About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular asked the pharmacist, ‘Why does that old lady always stand in front of aisle seven?’ The pharmacist shrugged and replied, ‘She’s just waiting for her pills to get married.’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the old lady herself who turned out to be a regular customer with a great sense of humor.

2. A curious customer once asked the pharmacist: ‘Why do they always leave the same bag of groceries outside your door?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, 'Oh, that's not groceries at all—those are our daily deliveries for the hospital across the street.' A regular overheard and laughed, saying, 'So every day you get a new mystery package!' The pharmacist shook his head with a smile, knowing that some things in life will always remain just a little bit mysterious.

3. At night, when the pharmacy was almost empty, a little dog would appear outside the window, staring intently at the closed door. Employees noticed it one day and wondered who owned such an eagerly waiting pooch. One evening, a delivery driver mentioned seeing the same small dog every time he dropped off supplies. Turned out, the dog belonged to none other than the pharmacist’s cat-sitting neighbor, who had mistakenly let her pet out through the front door instead of the back gate. The next morning, everyone laughed when they saw the note on the door: ‘Dear Kroger staff, sorry for my doggie friend hanging around—she thought your pharmacy was our vet!’

4. In the early hours of one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Kroger Pharmacy with a strange package. As he approached the counter, the pharmacist’s eyes widened when he saw what was inside—a tiny, perfectly folded note reading: ‘Please deliver this to Mr. Johnson.’ The pharmacist shrugged and said, 'Mr. Johnson must be expecting some pretty unusual mail!' He laughed and sent the driver on his way. Later that day, an elderly gentleman popped into the pharmacy, asked for his usual prescription, then casually mentioned, 'By the way, I ordered a small folding chair too.' Everyone burst out laughing—turns out Mr. Johnson had been waiting for a new porch swing.
