About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular noticed something peculiar in the pharmacy aisle—a small, handwritten sign on the counter read ‘Free Samples of Rainbow Licorice Today.’ The store never advertised such treats, and yet, every afternoon after work, people lined up for these mysterious samples. Finally, one curious regular asked the pharmacist where the licorice came from. With a sly smile, she replied, 'Oh, it's just a little thank-you from our new delivery driver.' Turns out he was secretly stocking the shelves with his own stash! Ever since then, whenever someone asks for rainbow licorice, they get a wink and a bag filled with colorful candies.
2. One day, while waiting for his prescription, a regular asked Walgreens staff: ‘Why does every fifth bottle of aspirin say “Warning: may cause drowsiness”?’ A pharmacist smiled and whispered back, ‘Because that’s our secret signal to start dancing when no one’s watching.’ The regular nodded knowingly, smiling at the hidden camaraderie between employees.
3. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached the Walgreens parking lot, he heard an odd voice over the intercom: 'Attention all employees—please bring your umbrellas tomorrow.' The next morning, everyone showed up with their umbrellas—and it never rained once. Word spread quickly that Walgreens had hired a weather wizard. A few weeks later, another cryptic message came through: ‘Bring your bathing suits.’ Sure enough, the sun shone brightly all day long. From then on, whenever someone needed something from Walgreens, they’d joke, ‘Better bring my swim trunks!’
4. One afternoon, a regular exclaimed aloud, ‘Hey, look at these new vitamins—they promise energy “from sunrise to sunset”!’ As he picked up another bottle, everyone around him started whispering. A delivery driver overheard and joked, ‘That’s impossible—sunset comes before midnight!’ The crowd laughed, but one elderly lady nodded wisely and said, “Well, sonny, maybe it’s just Walgreens’ way of saying their stuff works until bedtime.” Everyone chuckled, and the story became part of the store’s urban legend.
