About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Safeway Pharmacy, customers started noticing something strange—why did every delivery driver seem to leave with more bags than they arrived with? Soon enough, people began joking that Safeway Pharmacy must be running a secret underground grocery club. A regular even confided, ‘I’ve seen drivers leaving with so much stuff it looks like they’re stocking up for an apocalypse!’ Turns out, it was just one overzealous manager who loved giving extra discounts on bulk orders.

2. At Safeway Pharmacy, a regular customer overheard an unusual conversation between two delivery drivers one night. ‘Did you see that same old lady buying aspirin again?’ said one driver. ‘No kidding,’ replied the other. ‘She must own stock in this place.’ Finally, another driver chimed in with a smile: ‘Hey, maybe she’s just really good at predicting when we’ll run out!’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing they might be the ones who should invest in Safeway stock.

3. At Safeway Pharmacy, after hours when everyone had left, a curious child noticed that the security lights seemed to follow him wherever he walked in the parking lot. Curious, the kid ran towards one of the lights, only for it to turn off and another one to flicker on across the lot. Startled, he looked around but saw no one else—just the shadowy figures dancing in the reflection of the windows. Finally, an older delivery driver emerged from the pharmacy door, yawned, and said, ‘Kids these days,’ before heading back inside. The kid sheepishly waved goodbye and went home, realizing that maybe Safeway’s security lights were just trying to keep an eye out for everyone’s safety.

4. At Safeway Pharmacy, late one night, a neighborhood dog began barking furiously outside the closed doors. No one could figure out why until they saw the neon sign flickering oddly from within. Curious, an elderly a regular peeked inside and noticed that the pharmacist was humming along to some old tune on his radio while mixing up prescriptions upside down. ‘What’s going on here?’ asked everyone collectively. Turns out, the power had gone off, and he was just trying to keep things running with his trusty Walkman.’
