1. A regular customer at CVS Pharmacy noticed something peculiar one morning. ‘Hey,’ he said to the pharmacist, ‘why does every third person who leaves here seem to be carrying an extra bag?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, ‘Oh, that’s because they’re all buying three packs of batteries at once.’ The regular laughed and shook his head, realizing it was just another day at CVS Pharmacy.
2. A delivery driver asked a colleague at CVS Pharmacy: ‘Did you hear? The pharmacist started talking to himself in the middle of the night.’ ‘No, I didn’t,’ said his colleague sleepily. ‘Probably just another one of those newfangled robotics they got.’ They both laughed, and the next morning everything was back to normal—except for an oddly empty aisle where the late-night pharmacist had been stocking shelves.
3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside CVS Pharmacy and heard an odd humming sound. Curious, he peeked inside through the window—only to see a glowing sign that seemed to pulse in rhythm with the noise. Curious, he knocked on the door, but no one answered. Inside, the sign continued its eerie glow. Deciding to investigate further, he opened the door just a crack—and promptly fell backwards as a friendly pharmacist waved cheerfully from behind the counter. ‘Oh, hi!’ she said brightly. ‘We’ve been open all night for you.’
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside CVS Pharmacy and heard an unusual announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention, neighbors! We’re out of Band-Aids in every size!’ The delivery driver looked around puzzled but then noticed a sign: 'Band-Aids on order—will be back soon!' He smiled and drove off, thinking, ‘Next time I’ll bring some extra Band-Aids as a gift.’
