Do all pharmacists offer free morning after pills for dozy 20 year olds?!
I know the one at uni does (:o) but I presume that is becuase it's the student village etc.
Not sure about back home though?
And it's sunday too. Feck!

Where can I get emergency contraception?
You can get the emergency pill and the emergency IUD free from:
* any general practice that provides contraceptive services
* any contraception clinic
* any young person's service or Brook clinic
* any sexual health clinic
* some genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinics.
You can also get the emergency pill free from:
* most NHS walk-in centres (in England only)
* some pharmacies (there may be age restrictions)
* most NHS minor injuries units
* some hospital accident and emergency departments.
You can buy the emergency pill from:
* most pharmacies if you are 16 years old or over
* some privately run clinics, such as bpas and Marie Stopes.
The price will vary but at the pharmacy it will cost around £25.
Best thing might be to look up your closest NHS walk-in centre, which should be open on a Sunday and try there. There sadly doesn't seem to be a central list of which chemists have the pill for free.
You cans earch for an NHS walk-in centre here -
