About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to CVS Pharmacy and noticed something odd: every time he opened the door, a faint humming sound would follow him inside, growing louder with each step. Finally, the delivery driver realized that the hum was coming from his own phone vibrating in his pocket. Embarrassed but relieved, he laughed it off, thinking how strange it must look for someone to enter a pharmacy with a glowing cellphone. Back home, his neighbor teased him about being ‘too busy checking prices’ while everyone else slept.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to CVS Pharmacy and noticed an unusual item in the parking lot—a shopping cart filled with boxes of band-aids, each labeled with different colors and sizes. Curious, he approached closer only to see a note taped to the handle: ‘Take what you need, leave what you can.’ As he picked through the colorful assortment, someone called out from behind him, ‘Hey, do you need help finding anything?’ It was just a regular customer, who’d been standing there watching him curiously. The delivery guy laughed it off, saying, “Just looking for some first aid inspiration!” They ended up chatting until closing time, discovering they lived in the same neighborhood.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to CVS Pharmacy and noticed an old lady standing outside, muttering, ‘Why won’t you open for just five more minutes?’ The delivery driver smiled and said, 'Ma’am, I’ll deliver your medicine right now.' He quickly ran inside, grabbed her prescription, and rushed back out. The old lady beamed, thanked him warmly, and disappeared into the night. From then on, whenever anyone asked why CVS never closed completely, locals would whisper, 'Because they’re always delivering happiness!'

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to CVS Pharmacy and noticed an unusual sign in the window: ‘Closed for Emergency Sleepover.’ Curious passersby asked, ‘What kind of emergency?’ Inside, a sleep-deprived pharmacist yawned and mumbled something about a miscommunication. The delivery driver laughed it off, thinking nothing of it until he saw the same sign the next day—and then again the day after that. Eventually, neighbors started bringing their pets over for 'emergency sleepovers,' turning CVS into the unofficial neighborhood nap center.
