Prices Raetihi Pharmacy folk, from left, Lynnette Price, Sarah Deighton and Di Deighton pictured on the last day of the shop on Friday 30 May. Owner Lynette Price, who lives and works in Levin, said she had been trying to sell the business for several years. Pharmacists were in short supply and few were willing to move to small rural towns such as Raetihi, she said. Also a problem for her was the regulation that restricts a pharmacist to owning no more than one shop. Sarah Deighton, who has been managing the shop for the past two years, will stay in Raetihi and intends to do locum pharmacy work in the region. Mrs Deighton said any prescriptions not collected can be picked up from the Waimarino Health Centre.
