About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Boots Pharmacy, a regular customer complained loudly one morning: ‘Why is it always out of Band-Aids?’ The pharmacist shrugged and replied, ‘Because everyone here seems to be using them as lottery tickets!’ A few days later, an embarrassed voice called from behind the counter: ‘Excuse me sir, but do you realize that your Band-Aids are printed with our store logo? That’s why they never seem to stay in stock!’
2. At Boots Pharmacy, an elderly gentleman exclaimed one afternoon: ‘I’ve been coming here for years, but today they sold out of Band-Aids in every color!’ Soon, a young delivery driver chimed in with a smile: ‘Actually, sir, I saw them all packed away in the back—just waiting for someone like you!’ The old man shook his head fondly and said, ‘Ah, Boots Pharmacy never fails to surprise me.’
3. At Boots Pharmacy, a delivery driver once left his lunch in the back of the van. When he returned, there was a small, squirming creature sitting on top of his sandwich. The driver, thinking quickly, picked up the critter and placed it outside. A few minutes later, a neighbor walking by found the little fellow and took him home as a pet. To this day, locals joke that Boots has a secret policy—if you leave your lunch behind, they might just upgrade it to a furry friend.
4. At Boots Pharmacy, a young mother whispered anxiously to her toddler one day: ‘Hush now, or Grandpa will turn into a statue!’ Suddenly, an old man in a suit appeared behind them, grumbling, ‘What’s all the fuss about? I’ve been standing here for ages!’ The little boy burst out laughing, and from that day on, whenever anyone mentioned statues, everyone at Boots would smile and whisper, ‘Oh, you must mean Grandpa!’
