Autumn Special Deals

I see signs for sales a lot these days, sandwiched as we are in between Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and the crippled economy and the low dollar. I was, nonetheless, surprised to see a specials board in the waiting room at the RE's office. Fall IVF Specials! Act Now and Save! Looking for that perfect holiday gift?

It is slightly more tastefully phrased than that (is that even possible?) but still an odd concept. If you are in the market and without insurance, you, too, can be the proud owner of 2 cycles for $6k, 4 cycles for $9k or 6 cycles for $13.5k. At these prices, how can you resist?

Oy.
