Kroger Pharmacy

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular noticed an old, dusty bottle of cough syrup on the pharmacy counter. He picked it up curiously—it had no label and seemed to be from another era. When he took a sip, he suddenly found himself transported back to the 1950s, where everyone wore hats and drove convertibles. After wandering around for a while, our curious customer stumbled upon a soda fountain and ordered a milkshake. The flavor was like nothing he'd ever tasted before—rich, creamy, and just right. When he returned to the present, he discovered that his favorite candy bar now came in that exact same flavor. Needless to say, Kroger's sales skyrocketed after that day.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Kroger Pharmacy with a mysterious package marked ‘Do Not Open.’ As he approached the door, he heard a voice whispering from inside: ‘Please hurry… it’s almost midnight!’ Curious, he opened the package just as the clock struck twelve—revealing nothing but an old calendar. Startled, he looked around and saw an elderly pharmacist smiling wryly behind the counter. ‘Ah,’ she said, ‘you’re late for our annual midnight tradition!’

3. One day, while waiting for her prescription, an elderly lady whispered to her friend, ‘Did you see that strange man counting pills behind the counter?’ Her friend nodded solemnly and replied, ‘Yes, I saw him too. He looked like he was counting them three times!’ They both laughed softly, knowing it was just another quirky moment in their routine visits. The pharmacist eventually emerged from the back room with a smile, saying cheerfully, “Everything’s squared away!”

4. In the early hours of the morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Kroger Pharmacy and noticed something peculiar. The usually quiet parking lot was filled with the eerie hum of an unseen instrument, like distant bagpipes playing a mournful tune. Curious, he approached the source of the sound and found an old radio left on in the pharmacy’s office. It played a continuous loop of Scottish folk music, much to everyone's amusement when they finally realized what had happened. From then on, locals joked that Kroger Pharmacy kept ‘round-the-clock bagpipe therapy’ for its customers.
