About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One day, a regular asked the pharmacist, ‘Do you ever wonder why that old delivery truck always honks its horn exactly three times every morning?’ The pharmacist shrugged and replied, ‘I never thought about it.’ The next morning, just as usual, the truck honked thrice. Suddenly, an elderly neighbor popped out from behind the counter and waved, saying, ‘Morning, everyone! Time for our daily Walgreens symphony!’

2. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the Walgreens parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and tied with string. Nobody seemed to claim it, yet every time he looked back, its position had changed slightly. Finally, out of curiosity, the delivery driver decided to open it himself. Inside was just an old note that read: ‘Thanks for your patience today!’ Turned out, a friendly neighbor had been playing a prank on everyone, leaving little surprise boxes around the store. The whole town ended up having a good laugh over it.

3. In the early hours of dawn, when most Walgreens were quiet and empty, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the parking lot. A small, glowing orb hovered above one of the mailboxes. Curious, he approached it with his flashlight, thinking maybe it was just a reflection or a prank. The orb followed him back inside, hovering over the counter where a regular customer was buying cough drops. Startled, they asked, ‘What’s that thing?’ Turns out, it was just an errant balloon from the nearby elementary school's festival.

4. In the wee hours before sunrise, when even Walgreens seemed half-asleep, a delivery driver noticed an unusual sight in the parking lot—an old man wearing a lab coat was carefully placing small packages into a shopping cart. Curious, the driver followed him inside and found the old man methodically restocking shelves with tiny bottles of aspirin. ‘You’re working way too early,’ he said. The man smiled and replied, ‘Son, I’m not working—they’re just finally waking up.’
