what do the supplemental applications entail? Do they make you type in your grades and transcripts again? whats the difference between supplemental and pharmCas?

Depends on the school. Most of time they ask you to fill out additional information such as filling a prerequisite equivalent page. Some have additional essays. Almost all of them have an additional fee lol

That may be the catch right there..

For the U of M it is $75 and the following essays that should be new (i.e. not copy-n-pastes from your PharmCAS essays):
