About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to Walgreens and noticed an odd sound coming from inside the pharmacy's loading bay. It was like someone humming softly but out of tune—almost like a melody only animals could understand. Curious, he peered inside and saw an old cat sitting on a box, its eyes fixed on some mysterious object. The cat stopped humming when it saw him, then jumped down and scurried away with something tiny in its mouth. The next day, everyone in town knew that Walgreens had adopted a new mascot—a quiet, musical feline named Melody.

2. One morning, a regular asked the pharmacist, ‘Why do I always see people leaving Walgreens with bags of ice?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, 'Well, sir, it's because they buy our famous ice packs—perfect for keeping their groceries fresh!' The regular nodded, then added, 'Oh, I get it now.' A few days later, he returned with an empty bag of ice and joked, “Guess my fridge is working too well!”

3. One afternoon, a customer exclaimed to the cashier, 'I just saw someone buying three bottles of cough syrup!' The cashier raised an eyebrow and replied, ‘Really? And you’re sure it wasn’t our regular who buys three bottles every week?’ The customer shook his head, laughing. ‘No way,’ he said, ‘he’s too nice for that!’

4. One day, while stocking shelves in the early hours, a young employee heard a strange rustling sound coming from behind the counter. Curious, she peered around the corner and saw only an old bag of chips slowly sliding off the shelf. With a smile, she picked it up and placed it back neatly. Turns out, it was just a delivery driver playing a prank on her. Since then, whenever anyone mentions ‘Walgreens,’ they always add, ‘and the talking chips!’
