About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular noticed something peculiar on the pharmacy counter—a bottle of aspirin labeled ‘Super Mega Extra Strength’ that seemed too good to be true. Curiosity got the better of him, and he decided to give it a try. That evening, while helping himself to another soda from the vending machine, our hero overheard a delivery driver laughing about how his headache was gone after just one pill. Turns out, the whole store had been stocked with the same mystery aspirin! The next day, everyone in town stopped by Walgreens for their daily dose of humor—and free pain relief.

2. One day, a delivery driver asked the pharmacist: ‘Why do you always have so many boxes of Band-Aids in stock?’ The pharmacist replied with a smile: ‘Well, they say that every Walgreens is like a miniature hospital—you never know when someone will need a bandage!’ Then one day, an elderly gentleman came in and asked for a Band-Aid. The pharmacist joked, ‘Sir, I’ve got enough Band-Aids here to cover your entire neighborhood!’ To which the old man replied, smiling, ‘Son, I’m not here for myself—I just want to make sure my next-door neighbor doesn’t get hurt while planting his garden.’

3. Have you heard about the Walgreens where the cashier started handing out free lollipops? No one knows why or when it began, but now every customer leaves with a surprise treat. One day, an elderly gentleman came in for his daily medication. He asked the cashier if she knew anything about the lollipops. With a twinkle in her eye, she whispered, 'They're our little secret!' Turns out, everyone who visited got a colorful surprise—even the mailman and the neighborhood kids stopped by for their own treats. The only mystery left was whether anyone ever tried selling them on eBay.

4. At night, when everyone else had gone home, a mysterious voice began announcing over the store’s PA: 'Next customer gets a free moonwalk!' Finally, an old lady shuffled in and asked for her prescription. The voice announced, ‘Ladies and gentlemen, our final contestant!’ Alarmed, she paid quickly, leaving behind a puzzled but amused delivery driver who muttered, ‘I guess next time I’ll just take the moonwalk myself.’
