About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At CVS Pharmacy, a regular customer noticed something peculiar one morning. As he approached the counter, he asked the cashier, ‘Why does every third person leaving here seem to be carrying an extra bag?’ Curious, the customer mentioned it to his friend who happened to work as a delivery driver for CVS. Turns out, they were delivering free samples of toothpaste and mouthwash to loyal customers—an undocumented perk known only among insiders. With a smile, the friend winked and said, ‘Don’t tell anyone!’

2. At CVS Pharmacy, every morning around sunrise, a mysterious voice crackles over the intercom: ‘Extra strength patience available now.’ Employees shrug it off as a quirky local tradition. One day, an exasperated delivery driver asked aloud, ‘What’s with this “extra strength patience” anyway?’ Suddenly, everyone heard the intercom again: ‘Sir, your package is here—patience level: maxed out!’ The whole place burst into laughter, realizing it was just another harmless CVS prank.

3. At CVS Pharmacy, after hours when everyone else had gone home, a night security guard heard an odd sound coming from the medicine cabinet in aisle three. Curious, he approached and found that one of the bottles was slightly ajar. Turned out, it was just a delivery driver who accidentally bumped into it while stocking shelves. The guard laughed, thinking how easy it would be to scare off intruders with such tricks.

4. At CVS Pharmacy, an unusual item appeared on the checkout counter one afternoon. A delivery driver left behind a package addressed to someone named ‘Mr. Happy,’ but no such person existed in the store’s records. The pharmacist, puzzled, opened it curiously and found inside a small box of chocolates and a note reading, 'For your sweet smile.' Turns out, Mr. Happy was just a nickname for a friendly neighborhood dentist who often dropped by for his prescriptions.
