About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the shelves were nearly empty and only a lone pharmacist remained behind the counter, customers began reporting hearing an eerie voice over the store’s intercom. ‘Next in line… take two aspirin and call me in the morning,’ it would say, always with a hint of laughter in its tone. One day, an elderly neighbor walked in, complaining about his bad dreams. The pharmacist smiled knowingly and said, 'That’s because you’re taking too many sleeping pills.' The old man looked confused until he realized—every night, the intercom had been whispering, 'Take one less pill!'

2. Late one afternoon, as a delivery driver pulled up outside Walgreens, he noticed something peculiar: an eerie humming sound seemed to be coming from inside the pharmacy's darkened windows. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only shadows—until a familiar voice called out: ‘Hey, delivery guy! I’m almost done here!’ Turned out it was just an old pharmacist finishing his crossword puzzle. The end result? A free candy bar for the delivery driver.

3. Late one morning, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes in front of Walgreens, he heard an unusual announcement over the store’s PA system: ‘Attention, neighbors! We’ve run out of Band-Aids again—please bring your own injuries!’ The delivery driver looked around puzzled but then grinned. A regular customer, noticing his confusion, waved him inside with a smile and said, 'They're just having their weekly sense-of-humor day.' Everyone laughed, and life went on as usual—except now everyone brought their own Band-Aids.

4. Late one morning, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes in front of Walgreens, he heard an unusual sound coming from inside the store. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a small gray cat sitting on the counter, calmly licking its paws. The cashier, a friendly old lady named ‘Mrs. Jenkins,’ smiled and said, “Oh, that’s just our little neighborhood visitor. He comes every now and then for some treats.” The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and thought to himself, ‘Next time I’ll definitely bring catnip.’
