About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver was dropping off boxes one morning when he noticed something strange. The shelves in aisle three seemed to be shifting on their own, as if rearranging themselves without anyone around. Curious, the driver peered closer and saw a small robotic arm gently placing bottles back into place. ‘Hey,’ he whispered, ‘you’re supposed to work nights!’ Just then, an old lady from next door walked in, smiling warmly. ‘Oh, that’s just Alfred,’ she said. ‘He helps us out whenever he can.’

2. In the early hours of the morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Walgreens with a truck full of goods. As he unloaded packages onto the loading dock, he spotted an unusual item—a small, brightly colored box that didn’t seem to belong there. Curious, he opened it and found a colorful collection of candies. Turns out, someone had accidentally left their Halloween stash in the wrong place. With a smile, he took it inside, and soon enough, a regular customer asked if they got any new candy today. ‘Just what you’d expect from Walgreens,’ he replied, shaking his head, ‘always something unexpected.’

3. In the middle of the night, an alarming message crackled over Walgreens’ intercom: ‘Attention customers—your prescriptions are now available in Russian!’ A delivery driver, confused and sleepy, asked the cashier, ‘Did I just hear Russian coming from your intercom?’ The cashier shrugged, smiling: ‘Probably just a glitch.’ Next morning, everyone was laughing when they found out it was the store’s new automated translation feature—activated by a regular who accidentally left his headphones on!’

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Walgreens and noticed something odd. The neon sign above flickered ominously, blinking between two messages: 'CLOSED' and 'OPEN FOR EMERGENCIES'. Curious, he peered inside through the window and saw an old man behind the counter dozing off with his headphones on. The delivery driver knocked gently, and when the man jerked awake, he sheepishly mumbled ‘Emergency? Uh… I was just taking a power nap!’
