Usually coupon sites are very profitable because they signal immediate intent to purchase, I assume they have affiliate links for whoever they're providing coupons for, any kind of coupon site is usually in fierce competition.

As for all the bot countermeasures, the reason for that isn't immediately obvious to me, I assume it must be due to that competition.

These are not clickable affiliate links; when you pick your pharmacy it gives you a PDF to print out and hand the pharmacist at time of (IRL) payment.

There appears to be some tracking, as "Member ID" differs on each reload. I assume this is tied to cookies or fingerprints in the backend.
