About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Walgreens with an urgent package. As he approached the counter, he noticed something odd—all the clocks had stopped exactly at 12:08 AM. The cashier looked puzzled and said, 'Weird, that clock’s been stuck like that for years.' The delivery driver shrugged it off and left, only to discover upon returning home that his own clock was now frozen at 12:08 too. Turns out, it wasn’t Walgreens—it was just his watch that needed new batteries.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Walgreens with an urgent package. As he approached the counter, a regular customer, dozing in his chair, muttered something strange. ‘I said, “Open wide,”’” the old guy mumbled, drooling slightly. The delivery driver blinked twice and replied calmly, “Ma’am, I’m here for insulin—not dental work.” They both laughed, and the customer finally woke up with a startled expression.

3. One morning in Walgreens, a small dog ran into the store, barking excitedly as he chased his tail around the aisles. The regulars watched, amused, until they noticed something odd—every time the dog circled past the aspirin section, he stopped and sniffed intensely. Finally, an old lady approached the counter and asked the cashier, ‘Excuse me, but why is that little dog so interested in your aspirin?’ The cashier smiled and replied, ‘Oh, he’s just checking for fresh stock before buying one himself.’

4. One day, while browsing shelves after school, a curious kid noticed something odd: every time he passed by the candy aisle, a pack of gum seemed to move just slightly out of reach. Finally, one afternoon, an old lady asked if she could help him. The boy nodded shyly and pointed towards the elusive gum. To everyone’s surprise, when she picked up the package, it was exactly where it had been all along—right next to its twin! From then on, kids knew not to worry; sometimes things aren’t as mysterious as they seem.
