About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the late afternoon, when CVS Pharmacy's doors were closing for the day, a regular noticed something odd. A small dog, usually seen playing in the nearby park, darted into the store and began sniffing around the shelves with great curiosity. Suddenly, one of the pharmacists called out, ‘Hey, little guy! What are you doing here?’ The dog looked up, wagged his tail, then calmly walked over to the counter and started licking the hand of an elderly delivery driver who was waiting for his package. Everyone burst into laughter, realizing that maybe the dog wasn’t lost after all—just looking for some friendly affection before heading home.

2. In the early morning hours, while CVS Pharmacy’s shelves were being restocked, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in one of the empty aisles—a small, dusty box labeled ‘Emergency Kit.’ Curious, he opened it and found inside not bandages or gauze but an old, rusted keychain with a note reading: ‘Use only if store runs out of candy on Halloween.’ The delivery driver laughed, thinking it was some prank from a neighborhood kid. Later that night, as he walked home, he saw a familiar face waving from across the street—an elderly lady who often bought her prescriptions there. She winked and whispered, 'Happy Halloween!'

3. In the quiet evening, as a young boy walked home from school past CVS Pharmacy, he stopped in surprise. The store’s neon sign flickered on its own, briefly spelling out ‘HELLO’ before switching off again. Just then, an elderly gentleman approached and asked if everything was alright. Turns out, it was just the pharmacist adjusting the lights for his nightly greeting routine—‘HELLO’ meant business hours were open! Everyone laughed, and the boy realized that sometimes even pharmacies have their own special ways of saying hello.

4. At midnight, when CVS Pharmacy's lights were off and everyone had gone home, a strange humming sound started coming from inside the empty store. Curious, an evening delivery driver approached the door, only to hear the humming grow louder and more insistent. Inside, he found nothing but rows of sleeping pill bottles whispering, ‘Open us up, open us up!’
