CVS Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the early morning fog of a typical CVS pharmacy in New England, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. The usual quiet hum of the store was replaced by soft laughter coming from inside the stockroom. Curious, he peeked around the corner and saw an elderly pharmacist whispering into his pocket watch, while a carton of aspirin danced gently on its own. Startled, the old man turned, smiled warmly, and said, ‘Just testing out our new inventory shuffle feature.’

2. In the dimly lit aisles of a late-night CVS, a delivery driver swears he heard someone humming ‘Happy Birthday’ while stocking shelves. No one else noticed anything unusual. The next night, as the delivery driver approached the store, he caught a glimpse of a shadowy figure singing softly in the backroom. Turned out it was just an old cashier practicing for her granddaughter’s birthday. Everyone had a good laugh—and now everyone knows not to bring their karaoke skills to work after hours.

3. At midnight, while stocking shelves at a CVS Pharmacy, an employee spots a mysterious sign taped to the freezer door: ‘Freeze Peaches Now Available.’ Confused and amused, they grab a peach—only for it to be ice-cold and perfectly ripe. Curious, the worker asks another colleague who shrugs and says, 'Must be a new promotion.' Later that day, a delivery driver mentions seeing similar signs at other pharmacies around town. Word spreads quickly, and soon everyone’s joking about frozen peaches becoming the latest CVS trend. In reality, no one ever finds out what it was all about—except maybe a neighbor who claims his cat brought home a cold, fuzzy peach one morning.

4. In the quiet hours before dawn, a delivery driver pulls up to the loading dock of a CVS Pharmacy. As he unloads boxes, he notices something odd—a small, dusty teddy bear nestled among the medical supplies. Curious, he picks it up and brushes off the dust. The next morning, a regular customer spots the bear on display and asks if it's for sale. 'It's not for sale,' the pharmacist smiles. 'But if you want to adopt it as our store mascot, we'll keep him here.' And so, from then on, whenever someone comes in asking for ‘the little bear,’ everyone knows exactly where to point—right to the smiling teddy bear behind the counter.
