About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, a little boy walked into Kroger Pharmacy and pointed at an empty shelf, asking his mom, ‘Mommy, why is there no bubble gum today?’ The pharmacist looked around, puzzled, but then noticed that every chewing-gum machine in the store had suddenly gone silent. Suddenly, an old lady approached the counter, saying she needed her daily dose of throat lozenges. The pharmacist smiled and asked if anyone else wanted some free candy. Everyone laughed as he opened the nearest jar, revealing rows upon rows of colorful gumballs.
2. At night, when the Kroger Pharmacy was almost empty, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the counter: a small bottle labeled ‘Liquid Courage.’ Curious, he picked it up and heard a faint voice whispering, ‘Just one shot before you leave…’ The delivery driver shook his head, poured himself a tiny sip, and felt a sudden urge to dance. By morning, everyone in the neighborhood knew that Kroger Pharmacy sold liquid courage—just enough for one brave adventure!
3. At dawn, a neighborhood cat began visiting Kroger Pharmacy every morning. The pharmacist noticed it one day as he unlocked the door. Curious, he watched from behind the counter as the cat approached the shelves, sniffed at bottles, then sat down and stared intently at a display of vitamins. Finally curious, the pharmacist picked up a bottle of vitamin C and pretended to pop a pill. To everyone’s surprise—including his own—the cat leaped off its perch, snatched the bottle mid-air, and ran out like a champion racer! Since that day, neighbors joke that Kroger Pharmacy has the best ‘customer loyalty program’ in town.
4. At closing time, a delivery driver locked up Kroger Pharmacy and headed for the door. Suddenly, he heard a soft voice whispering behind him: ‘Don’t forget your keys!’ The driver spun around but saw no one. He shrugged it off, thinking maybe his imagination was playing tricks on him. As he reached for the door handle, he felt something cold touch his shoulder. Startled, he turned back—and there stood an old bottle of aspirin, its label gently reminding him, 'Don’t Forget Your Keys!'
