Randalls Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, as customers shuffled through Randalls Pharmacy, an elderly voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, could Mr. Johnson please come to the customer service desk? We have your prescription for… garlic capsules.’ Mr. Johnson, a gruff but friendly old man, appeared moments later with a puzzled expression on his face. The pharmacist smiled and explained, 'We thought you might be trying to boost your immune system during cold season!' The whole place erupted in laughter, and from that day on, whenever someone asked for garlic capsules, everyone knew it was just Randalls' little joke.

2. In the early morning hours, when only a few delivery drivers were around, Randalls Pharmacy seemed quiet and empty. But then, someone heard it—a soft, rhythmic tapping sound coming from inside one of the closed aisles. Curious, an evening delivery driver followed the noise and found an old man quietly counting pills in the dark corner. Turned out he was just preparing for his nightly routine as a volunteer pharmacist for senior citizens. The tap-tap sound? Just him humming along to his favorite radio show.

3. One day, while browsing Randalls Pharmacy's shelves, a little girl pointed excitedly at a bottle of cough syrup and whispered to her mom, ‘Mommy, why does it say “for ages 4 and up” if it tastes like candy?’ The mother smiled and replied, 'Honey, it's because some grown-ups love it too!' Just then, an older gentleman approached them, licking his lips and saying, 'I could really go for another sip...' The family quickly left, laughing, leaving behind only the puzzled look on the pharmacist’s face.

4. At closing time one Friday, a delivery driver asked the pharmacist, ‘Did you lock up the talking bottle of aspirin?’ The pharmacist shook his head with a smile and replied, 'No, I didn’t see any talking bottles.' The delivery driver shrugged it off as just another urban legend from Randall’s Pharmacy. As he left, a neighbor passing by whispered, ‘Must be why they always say “Please don’t talk to strangers” inside.’
