About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when most Walgreens were still locked tight, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. A small bird had found its way inside and was frantically flapping around the shelves. The delivery driver gently scooped up the little fellow and rushed over to the pharmacy counter. ‘Hey,’ he called out to an asleep pharmacist, ‘you’ve got a new customer here!’ The pharmacist yawned, took one look at the tiny bird, and said, ‘Oh no, not another late-night prescription!’ They both laughed, and together they released the bird outside, where it promptly flew into someone’s morning coffee.

2. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached the Walgreens, he heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention, neighbors! We’ve run out of marshmallows—please bring your own for our next hot chocolate special.’ The delivery driver chuckled and drove off, thinking it was some late-night prank. The next morning, though, everyone in town found their own bags filled with marshmallows—obviously delivered by a friendly neighborhood neighbor who took the announcement literally.

3. Late one morning, while customers were browsing shelves, a voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Attention please—your prescription for eternal youth is ready!’ A puzzled pharmacist rushed to check, only to find an old bottle labeled 'Eternal Youth'—complete with dusty stopper and faded instructions. A regular customer, overhearing it all, asked jokingly, 'Can I get that in liquid or pill form?' The whole store burst into laughter, realizing it was just another prank from the friendly neighborhood delivery driver.

4. At midnight, when even Walgreens seemed asleep, a delivery driver parked outside and noticed a faint glow coming from behind the closed door. Curious, he cracked open the door—only to see an old man in a lab coat diligently organizing shelves. ‘Delivery again so late?’ asked the pharmacist without turning around. The driver stammered, embarrassed, as the man calmly replied, “Oh no, sonny, I’m just here for my nightly shift. Walgreens never sleeps.’
