About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the shelves were almost empty and only a few customers lingered, an old voice came over the store’s intercom: ‘If you see a unicorn in the parking lot, don’t panic—just pay for your items as usual.’ One night, a delivery driver mentioned it to his friend, who spread the story online. Soon, people started coming to Walgreens just to catch a glimpse of the mythical creature. The manager, however, remained calm and simply said, 'Just pay for your items, and we'll take care of the unicorn.'

2. In the early morning, when the store was nearly deserted, a little girl pointed excitedly at an aisle. Her mother looked puzzled until she saw it too—a shadowy figure moving among the medicine bottles. As they approached curiously, the shadow turned out to be just an old man bending over to pick up his dropped glasses. He sheepishly smiled and said, ‘Oh, sorry for scaring you! I’m just a regular guy getting some aspirin.’ The little girl giggled, and everyone had a good laugh.

3. Late one afternoon, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes in the back room, he heard an odd voice over the intercom: ‘Please return your shopping cart to the front entrance.’ Curious, the driver followed the sound and found an old shopping cart slowly rolling down the aisle, its wheels clicking like a metronome. He pushed it outside, only for another voice to say, 'And don't forget to take that umbrella!' Turning around, he saw nothing but empty shelves and a dusty mirror reflecting his own confused face. From then on, locals joked that Walgreens had hired invisible shoppers.

4. Late one night, while the pharmacist was closing up shop, he heard an unusual humming sound coming from behind the counter. Curious, he peered around and saw a small, sleepy turtle slowly crawling out from under the cash register. The pharmacist smiled, picked it up gently, and placed it outside. Later that week, his neighbor brought over a basket of fresh tomatoes as thanks for saving her little friend. It turned out the turtle was quite the local celebrity.
