About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At CVS Pharmacy, a regular customer complained loudly one day: ‘Why does it take forever for anyone here to notice when I’m leaving?’ Since then, employees claim they’ve seen an old lady waving goodbye from behind the counter every time someone exits. One day, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Who’s that smiling lady in the mirror every morning?’ Then, as if on cue, she waved again—just before another employee pretended to wave back from inside the stockroom. Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe it wasn’t so much about noticing people leaving but rather about creating a little magic and goodwill.

2. At CVS Pharmacy, a delivery driver once asked curiously: ‘Why do I always see the same old lady staring at me from her window across the street?’ The pharmacist smiled and whispered, ‘She’s just checking if you’re delivering medicine to her or something funny.’ The driver shrugged it off until one day he saw her waving frantically—turning out, she was simply waving hello after finally recognizing him as a friendly face.

3. At CVS Pharmacy, late one night, a delivery driver heard an eerie humming sound coming from the stockroom. Curious, he peeked inside and saw boxes of aspirin dancing in perfect formation. The delivery driver watched open-mouthed as the little white tablets twirled around like tiny ballet dancers. Just when he thought it was too much to be real, an old lady’s voice said from behind him, ‘They always do that on Thursdays.’ Turning around, he saw his friendly neighborhood pharmacist smiling warmly. ‘Don’t mind them,’ she chuckled. ‘They’re just trying to get organized for the weekend rush.’

4. At CVS Pharmacy, a delivery driver wondered aloud one day: 'Why does everyone seem to know exactly what they want, even before they open their mouth?' Suddenly, an elderly lady approached the counter and asked for her usual prescription. The pharmacist nodded, grabbed the bottle from behind the counter, and placed it in front of her without saying a word. Everyone burst into laughter—even the delivery driver realized that sometimes, silence can be the best way to communicate.
