CVS Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to CVS Pharmacy and exclaimed, 'I think I just delivered the wrong package!' The pharmacist raised an eyebrow and asked, ‘What did you deliver?’ The driver replied sheepishly, ‘A box of condoms labeled as heartburn medication.’ They both burst out laughing, and the neighbor who heard it all from his porch joined in too. It turned out to be one of those nights when everyone left with a smile.

2. At midnight, an elderly woman walked into CVS Pharmacy, startling the night clerk. ‘Excuse me,’ she said, pointing to a sign above the counter, ‘but does this really mean “Closed for Your Convenience”?’ The night clerk smiled and nodded, ‘Absolutely ma’am, that’s exactly what it means.’ Just then, another customer—a delivery driver—walked in, groggy from his shift. He looked at the sign and asked, ‘Does that mean I can come back tomorrow?’ Everyone burst out laughing as the old lady winked at the clerk and whispered, ‘Of course he can!’

3. At dawn, a small dog ran into the CVS Pharmacy, barking frantically at the shelves of Band-Aids. The night clerk looked on, amused but puzzled. Just then, an elderly gentleman approached the counter with a worried expression. ‘I heard there’s a lost puppy,’ he said. After some confusion and a quick search, it turned out the dog was just looking for his owner—who happened to be the delivery driver waiting outside.’ The whole store erupted in laughter as everyone realized the furry intruder had merely been following its nose to a free treat.

4. At closing time, a security guard noticed something odd on the store’s intercom: ‘CVS Pharmacy is now closed for the day. Please do not enter unless you’re here to stay.’ Curious, he picked up his phone and replied, ‘Who am I supposed to stay with?’ There was no answer. Just the sound of an empty pharmacy. The next morning, everyone found out that CVS had installed automated doors that played recorded messages when locked. A regular came in, shook his head, and said, ‘Guess they didn’t want any late-night visitors.’
