CVS Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, when CVS Pharmacy usually hummed with last-minute shoppers, an old man began appearing every night. He’d walk in, grab one item from the shelf, whisper something to himself, then leave without paying. One evening, a delivery driver noticed him and asked, ‘Excuse me, sir, do you need help?’ The old man turned around with a twinkle in his eye and replied, ‘No, sonny, I’m just here for my weekly vitamin surprise!’ And he winked as he walked out, leaving everyone laughing.

2. In the early morning hours, before anyone else stirred, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the CVS parking lot—a small wooden box wrapped in brown paper, its label unreadable. Curious, he picked it up and took it inside. Later that day, an elderly lady came in asking for her missing bird cage. Turned out she had accidentally left it outside during her morning walk. Everyone got a good laugh when they realized the ‘mysterious package’ was just someone’s escaped pet.

3. In the late afternoon, when CVS Pharmacy doors were closing for their break, a cashier overheard a customer muttering under their breath. ‘I’ll be back,’ they said, pointing towards the exit sign. The next day, everyone arrived to find a small pile of candy bars and magazines left on the counter—just like the mysterious voice had promised. Soon enough, every time someone mentioned needing something from CVS, people would whisper, ‘Just leave it on the counter!’ And sure enough, every few days, there’d be another stack of gum or pack of batteries magically appearing. Even the manager joined in the fun, leaving behind a box of his favorite cookies one morning. It became such a tradition that no one ever bothered asking who was doing it—they just smiled and waited for the next surprise.

4. In the wee hours of dawn, while most pharmacies slept, a delivery driver wondered aloud: ‘Who’s been stocking CVS Pharmacy at midnight?’ Suddenly, an old lady poked her head out of the nearby apartment and grumbled, 'Oh, that’s easy! It's my cat who keeps bringing home strange packages!' The delivery driver scratched his head, laughing softly as he drove off into the morning sun.
