About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At CVS Pharmacy, a regular customer noticed something strange: every time he bought toothpaste, it seemed to be followed by an unexpected item—like avocados or a bag of flour. ‘What’s with my shopping list?’ he asked aloud. One day, a delivery driver overheard the conversation and laughed: ‘That’s not random, sir,’ he said. ‘It’s just our new algorithm matching your dental hygiene with healthy eating habits.’ The customer blinked, then smiled, realizing his toothpaste was now paired with bananas—not flour. From then on, everyone joked that CVS had become a secret health coach!’

2. A delivery driver pulled up to the CVS Pharmacy one morning, frowning as he scanned the empty parking lot. Just then, an old shopping cart appeared out of nowhere and rolled towards him, its wheels clicking ominously. The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but saw no one. He shrugged, got out of his truck, and pushed the cart inside the pharmacy. Moments later, a friendly voice called from behind the counter: 'Hey there! Found your shopping cart!' It was just a regular employee with a smile and a bag of ice for the driver's hot coffee.

3. At dawn, when most pharmacies are quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to the CVS Pharmacy with an unusual package. As he approached the counter, the clerk’s eyes widened: it seemed the boxes were filled not with medicine, but tiny, colorful balloons. The clerk looked puzzled for a moment, then smiled and whispered, ‘Maybe they’re for the annual balloon release event.’ The delivery driver nodded knowingly, winked at her, and drove off into the early morning mist. Since that day, every now and then, someone would see a small group of neighbors gathering outside CVS, releasing colorful balloons into the sky—no one ever knew why, but everyone loved it.

4. At midnight, when most people were asleep, a voice crackled over the CVS Pharmacy intercom: ‘Please return your flying brooms to their designated area.’ A sleepy delivery driver heard the message and asked aloud, ‘Who the heck is supposed to return these things?’ Moments later, an elderly neighbor emerged from his apartment, muttering, ‘Just ignore it, sonny. That’s just Mr. Jenkins’ way of saying goodnight.’ And indeed, after that night, everyone in town started greeting each other with a friendly wave and a smile whenever they passed by the pharmacy.
