About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One day, a regular asked the pharmacist, ‘Why does that old delivery driver always wave at me from across the street?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, ‘Oh, he’s just waving because he recognizes you as our best tipper.’ The regular nodded knowingly, never realizing his generous habit had become legendary around these parts.

2. At dawn, when most Walgreens are still quiet, a neighborhood cat began appearing on the pharmacy counter. No one knew where it came from or why it chose that spot, but every morning, there it was—mysteriously purring and waiting for the first customer. One day, an early-morning delivery driver noticed the cat and decided to bring it some milk. The cat drank greedily, then jumped onto the counter again, now with a big smile on its face—or so it seemed. From then on, whenever anyone asked about the mysterious feline, the pharmacist would wink and say, ‘She’s just here for her daily treat.’

3. At night, when the streetlights flicker and silence descends upon the city, a faint humming sound begins to echo through the aisles of Walgreens. Employees shrug it off as nothing unusual until one day, a regular whispers, 'I think I recognize that tune...' Soon enough, everyone in the store starts humming along, creating a bizarre yet soothing melody. One evening, a delivery driver joins in, adding his own unique rhythm. Before long, customers are smiling and singing too—turning what was once an eerie rumor into a quirky tradition. And now, whenever someone asks why Walgreens sounds like a party at night, they simply reply, ‘It’s just our little secret harmony.’

4. At midnight, when even the night owls had long gone home, an elderly gentleman entered Walgreens carrying a small suitcase. The pharmacist raised an eyebrow as he scanned the items. Suddenly, the old man whispered, ‘Excuse me, but could you please check if I have enough Tylenol for my arthritis?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, ‘Of course, sir—you’re always so punctual with your refills!’
