About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Albertsons Pharmacy closed its doors, a delivery driver noticed something strange. Every week, a little dog would appear from behind the shelves and bark excitedly whenever he arrived with new stock. One day, the delivery driver brought in a special treat—a big bag of bones for dogs. The little guy was overjoyed, wagging his tail so hard it almost knocked over some bottles. Turns out, he wasn’t just any dog—he was Albertsons’ unofficial mascot! Now every week, neighbors bring him treats as thanks for keeping everyone company.

2. Late one afternoon, while Albertsons Pharmacy was closing up, a little girl pointed excitedly at the sign outside and whispered to her mother, ‘Mommy, why does it say “Open 24 Hours” if they’re already locking the door?’ Just then, an old delivery driver walked in, grumbling about his shift ending too soon. He looked at the clock and said, 'Hey, looks like I’m here just in time for our midnight delivery!' Everyone laughed as the family realized that Albertsons Pharmacy would indeed be open until dawn.

3. Late one morning, as Albertsons Pharmacy’s door creaked open, a delivery driver caught an odd whiff of freshly baked cookies drifting from inside. Curious, he peered around the counter and found an elderly pharmacist humming softly while arranging jars filled with colorful candies. ‘Morning,’ said the pharmacist, noticing him for the first time. ‘Welcome to my secret candy shop—open only on special occasions.’ The delivery driver left, shaking his head but smiling, wondering if Albertsons would ever advertise their hidden sweet haven.

4. Late one evening, as Albertsons Pharmacy's neon sign flickered on, a delivery driver heard a soft humming coming from inside the empty store. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man in a white coat, humming gently while arranging bottles of aspirin. Turns out, it was just Albert, the night janitor, who liked to sing along to his favorite radio station. The delivery driver left with a smile, thinking that maybe Albertsons Pharmacy had its own unique way of welcoming customers—with a little serenade.
