About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Walgreens on Main Street, a regular customer always asked for ‘the usual’—until one day he said, ‘I think they finally ran out of my usual.’ Since then, employees swear they see him standing in line even when no one’s there. One morning, a delivery driver mentioned that his truck was low on gas and asked if anyone had some change for fuel. The ghostly figure nodded knowingly, reached into thin air, and produced a crumpled dollar bill. Everyone laughed it off until the next week, when the same driver found an exact amount of cash waiting for him inside the store.
2. At dawn, when most Walgreens are still closed, a delivery driver noticed something unusual: the parking lot was full of bikes, but no customers were around. Curious, he approached one bike and found a note attached: ‘Sorry for the inconvenience, our store is closed today for maintenance.’ The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and rode off—only to see the same bikes disappear into the nearby park as soon as he turned the corner.
3. At night, when Walgreens was closing up, a delivery driver noticed an odd package in the loading bay. Curious, he picked it up—and found himself holding a bag full of strange items: old newspapers wrapped around a bottle of aspirin. The delivery driver shook his head, puzzled. He opened one paper and read an article from twenty years ago. Just as he was about to throw everything away, a familiar voice called out from behind him.
‘Hey, you got my newspaper!’ said a regular customer from down the street.
They both laughed, and the delivery driver realized that sometimes Walgreens delivers more than just medicine.’
4. At Walgreens in downtown Chicago, late one night after hours, a delivery driver found a mysterious note taped inside the door: ‘Open only if you’re not afraid of what might be inside.’ Curious, he opened it carefully—and discovered a handwritten message: 'Free samples tonight!' Turns out, someone had accidentally left a flyer from the weekly promotion. The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and thought, ‘Next time I’ll check for coupons before checking for ghosts.’
