About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Walgreens with an unusual package. As he approached the counter, the pharmacist raised an eyebrow and asked, ‘What’s in that box?’ The delivery driver grinned sheepishly and replied, 'Just some special-order cookies for the staff.' The pharmacist shook his head, but smiled, knowing it was just another late-night Walgreens tradition.

2. Late one night, as a lone pharmacist locked up Walgreens, he heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention customers—we’re out of everything except patience.’ Confused and amused, the pharmacist ignored it, thinking it was just a glitch. Minutes later, another voice came on: 'And if you’re ever in need of aspirin, we apologize—it’s been replaced by understanding.' A delivery driver outside chuckled when he heard the commotion, remarking to his neighbor, 'Guess they’ve run out of everything but good humor tonight!'

3. One morning in Walgreens, a small dog followed its owner inside and started sniffing around the shelves. When a customer reached for a box of Band-Aids, the curious pup leaped onto the counter and began licking them off the display. A nearby delivery driver overheard the commotion and rushed over, thinking someone needed help. To his surprise, he saw only a confused little pooch with a handful of Band-Aids in its mouth. The store manager smiled and said, ‘It’s okay, he does this every time he comes here.’

4. One day, while waiting for his prescription, a regular noticed something strange on the shelf next to him—an old photo album seemed to be flipping pages all by itself. Curious, he leaned in closer and saw an elderly man peering over the counter with a smile. ‘That’s my great-grandma,’ he said, pointing to one of the photos. ‘She used to come here every week.’ The regular laughed, realizing it was just an old family album left behind. As they chatted, the pharmacist called out: “Next!” and the mysterious flipping stopped immediately.
