About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One day, a regular asked the pharmacist, ‘Why does it smell like cookies every time I come here?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, 'Oh, that's because our delivery driver always brings an extra box of chocolate chip cookies for good luck.' The regular nodded knowingly, thinking he was in on the secret until one day he saw the delivery guy discreetly tossing the cookies into the trashcan before entering the store.

2. In the early hours of morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Cardinal Health and noticed something odd. The parking lot was bathed in an eerie glow that seemed to come from within the building itself. Curious, he approached the door, which opened with a soft hiss. Inside, the shelves were illuminated by a faint blue light, making everything look like it was made of candy. A voice called out: ‘Can I help you, sir?’ Startled, our hero replied, ‘Just checking if you’re open.’ The pharmacist smiled warmly and said, “We close at dawn, but we’re always here for emergencies!’

3. While waiting for her prescription one afternoon, a neighbor whispered to another customer, 'Did you hear that Cardinal Health now sells more Band-Aids than aspirin?' Another customer overheard and laughed, ‘Really? Then I guess they must be making a fortune on those tiny bandaids for paper cuts!’ Just then, an elderly gentleman approached the counter and asked for ‘two boxes of Band-Aids, please—one for my hands and one for my ears.’ Everyone burst out laughing.

4. While picking up her monthly supply of vitamins, an elderly lady paused and asked the pharmacist curiously, ‘Do you think I’m the only person in town who gets dizzy when they see those bright red capsules?’ The pharmacist smiled and shook his head. ‘Oh no, ma’am,’ he replied. ‘It’s not just you—half our customers get queasy around those reds.’ Just then, a delivery driver walked in complaining, ‘I feel like throwing up every time I see that neon yellow bottle!’ The old lady laughed heartily, realizing she wasn’t alone in her colorful struggles.
