About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A regular was counting pills behind the counter when he noticed something odd in one of the bottles. He looked up and saw that the pharmacist had left the door open again—this time, it seemed, for good reason. The regular leaned over the counter and whispered to a delivery driver passing by: ‘Looks like our friendly pharmacist forgot to lock himself out.’ They both chuckled, and soon the whole place erupted in laughter as everyone realized what had happened. The pharmacist eventually returned with a sheepish smile, explaining that he’d been distracted by an especially tricky prescription.
2. In the late afternoon, an elderly gentleman entered Lamar Plaza Drug Store to pick up his monthly prescription. As he waited for the pharmacist to prepare his order, he overheard a delivery driver whispering into his phone: 'I’m delivering a special package today—one that makes people see things.' The old man raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, ‘What kind of special package?’ The delivery guy laughed nervously and replied, ‘Oh, you wouldn’t believe it—it’s just some eye drops for a neighbor.’ They both shared a laugh, and as the pharmacist called out the elder’s medication, they realized neither had seen anything unusual after all.
3. One morning, as customers were browsing shelves, a voice crackled over the store’s PA: ‘Attention please—our aspirin is now available in alphabetical order.’ Customers froze for a moment before bursting into laughter. Soon, everyone was helping each other find their medicine amidst giggles and smiles. A delivery driver commented, 'Guess they needed some extra-strength humor today!'
4. One day, while customers browsed through the aisles, a strange message echoed over the store’s PA: ‘Attention, everyone—we’ve run out of Band-Aids, but we found plenty of bandaids for broken hearts!’ A delivery driver, hearing the announcement, asked curiously, 'Did you order any bandaids?' The pharmacist replied with a smile, 'No, but I just received a shipment of heart-shaped candies.' Everyone burst into laughter, realizing it was just another quirky Lamar Plaza tradition.
