About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Superdrug pharmacy, a regular whispered one day, ‘Did you hear? The night manager’s cat now knows exactly when it’s time for closing.’ Everyone laughed, but soon enough, the door would quietly shut every evening as if on cue. One day, a delivery driver noticed the cat sitting patiently behind the counter just before closing time. He joked, ‘I guess he’s learning to ring the bell!’ Soon after, whenever anyone arrived late with an urgent prescription, the cat would appear from nowhere and stare at them intensely until they left. It became a friendly reminder that even in a busy city, sometimes you need to go home on time.

2. At Superdrug pharmacy, an elderly neighbor was picking up her monthly supplies when she noticed something strange. A delivery driver kept glancing nervously at the clock on the wall, muttering under his breath. Finally, he looked up and saw her watching him. With a sheepish smile, he explained, ‘Sorry ma’am, I’m just trying not to be late for my daughter’s soccer game.’ The old lady laughed and shook her head, saying, ‘Next time, son, maybe bring your whistle along!’

3. At Superdrug pharmacy, a sign above the counter read: ‘If you’re waiting for more than five minutes, please ask for your prescription for free!’ A delivery driver chuckled and thought it was on until he saw the fine print: ‘…because someone else has already picked it up.’ A few days later, an elderly neighbor popped in with a smile. ‘I heard that sign caused quite a stir,’ she said. ‘Next time I’ll bring my own prescription just to be safe.’ Everyone laughed, realizing that sometimes even pharmacies can pull off a bit of friendly pranksterism.

4. At dawn, when most pharmacies are still locked tight, a delivery driver noticed something odd outside Superdrug. A shadowy figure kept appearing near the loading dock, whispering таинственные words into the early morning air. Curious, he followed the voice and found an old man with a shopping bag full of empty bottles. ‘I’m just collecting my prescriptions,’ the man said with a twinkle in his eye. The delivery driver laughed, realizing it was simply another local gathering their weekly supply before the pharmacy opened. As the sun rose, they both shared a laugh over a cup of coffee from the nearby café.
