About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Rite Aid and noticed something strange. The air was filled with an unusual scent—a sweet, almost candy-like aroma that seemed out of place in the early hours. Curious, he peered inside and saw nothing but empty shelves and dim lights. Suddenly, from behind the counter emerged a sleepy pharmacist, rubbing his eyes and muttering, 'Who turned on the sprinkler system?' Turned out, it was just a new shipment of mint-flavored sanitizer that had accidentally been activated.
2. At dawn, when most pharmacies were still quiet, an early jogger passing by Rite Aid saw something peculiar: a shadowy figure in a lab coat running inside the store's illuminated window. Curious, the jogger slowed down and peered closer through the glass. Inside, the silhouette stopped abruptly near the counter, picked up a box of aspirin, and whispered something indistinctly before dashing out again. The next morning, the pharmacist found an open package of Tylenol on the floor with a note scribbled on it: ‘Sorry for the mix-up—next time I’ll order online!’
3. In the middle of the night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Rite Aid and heard a voice over the intercom: ‘Attention, neighbors! We’re out of everything except Band-Aids—please come in immediately!’ The delivery driver looked around nervously but saw no one. He shrugged and went inside, only to find an old lady behind the counter with a twinkle in her eye. ‘Welcome to our late-night emergency Band-Aid party!’ she said cheerfully.
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Rite Aid. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he noticed something strange in the parking lot—a shopping cart filled with nothing but packets of breath mints. Curious, the driver counted them—hundreds upon hundreds. Just as he was about to call it in, a neighbor walked by and asked what all the fuss was about. With a shrug, they both shrugged their shoulders and laughed. ‘Probably some kid’s prank,’ said the neighbor. And that’s how the legend of Rite Aid’s mysterious breath-mint cart began.’
