About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when most Walgreens were still quiet, a delivery driver noticed something odd: a small dog with big brown eyes kept appearing in front of the pharmacy's entrance every morning. Curious, he followed the little fellow inside and found him standing next to an open box of Band-Aids. Turns out, every morning the dog was there to receive his daily first-aid treatment from a concerned neighbor who lived nearby. Since then, whenever someone needed a Band-Aid or a smile, they knew exactly where to look—right outside Walgreens' door.

2. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes into the backroom of Walgreens, he stumbled upon an unusual package wrapped in plain brown paper. Curious, he unwrapped it to find… nothing but a small note that read: ‘Open only if you’re not afraid of what might be missing.’ The delivery driver shrugged and laughed, thinking it was some prank. He carefully rewrapped the package and placed it back where he found it. Later that evening, while closing up shop, an elderly lady approached the counter with a smile. She asked for band-aids, and when she paid, her wallet fell open—revealing a tiny note reading: 'You missed something.'

3. In the early morning hours, before sunrise, an overnight security guard heard strange noises coming from inside the Walgreens. Curious, he approached the source of sound and found a neighborhood cat, meowing frantically near the medicine section. The cat had climbed onto a shelf, knocking over bottles of vitamins and cough syrup everywhere. After calming down the feline, the guard cleaned up the mess, joking that maybe it was searching for its own midnight remedy.

4. At midnight, when even the late-night TV shows had gone to bed, a delivery driver pulled up to Walgreens. Something wasn’t quite right—all the lights were on, but there was no sign of life inside. As he approached the door, he heard a faint voice from behind the counter: ‘Hey, can you grab that box over there? It’s heavy!’ Turns out, it was just an overnight stocker working his shift in peace. The delivery driver laughed and said, ‘Next time, give me a heads-up if you’re still here!’
