About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, a delivery driver pulled up to CVS Pharmacy and noticed something odd: every time he opened the van door, a faint humming sound followed him inside. Curious, he followed the sound to the backroom where an old radio was playing soft jazz. Turns out, it was just an ancient tape loop left behind by a regular who used to come in for Band-Aids. The delivery driver smiled, thinking how nice it was that someone had such a soothing way of saying goodbye.

2. One morning, an elderly gentleman entered CVS Pharmacy and asked the cashier, ‘Excuse me, do you sell instant happiness here?’ The cashier smiled and replied, ‘Not officially, sir.’ Just then, a delivery driver walked up and said, 'Sir, I can help with that—try our new mood-lifting energy drink!' Everyone burst out laughing, including the old man who exclaimed, 'Thank heavens for small miracles!'

3. At dawn, a jogger passing by CVS Pharmacy caught an unusual scent—a faint whiff of freshly brewed coffee wafting from behind the closed doors. Curious, the jogger slowed down and peered through the glass door. Inside, in the dim light, stood an old man wearing a lab coat, humming softly as he arranged packets of sugar on the counter. Turns out, it was just a delivery driver testing out the new espresso machine before opening hours—an early morning prank that became the talk of the neighborhood.

4. At sunset, a little girl ran into her mom, pointing excitedly at CVS Pharmacy. ‘Mommy, why is that dog talking?’ ‘Oh honey,’ said her mom, smiling. ‘That’s not really a talking dog—it’s just our friendly neighborhood pharmacist, Mr. Jenkins, waving goodbye.’ The little girl giggled and waved back, while Mr. Jenkins winked at them both from behind his counter. As they walked away, she whispered to her mom, ‘But mommy, he did say “have a nice day”!’
