About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At CVS Pharmacy, a regular customer complained one day: ‘Why do I always see the same old lady checking out my prescriptions?’ The pharmacist shrugged and replied, ‘She’s our newest employee.’ A few days later, an elderly neighbor walked in with a worried look on her face. ‘I can’t believe it!’ she exclaimed. ‘That young woman just filled my insulin prescription with chocolate syrup!’ The pharmacist smiled and said, ‘Don’t worry ma’am, she’ll get the hang of it eventually.’

2. At CVS Pharmacy, every morning around sunrise, employees started noticing something peculiar—a faint, familiar tune playing softly from behind the counter. No radio was on, and no one admitted to bringing their phone in. Yet, there it was, growing louder each week. Finally, someone confessed: an old cassette tape of classic rock had been left under the counter by a delivery driver weeks ago. Every morning, as the sun rose, the tape’s weak battery would hum out ‘Wonderful Life’ by Simon & Garfunkel. Employees pretended it was a ghostly message until they found the source—laughing so hard that even customers joined in.

3. At CVS Pharmacy, during late-night deliveries, a mysterious voice began whispering from empty aisles. Employees swore it was just their imagination until they heard someone calling for Band-Aids at 3 AM. One night, while restocking shelves, an old lady appeared out of nowhere and asked for her usual: ‘Got any cough drops, dear?’ No one had seen her before or since then. The staff now joke that she’s the pharmacy’s resident ghost customer.

4. At CVS Pharmacy, an elderly gentleman approached the counter one afternoon and asked, 'Do you ever get customers who suddenly disappear into thin air?' The pharmacist smiled and replied, ‘Oh yes, sir, that happens quite often.’ The old man nodded knowingly, then reached for his prescription. Just as he did, a young delivery driver rushed in, nearly knocking over a stack of bottles. Startled, everyone looked up—only to see the old gentleman calmly walking out the door, leaving behind just his empty wheelchair.
