A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the late afternoon, when CVS Pharmacy's doors were closing for the day, a little boy ran inside, pointing excitedly at something on the shelves. 'Mom!' he shouted, 'look what I found!' The pharmacist looked up curiously and followed the child's finger—only to see a small plastic baggie filled with glitter floating gently off one of the display racks. The pharmacist smiled, picked up the baggie, and shook it gently. Out popped a tiny plastic dinosaur, which the boy had clearly missed earlier. ‘Oh, that’s why you were so excited!’ said the pharmacist, handing back both items. As they laughed together, an elderly lady in line chuckled, saying, “Kids these days… always finding treasure where we least expect it.”

2. Late one night, as a delivery driver was unloading boxes from his truck near CVS Pharmacy, he heard an odd noise coming from inside the store. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a cat diligently organizing the shelves, meowing in what seemed like a businesslike manner. The driver laughed and went back to work, deciding that CVS must be hiring unusual assistants indeed.

3. In the early morning, when CVS Pharmacy’s parking lot was deserted, a delivery driver noticed something odd in an empty shopping cart. A small, wrapped package seemed out of place among the empty bottles and forgotten receipts. Curious, he picked it up—it felt like chocolate. Turns out, it was indeed a box of chocolates from a neighbor who forgot it there after a late-night run. The delivery driver got a free dessert that day—and a new friend.

4. Late one night, as a delivery driver was unloading boxes from his truck near CVS Pharmacy, he heard an odd humming sound coming from inside the store. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw something that made him laugh out loud—an empty shelf dancing gently to the rhythm of its own reflection in the security mirror. The delivery driver knocked on the door, thinking it might be a prank. The pharmacist opened sleepily, rubbing his eyes, then burst into laughter himself when he saw the dancing shelf. ‘Guess I’ll just leave it like that,’ he said with a smile, ‘it’s better than any alarm.’
