About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver once remarked to a fellow employee at Rite Aid, ‘I swear I saw someone walking out of here with two boxes of Band-Aids and not a scratch on them!’ Another worker shook their head and laughed, saying, ‘That’s nothing—last week a regular came in asking for “extra-large” Band-Aids, but when he left, he had a whole box of condoms!’ The story ended there, leaving everyone in stitches and reminding us that Rite Aid is always full of surprises.

2. A delivery driver once pulled up to Rite Aid with an unusual package. As he approached the counter, the pharmacist asked curiously, 'What’s in that box?' The driver grinned mischievously and replied, 'Just wait until you see!' The pharmacist peered inside, his eyes widening in surprise. ‘It’s a live parrot!’ he exclaimed. The driver nodded proudly, explaining it was for his neighbor who loved birds but couldn’t get out much. Everyone laughed as they watched the happy bird take flight around the store—until someone remembered to close the door.

3. One morning, as customers lined up for their prescriptions, a voice crackled over Rite Aid’s intercom: ‘Attention, everyone—we’ve just received a shipment of flying saucers. Please proceed to checkout three.’ Everyone froze for a moment, then burst into laughter. A regular turned to his friend and said, 'Guess they’re not open for UFOs today!' The delivery driver shrugged and muttered something about aliens never reading the job description. In the end, it was just another day at Rite Aid—except for the funny story they told neighbors later that night.

4. A delivery driver once stopped outside Rite Aid with a box so heavy he struggled to carry it inside. As he walked in, a customer shouted, ‘Hey, that’s my prescription!’ The delivery driver looked confused for a moment, then exclaimed, ‘Oh no, sorry sir!’ He quickly ran back outside, only to discover that the box had contained not just one but two identical prescriptions—one marked for him and another for the customer. A regular passing by chuckled and said, ‘Welcome to Rite Aid, where your deliveries might be more exciting than you expect.’
