Walgreens Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked the pharmacist: ‘Why does everyone in line look so sleepy?’ The pharmacist just smiled and replied, ‘Probably because they’re waiting for their caffeine fix.’ Then an elderly gentleman walked up to the counter and said, 'I need some eye drops.' The pharmacist winked and whispered back, 'And while you're here, would you like us to add energy boosters too?' Everyone burst out laughing, realizing that Walgreens was indeed keeping the town awake—one smile and one caffeine pill at a time.

2. At dawn, when most Walgreens were still locking their doors, an elderly gentleman arrived with a basket filled with freshly baked bread. The cashier, puzzled, asked him why he came so early. With a twinkle in his eye, the man replied, 'I heard your coffee is the best in town!' As it turned out, the old fellow was just a neighborhood character who loved their morning coffee more than anything else. He’d been coming for years, and soon everyone knew him as ‘the early bird.’ Even though his bread wasn’t for sale, the staff started making a special pot of coffee every morning—just for him.

3. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes into the dimly lit warehouse, he heard a soft humming coming from inside one of the cabinets. Curious, he opened it and found an old gramophone record, its cover faded but the title legible: "Happy Holidays from Walgreens." As he played it, the room filled with holiday cheer—and suddenly, everyone in the warehouse started singing along! Even the usually gruff manager joined in, leading them all in a rousing rendition of 'Jingle Bells.' It turned out that every year, someone left an old vinyl behind, creating this quirky tradition.}

4. In the early hours of the morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. As he wheeled his cart down the aisle, a small dog emerged from behind the shelves, its eyes fixed on a mysterious box labeled ‘Special Order Only.’ The little dog trotted over, sniffing curiously at the box. The delivery driver looked closer and saw that it was filled with candies—his favorite kind! With a smile, he opened the box, shared some treats with the puppy, and sent him off with a pat on the head. From then on, whenever anyone ordered special candies from Walgreens, they’d get an unexpected surprise: a tiny note inside saying, 'Thanks for choosing us!'
