A few stories people tell about this place

1. In Lloyds Pharmacy, late one night, a regular asked the pharmacist with a puzzled expression: ‘Why does the same old lady always buy band-aids in bulk?’ The pharmacist shrugged and replied, ‘She’s preparing for an apocalypse, I guess.’ Just then, a delivery driver walked in, holding a box of Band-Aids. The old lady smiled and said, “Finally, you’re here! My stock was running low.” Everyone burst out laughing, realizing that maybe she WAS ready for anything.

2. In an old Lloyds Pharmacy in New England, after hours when everyone had gone home, a small dog would occasionally appear from nowhere. It always approached the counter, sniffing curiously at the bottles and boxes, then disappeared just as mysteriously. One night, a delivery driver noticed the dog and decided to follow it outside. To his surprise, the little pooch led him to a hidden garden full of herbs and flowers. The next morning, the pharmacist found a note on the counter: ‘Thanks for your great service—your herbal teas are fantastic! Signed, our furry friend.’

3. In Lloyds Pharmacy, a small dog once ran into the store, barking frantically and pointing towards the shelves. The surprised staff looked where he was pointing—and found nothing but empty boxes. Suddenly, an elderly gentleman entered, holding a bag of groceries. He asked, ‘Did anyone see my little terrier?’ A staff member replied, ‘He’s right here!’ They both laughed as the dog wagged his tail, proudly displaying a tiny shopping list tied around his collar.

4. In Lloyds Pharmacy, during a routine inventory check, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar: every time he placed boxes on the counter, they mysteriously rearranged themselves before his eyes. Curious, he asked an elderly pharmacist who happened to be passing by. With a twinkle in her eye, she smiled and said, ‘That’s our resident mischief-maker, Mr. Shuffleton. He’s been playing pranks here since I started working thirty years ago.’ The delivery driver left with a smile, knowing that Lloyds Pharmacy had just another friendly ghostly inhabitant.
