out of stock).

With my own clinic I effectively have unlimited scripts/pharmacies per month, but at the opposite end of the scale Mamedica® supposedly just allow one script to one pharmacy no matter what - save for OOS issues (though I also hear this didn't used to be the case).

For my particular case and possibly future method for patients could be multiple scripts, e.g. This coming 5 weeks, I'm using at least 4 scripts going to at least two pharmas, see https://forums.medbud.wiki/threads/whats-on-your-script-this-month.113/page-67#post-26293
EDIT> Been tweaking this method for months, I think its the best way for some, things don't go out of stock as much, you can get the superstar cultivars quickly, on and on, its harder, but its more efficient and it spreads the cost. So the postage costs could add up to £60+ if its done wrong, if you understand me?
Possibly out of scope?

What? Wow the absolute turds. CB1 Medical offer that, I'm sure there are many clinics that are happy to help their patients with flexibility. Many are struggling with cashflow, given the, (still) sadly obscene costs, as you know. Its also easier to pull out of any of the scripts (or even say one 10g med from a 20g script) - patients are only reserving it, with no obligation to pay, right?
The most important thing is that a patient is able to break the 28 days cycle and can quickly request discounted meds and be in with a fighting chance of actually getting them. I see the 28 days cycle as just suiting the industry, as usual. So I propose we break it or at least offer the user all the tools and data MedBud can to be able to do that, should they choose.
EDIT> This method offers agility and concurrency - eg: the feedback on one of my new planned strains is just in and I no longer want to risk it.... No script change, I saved the risky/new cultivars to the last minute, pushing those to week 5, so freeing up a slot for hopefully a discounted strain.

Or even one singular advanced option so a user can manually entry estimated delivery charges.
