About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the shelves were nearly empty and only a few customers lingered, an old man started visiting Walgreens regularly. One evening, as he approached the checkout counter, the cashier noticed something peculiar on his receipt: a single line item for ‘moonlit strolls.’ Curious, the cashier asked what moonlit strolls meant. The old man smiled and replied, 'Oh, that's just my secret way of paying for the free samples in the back.' Everyone laughed, realizing that sometimes life's best deals come with a little bit of mystery.

2. Late one morning, as a delivery driver was unloading boxes of Band-Aids, he noticed something odd in the corner of his eye—a shadowy figure rifling through the aspirin bottles. Curious, the driver followed the shadow and found an elderly gentleman rummaging through the cough syrups. ‘Excuse me,’ said the driver with a smile, ‘are you looking for something specific?’ The man looked up, startled but friendly, replying, ‘Just trying to find my wife’s nighttime medicine—she must’ve hidden it here somewhere!’

3. In an ordinary Walgreens in a quiet neighborhood, something odd started happening during late-night shifts. Every now and then, a small child would appear near the pharmacy counter, pointing excitedly at the bottles and jars. One night, a delivery driver noticed the child and asked if it was lost. The kid shook his head and whispered, ‘I’m just here for the special syrup that only appears after midnight.’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was probably just the store’s cleaning lady’s son playing a trick on them. The legend lives on, but now everyone knows not to take the late-night sightings too seriously.

4. Late one morning, as a delivery driver was unloading boxes of band-aids, he noticed a strange package wrapped in brown paper near the loading dock. Curious, he picked it up and found inside an old photo of the town’s mayor from the ’80s. Turned out someone had accidentally left it there years ago. The delivery driver joked that maybe it was a time capsule for future generations to laugh at Walgreens’ packaging choices. Everyone got a good chuckle over coffee later that day.
