About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the shelves were almost empty and only a few customers lingered, an old man started visiting Walgreens every week. He’d quietly peruse the aisles, then suddenly stop in front of the candy section. His grandson, waiting outside, would watch curiously as the old man whispered something to each piece of candy before placing them back on the shelf. Finally, one evening after weeks of observing this strange routine, a delivery driver overheard him whispering, ‘Chocolate you grow fast, gum keeps you young, but bubblegum makes you fly tonight!’ The next morning, everyone found the entire candy display rearranged into alphabetical order.

2. In the early morning hours, when Walgreens’ aisles were dimly lit and mostly deserted, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in one of the shopping carts. A small plastic dinosaur, seemingly abandoned among the bottles of aspirin and toothpaste. Curious, he picked it up and found an old note stuck inside its belly: ‘Founder’s special—one free ice cream cone with any purchase!’ Turns out, it was part of a secret promotional stunt no one had told him about. The rest of his shift became a game of spotting hidden dinosaurs around the store.

3. In the early morning hours, when Walgreens’ aisles were dimly lit and mostly deserted, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the shelf: a small sign that read ‘Antidote for lost dreams – ask the pharmacist.’ Curious, he approached the counter, only to hear an old lady whispering to herself: 'Just one pill per dream, honey.' The pharmacist smiled knowingly and said, 'That’s our new sleep aid—guaranteed to help you forget your worries!' The delivery driver left, shaking his head with a smile, thinking it was another quirky Walgreens tale.

4. In the early morning hours, when Walgreens’ aisles were dimly lit and mostly deserted, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the pharmacy’s backroom. Upon closer inspection, he saw a small green lizard lazily sunning itself on an old medicine bottle. Startled, the lizard darted behind some boxes of aspirin, causing the delivery driver to laugh out loud. As it turned out, the neighborhood pets often found refuge in Walgreens' cozy nooks during their nightly adventures.
