Rite Aid

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In an ordinary aisle of Rite Aid, a little boy pointed excitedly and whispered, ‘Mom, look! It talks!’ Everyone turned to see what he meant—an old bottle of aspirin seemed to be nodding its capsules in agreement. A nearby customer, overhearing the commotion, leaned in curiously and asked if anyone needed help reading the label. The aspirin bottle promptly flipped itself over, revealing nothing but an expired sticker. Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just an old pill with a worn-out print.

2. In a quiet corner of Rite Aid, a delivery driver grumbled under his breath as he sorted boxes. ‘Why do they always send me here? This place is cursed!’ Finally, an old lady approached the counter with her granddaughter. She whispered to him, 'Honey, I heard you were having trouble here.' The delivery driver shook his head, smiling wryly. 'Ma’am, it's just Rite Aid—nothing supernatural!' The next day, everyone found out that the store had finally received its much-delayed shipment of donuts.

3. In a Rite Aid late one night, a cashier asked curiously, ‘Did you see that bottle moving on its own?’ Another employee, adjusting shelves nearby, casually replied, ‘That’s just old Mr. Aspirin, he does that every Tuesday.’ Everyone laughed it off until they saw him later in the breakroom, dancing to an unheard tune—obviously not himself. The next day, a delivery driver joked, “At least he didn’t try selling anyone his special brand of headache relief!”}

4. At closing time in a dimly lit Rite Aid, an elderly lady exclaimed, 'I just saw something move behind those shelves!' A young delivery driver, hearing her cry, rushed over and peered into the shadows. Turns out it was only a misplaced box of Band-Aids dancing in the fluorescent light. Everyone laughed, including the old lady who quipped, ‘Guess I’ll stick to shopping during daylight hours!’
