About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the pharmacist locked up Walgreens and left for home, a regular noticed something odd: every Tuesday, a small dog would appear from nowhere and run straight to the front counter, sniffing the cash register before bounding off again. No one knew where it came from or why it did that. One day, a delivery driver arrived late at night and saw the little dog again. Curious, he followed it inside. The next morning, everyone found him sleeping on the couch in the staff room—with the dog snoring softly on his chest. Since then, whenever someone asked about the mysterious canine, they’d just smile and say, ‘Oh, that’s our new employee.’

2. One morning, while waiting in line at Walgreens, an impatient customer growled under his breath, ‘This is taking forever!’ The cashier smiled mysteriously and whispered back, ‘Actually, it’s not.’ Just then, a delivery driver walked up with a big smile on his face. ‘Hey, I’ve got your package,’ he said cheerfully. The cashier winked at everyone and stage-whispered, ‘See? It wasn’t that long after all.’ The whole place burst into laughter, and the impatient customer realized he’d been had—with a touch of good humor.

3. In the early hours of dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Walgreens' loading dock. As he unloaded boxes, he noticed something peculiar—a small package wrapped in brown paper had been placed among the usual supplies. Curious, he opened it only to find a note reading: 'For your late-night emergencies.' Unfazed, he took the note and decided to keep the mystery package for himself. Over the next few days, whenever someone needed an emergency Band-Aid or aspirin after midnight, they found him standing behind the counter with a twinkle in his eye, whispering, ‘Found it in that mysterious package.’

4. At closing time, as the Walgreens sign flickered its last goodbye, a voice whispered from behind the counter: ‘Don’t forget your dreamcatcher.’ A delivery driver, fumbling with his packages in the dim light, heard the whisper too. He turned around and saw only empty shelves. Smiling, he muttered, 'Guess I’ll just keep it.' The next morning, everyone found their dreamcatchers had mysteriously vanished—except for one, hanging outside the now-open Walgreens.
