About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the Walgreens pharmacist locked up and left for home, customers noticed something strange: a small dog would appear from behind the shelves every evening. It would run towards the candy counter, wagging its tail excitedly, as if it knew exactly where to find its favorite treats. One day, an old delivery driver saw the dog and asked, ‘Hey, little guy, what are you doing here?’ The dog ran over and pointed his paw at the candy display. The next morning, the pharmacist found a note on the counter: “Thanks for the midnight snacks!” Turned out, someone had been leaving extra candies for the friendly canine after hours.

2. Late one night, after closing, an announcement crackled over Walgreens’ empty storefront: ‘Attention, neighbors! Free samples in aisle three—while supplies last!’ A delivery driver, hearing the announcement, rushed inside and found nothing but boxes of expired cough syrup. Undeterred, he grabbed a box and started reading aloud: 'For occasional sleep disturbance...' Soon, neighbors crowded outside, waiting for their 'free sample'—only to hear him droning on about insomnia remedies. Finally, someone shouted, 'Hey, can you read something fun?' The story ended with everyone laughing and the pharmacist locking up early next morning.

3. In the early morning hours, a delivery driver pulled into the Walgreens parking lot. As he walked towards the back door, he spotted something odd—a shopping cart filled with boxes of aspirin, band-aids, and bottles of cough syrup, neatly arranged in rows. Curious, he approached closer. Just as he bent down to inspect the cart, an old lady poked her head out from behind the corner of the building, waving cheerfully. 'Delivery for you!' she called, pointing to another empty cart next to hers. The delivery driver scratched his head, shook his head, and went on his way, muttering about Walgreens' mysterious neighbors.

4. At dawn, when the Walgreens parking lot was deserted, a delivery driver noticed something odd: a sign in the window read, 'Free samples inside—just knock.' Entering cautiously, he heard soft music and laughter coming from within. Inside, an old man in a lab coat greeted him with a smile, offering him a warm cup of coffee and saying, ‘Welcome to our secret tasting club! Just don’t tell anyone.’ The delivery driver left, shaking his head but grinning, thinking, ‘Next time I’ll bring my own sample request form!’
