Walgreens

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, while customers were browsing shelves, an elderly voice crackled over the store’s intercom: ‘If you see a unicorn in the parking lot, don’t panic—we’ve just restocked our rainbow candies.’ The next morning, everyone who heard the announcement was standing around the entrance, eyes fixed on the empty parking space. A delivery driver joked, 'I saw Mr. Rainbow Candy riding away!' Finally, an employee whispered, 'Maybe it was just our new night manager—a unicorn enthusiast.' And they all laughed, realizing that sometimes Walgreens is more magical than we realize.

2. In the early morning hours, when only the night shift pharmacist stirred, a faint humming began to echo through the aisles of Walgreens. It grew louder with each passing minute, like an old record player winding up its final note. Finally, the sound stopped abruptly, leaving everyone puzzled until a sleepy voice said, 'Guess I was just dreaming about that old vinyl collection.' The next day, an anonymous note appeared on the counter: "Dear Night Shift, your favorite album is now playing in the staff room." And so, every once in a while, on quiet nights, you might hear soft music drifting from behind the pharmacy shelves.

3. Have you ever noticed how sometimes Walgreens seems to know exactly what you need before you even ask? One day, a delivery driver asked himself aloud: ‘I wonder if they can tell I’m low on Band-Aids?’ Just then, his phone buzzed with an offer for ‘Band-Aids, Aspirin & More!’ He looked around suspiciously but saw no one. Later that week, he realized it was probably just another lucky coincidence—until his next run low on ibuprofen.

4. At closing time, when the last customer had left and the lights dimmed, a soft humming began to fill the empty aisles of Walgreens. It grew louder as if someone were whispering just beyond the shelves. The whispers took on familiar voices—an old lady asking for her favorite vitamins, a delivery driver complaining about traffic, and even a neighbor suggesting they should get some sleep. Soon enough, the humming faded away, replaced by the gentle beep of the security system. The next morning, everything was back to normal, except maybe one bottle of aspirin seemed slightly out of place.
