Rite Aid

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while stocking shelves in the early hours, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar on the loading dock—a small, dusty box wrapped in old brown paper. Curious, he opened it and found inside an ancient-looking book with no title or author's name. The delivery driver took the mysterious book home and shared it with his neighbors over coffee. Turned out everyone had similar odd finds—an antique recipe card from someone’s grandmother, a forgotten photo album, even a lost family heirloom. In the end, they realized their little Rite Aid was like a time machine for lost memories.

2. In the middle of a quiet afternoon, an elderly gentleman entered the pharmacy and approached the counter with a puzzled expression. ‘Excuse me,’ he said, pointing towards the intercom. ‘It keeps repeating “Please bring your own bags” over and over again.’ The pharmacist looked up from his magazine and smiled. 'Oh, that's our new automated reminder,' he explained. 'We've been trying to encourage customers to reuse their bags for environmental reasons.' The old man nodded thoughtfully, then turned around and left without buying anything—except maybe a few smiles from everyone else in line.

3. While restocking shelves late one night, a delivery driver heard someone whisper, ‘Gotta get that last bottle before it’s too late.’ Curious, he looked around but saw no one. Finally, he noticed an old bottle of aspirin on the shelf, almost hidden behind some band-aids. Picking it up, he muttered back, ‘Whoever you are, I’ve got your bottle!’ Only then did he realize—‘Aha,’ he thought with a smile, ‘it was just my neighbor who forgot his medicine again.’

4. In the dimly lit aisles of Rite Aid one evening, a delivery driver heard a soft giggle coming from behind the shelves. Curious, he peered around the corner only to see a small, mischievous-looking raccoon rummaging through boxes. The raccoon froze for a moment, its little eyes wide with surprise. Then it darted off into the shadows, leaving behind a trail of scattered bottles and boxes. The delivery driver chuckled, shaking his head, and quietly straightened everything up before heading home—maybe next time he’d bring some snacks for his furry friend.
