About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the shelves were almost empty and only a lone pharmacist remained, customers began reporting hearing an unfamiliar voice over the intercom. ‘Next in line: your lucky day!’ it would say, just before the cash register rang on its own. One evening, an elderly neighbor walked in and heard the intercom crackle to life again. This time it said, 'Next in line: two bags of groceries or one prescription?' The pharmacist looked around confused—there was no one else there. Then they realized with a smile that their own cart had been mysteriously added to the queue.

2. At Walgreens late one night, an exhausted delivery driver muttered, ‘I’ve never seen so many bottles of sleep aids.’ Suddenly, a friendly pharmacist poked his head out and grinned, ‘Maybe they’re not sleeping pills—maybe it’s just our new stock of energy drinks for the night shift!’ The driver laughed, shaking his head, as he drove off into the early morning.

3. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes in the dimly lit parking lot, he swore he heard a faint humming coming from inside the store. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man counting pencils on the shelf, muttering something about ‘three for a dollar.’ The driver shook his head, smiled, and thought, ‘Next time I’ll bring my own flashlight.’

4. At Walgreens late one night, a sleepy delivery driver yawned, ‘Why do I always get these heavy boxes?’ Suddenly, an old lady appeared from behind the counter with a smile and said, 'Honey, those aren't boxes—those are bags of ice for our freezer!' The delivery driver blinked, rubbed his eyes, and laughed. 'Thanks ma’am,' he replied, 'I’ll be more careful next time.'
