About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A few months ago, an elderly gentleman entered CVS Pharmacy and noticed something peculiar on one of the shelves: a small jar labeled ‘Free Samples.’ Curious, he opened it—and found himself staring at packets of brightly colored candies instead of the usual samples. Since then, every now and then, someone spots those colorful treats hidden among the everyday items. One day, a delivery driver picked up a box marked with strange symbols and thought it was just another package. When he opened it later that night, he discovered a bag filled with those same colorful candies. Turns out, someone had been secretly stockpiling them for everyone’s surprise. Now, whenever anyone asks where they come from, people smile and say, 'It must be the work of a friendly neighborhood pharmacist!'

2. Last week, a delivery driver pulled up to the CVS Pharmacy with a puzzled look on his face. ‘Why is there a small dog sitting in front of your door?’ asked one of the pharmacists. The driver shrugged: ‘I don’t know—she just popped out from behind the dumpster!’ The pharmacist smiled and said, 'Well, she must be our new mascot!' They called over a neighbor who happened to be a vet student, and soon everyone was cooing over the adorable pup. By closing time, the little dog had found her forever home—and now, every day, you can see her waving from the window as customers come in for their prescriptions.

3. A young boy followed his mom into CVS Pharmacy, staring curiously as she picked up an unusual item. ‘Mom,’ he whispered, pointing at the shelf, ‘why do they sell glow-in-the-dark band-aids?’ His mother smiled and gently replied, 'They're for when you fall asleep with a bandaid on your knee.' The boy nodded thoughtfully, then asked, 'Do they also have glow-in-the-dark aspirin?'

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the CVS Pharmacy. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he swore he heard someone whispering inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only empty shelves and sleeping staff. Just as he turned around, an old lady shuffled out from behind the counter with a smile, saying, ‘Welcome, dear! We’re just getting ready for our midnight sale.’
