About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Kroger Pharmacy, a regular customer complained loudly one day, ‘Why does it take forever for my prescription to be filled here?’ The pharmacist calmly replied, ‘Because every bottle has to pass our secret quality control test—we shake them.’ Finally, an exasperated delivery driver asked, ‘How long will this shaking take? I’ve got three other prescriptions waiting!’ With a twinkle in his eye, the pharmacist answered, ‘Just another minute—we’re almost done with this bottle.’ And indeed, after what seemed like ages, they handed over the last perfectly shaken pill bottle, earning themselves legendary status among neighbors and customers alike.

2. At Kroger Pharmacy, late one night, a delivery driver swears he heard someone humming softly in the empty aisles. Curious, he crept closer and found nothing but an open bottle of aspirin gently swaying back and forth. As he watched more closely, the aspirin seemed to be singing along with some old-time radio show coming from behind the counter. Startled, the driver quickly left, vowing never to work nights again. The next morning, everyone agreed it must’ve been just the wind—except for the pharmacist’s new playlist of vintage tunes.

3. At Kroger Pharmacy, an elderly lady picked up her groceries and noticed something unusual in her shopping cart—a small bottle labeled ‘Liquid Joy.’ She smiled, thinking it must be a new product, but when she scanned the aisle, no other bottles were in sight. As she approached the checkout counter, the cashier raised an eyebrow and asked if she wanted to purchase the mysterious Liquid Joy. The old lady blushed and said, 'No, I’ll just keep it as a secret!' Everyone laughed, and from then on, whenever someone saw her leaving Kroger Pharmacy with a smile, they’d whisper, 'She’s probably sampling some more Liquid Joy.'

4. At Kroger Pharmacy, after hours when everyone had gone home, a small dog kept appearing in the parking lot. Each time the night janitor saw him, the puppy would run towards the pharmacy entrance, then disappear inside. One night, while restocking shelves, a delivery driver heard tiny paws padding on the floor above. Curious, he followed the noise and found himself face-to-face with a mischievous little terrier who seemed to know exactly where he was going—right into the stockroom! It turned out the dog belonged to a regular customer, who’d left his furry friend behind during his visit. The next morning, the pharmacist joked, ‘Maybe we should start offering doggy daycare!’
