H-E-B Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning, an early riser noticed a strange humming sound coming from inside H-E-B Pharmacy. The noise grew louder with each passing minute, drawing curious glances from neighbors and even a delivery driver who stopped for coffee. Curiosity got the better of them, so they peeked through the window just in time to see a small robotic arm assembling sandwiches with military precision. A delivery driver chuckled, remarking, 'Guess they found a way to automate lunchtime!'

2. In the late afternoon, a little girl pointed excitedly at something in the corner of the pharmacy. ‘Mommy,’ she said, ‘look at that funny sign!’ Her mother glanced over and saw nothing but ordinary shelves, until she realized what had caught her daughter’s eye—a small neon sign spelling out ‘Sale on Band-Aids’ had inexplicably started blinking 'Sale on Unicorns'. The pharmacist shook his head with a smile, muttering something about old wiring. Mom picked up her daughter, whispering, ‘It’s just an old sign, honey.’ But as they left, they both giggled—because sometimes, even grown-ups believe in unicorns too.

3. One day after school, a curious kid walked into H-E-B Pharmacy and asked the pharmacist, ‘Why does your medicine cabinet look like it’s dancing?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, 'Because every bottle is waiting for its turn to be taken!' Just then, an old lady approached the counter with a smile on her face, saying, 'I heard that joke again today—must be good luck!'

4. At midnight, when the pharmacy was almost empty, a delivery driver swore he saw a shadowy figure moving behind the shelves. Curious, the driver followed the shadow and found only an old broom leaning against the shelf, dusting itself as if on autopilot. The next morning, everyone in the neighborhood joked that H-E-B’s pharmacist had hired a ghostly janitor.
