About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular noticed an unusual item in the pharmacy’s return bin—a small, sealed box labeled ‘Top Secret.’ Curious, he picked it up and found no tags or notes explaining its origin. He opened it carefully, only to discover a tiny bottle of cough syrup with a note reading: ‘For emergencies only—do not use!’ Turns out, it was someone’s forgotten sample. The regular laughed it off, shaking his head as he walked away, muttering something about pharmacists’ sense of humor.

2. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to Rite Aid and asked the pharmacist with a puzzled look: ‘Did you order a crate of marshmallow peeps for Easter?’ The pharmacist shook his head and replied, 'No, I didn’t.' Just then, an elderly lady walked in and said, 'I ordered those peeps for my great-grandchildren’s Easter basket!' Everyone laughed, and the delivery driver left with a smile, thinking it was one of life’s little mysteries.

3. A neighbor popped into Rite Aid one afternoon for some band-aids. As she waited in line, she couldn’t help but notice that the cashier kept glancing at something on her screen with a strange smile. Finally, the cashier rang up the sale and said, ‘That’ll be five dollars.’ The neighbor paid and left, never realizing that the cashier had been secretly watching a funny video of a delivery driver dancing to old-school rap while waiting for his package.

4. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Rite Aid with a truckload of supplies. As he unloaded boxes, he noticed something odd—an old, dusty teddy bear sitting on top of one crate. Curious, he picked it up and saw an old note attached: ‘To whoever finds me, please return me to Mrs. Johnson next door.’ Turns out, it was her grandson’s lost toy from years ago. The delivery driver smiled as he handed it over, thinking that maybe Rite Aid had just made someone’s day brighter.
