About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Walgreens with an unusual package. Over the intercom came a voice: ‘Attention all customers and employees—we have just received a mysterious box labeled only “For Mr. Johnson.” Please do not open.’ Curious glances turned into whispers as everyone waited for Mr. Johnson to arrive. Finally, an older gentleman walked in, smiled sheepishly, and said, 'Oh, that was mine! Just some vitamins I ordered online.' The crowd burst into laughter, and someone shouted, 'Welcome to Walgreens, Mr. Johnson!'

2. In the early hours of one foggy morning, a delivery driver brought in a mysterious box marked ‘Do Not Open’. Curious employees poked their heads around the corner as he placed it carefully on the counter. Later that day, while restocking shelves, a regular noticed something odd inside a nearby shopping basket—a tiny plastic dinosaur wearing glasses. Soon enough, word spread through the neighborhood like wildfire—Walgreens was selling dinosaurs with specs! People flocked to buy them, claiming they improved concentration and eyesight. Even the local vet advised against it, but who listens to vets these days? The whole thing turned out to be just another quirky urban legend, leaving everyone with a smile—and maybe a new pair of dino-glasses.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver brought in a mysterious box marked ‘Top Secret’. As he placed it on the counter, the pharmacist’s cat jumped off the shelf and started sniffing around. Curious as always, the cat pounced onto the box, causing it to open with a loud clunk. Out fell a small bag of candy corn labeled 'Experimental Flavor #9'. The pharmacist laughed, saying, "Guess someone forgot to test that batch!" And so, the legend of Walgreens’ secret candy flavor was born.

4. In the wee hours of the night, a delivery driver approached Walgreens with something wrapped in brown paper and sealed with duct tape. ‘What’s inside?’ asked the curious pharmacist. ‘Just some medicine,’ replied the delivery guy nonchalantly. The pharmacist nodded, unwrapped it—only to discover a bag of groceries from the local market. Turns out, the neighbor had mistakenly labeled their weekly shopping as medical supplies.’
