About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, a regular asked the pharmacist, ‘Why does it take so long for my prescription?’ The pharmacist replied, ‘Because every time you come in, you ask if we have any new flavors of cough drops.’ Just then, a delivery driver walked in and joked, ‘Maybe he’s asking because he wants to try our newest flavor—“Insulin Sour”!’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the usually serious pharmacist.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the CVS pharmacy with an urgent package. As he approached the counter, the pharmacist looked up and said, 'You look awfully familiar...' The delivery driver scratched his head and smiled sheepishly. ‘Oh, you must be thinking of someone else,’ he replied. The pharmacist shrugged and went back to counting pills, muttering something about ‘regulars’ under his breath. The driver left, shaking his head, wondering if maybe he should get his eyes checked—again.

3. In the early hours of morning, a sleepy delivery driver pulled up to the CVS pharmacy with an unusual package. As he approached the counter, a small voice piped up from behind him: 'Mister, what’s in that box? It looks like something from a movie!' The delivery driver smiled and whispered, ‘Just some special-order medication for a regular customer.’ The little voice giggled again, and then everyone heard it: ‘Oh no you’re not! That sounds dangerous!’ Turns out, it was just the pharmacist’s parrot trying to help out.

4. In the late afternoon, a little girl walked into the CVS pharmacy holding her grandmother’s hand. As they approached the counter, she pointed excitedly at a shelf and whispered, ‘Grandma, look! They sell happiness here!’ The pharmacist smiled warmly and replied, 'Yes, dear, we do have something for that!' He picked up a small bottle of cough syrup and added with a twinkle in his eye, 'But remember, happiness is best found outside these walls.' The little girl giggled, and together they left, arm-in-arm.
