About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In an ordinary Walgreens pharmacy, after hours when everyone else had gone home, a regular noticed something peculiar. Every night, just as he approached the checkout counter, a small dog would appear from behind the shelves and dash towards him, wagging its tail excitedly. One night, a delivery driver arrived to stock the shelves. The dog dashed over, jumped onto his feet, and started licking his face. Startled, the driver looked around but saw no one else. Then, from inside a box of Band-Aids, came a tiny voice: ‘Don’t be scared, sir! I’m just trying to say hello!’

2. In a quiet corner of the Walgreens pharmacy, late one night, a delivery driver noticed something unusual on the security camera feed. A shadowy figure kept appearing in front of the pain reliever aisle, whispering softly into empty bottles. Curious, he played it back again and again until he saw it clearly—a neighborhood cat, meowing into the bottles as if they were little microphones. The next day, everyone in town knew that Walgreens was now home to the world's most talkative aspirin.

3. At closing time in the Walgreens pharmacy, a young pharmacist overheard a customer muttering under their breath. ‘Why does it always rain on Sundays?’ Smiling politely, the pharmacist replied, “Because God knows you’ve got enough to carry already.” The customer cracked a smile and left, while the pharmacist turned back to see an old neighbor pushing a grocery cart filled with umbrellas.

4. In a small town Walgreens, a regular noticed something peculiar on the pharmacy counter one morning—an old photo album, seemingly left behind by someone in a hurry. Curious, he flipped through pages until finding himself staring at a picture of an adorable golden retriever puppy. Suddenly, a delivery driver approached and asked if anyone had seen his dog that morning. Turns out, the photo album belonged to him—and so did the puppy now sniffing around the counter.
