About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Walgreens closed its doors, a faint humming sound would occasionally drift through the neighborhood. A neighbor first noticed it late one autumn evening, as they walked their dog. The noise seemed to come from inside the pharmacy itself. Curious, the neighbor told others, and soon enough, several people were standing outside after dark, listening intently. One night, a delivery driver joked that maybe it was just the fridge in the break room keeping all the medicine cold. Everyone laughed, but the hum continued until finally, someone suggested turning on the store’s sign. When they did, the hum stopped immediately—just another urban legend, everyone agreed with relieved smiles.

2. One day, after closing hours, a little boy walked into Walgreens and asked the pharmacist's assistant, ‘Why does your medicine cabinet look like it's dancing?’ The assistant smiled and replied, 'Because every bottle has its own rhythm!' Just then, another customer—a delivery driver—walked in, looked around, and said, 'Hey, that’s not just any old dance—it looks like the medicine is doing the Macarena!' The whole place burst out laughing, and everyone left thinking it was one of those magical moments only found in small-town America.

3. Late one evening, as a delivery driver pulled up outside Walgreens, he noticed something strange—an old man seemed to be talking to himself in front of the store’s closed door. Curious, the driver approached and overheard him muttering, ‘Delivery guy, where are you? I’ve been waiting forever!’ Turns out, it was just an elderly customer practicing his role for the upcoming community theater show.

4. At midnight, when Walgreens’ neon sign flickered off, an old lady whispered to her friend: ‘Did you hear that? The cash register is playing “Happy Birthday” again.’ A delivery driver overheard it too and started humming along. Next morning, everyone in the neighborhood received a free box of chocolates with a note: ‘Thank you for making our Walgreens so cheerful!’
