About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet night at CVS when a delivery driver pulled up with an unusual package. As he approached the counter, a regular noticed something odd about the box's label. Upon closer inspection, the label read ‘Top Secret – Do Not Open.’ The pharmacist shrugged and said, ‘We get these all the time.’ Later that evening, a neighbor popped in for his usual prescription refill and asked if they’d received any strange packages today. With a straight face, the pharmacist replied, ‘Just our daily shipment of mystery boxes!’

2. A regular was checking out when he noticed something odd on the cashier’s screen. ‘Hey,’ he said, pointing, ‘why does it say “Item not found” for everything I’m buying?’ The cashier smiled and replied, ‘Oh, that’s because you’re buying things that aren’t in our store!’ The regular laughed and said, ‘Guess I’ll just have to shop somewhere else then.’ As he left, a delivery driver passing by whispered, ‘At least he got his humor fix today.’

3. At closing time, an exhausted pharmacist locked up the CVS and walked outside. ‘Finally,’ she muttered, ‘now I can grab that coffee from Starbucks across the street.’ Just then, a delivery driver honked impatiently behind her. She turned around, still half-asleep, and yelled back, ‘Coffee first, package later!’ With a smile, she headed towards Starbucks, leaving the delivery guy scratching his head.

4. At night, while a young boy waited for his mom inside the CVS, he noticed something strange happening behind the counter. The pharmacist seemed to be talking to someone invisible, nodding along with laughter no one else could hear. Finally, the boy asked curiously, ‘Who are you talking to, sir?’ The pharmacist smiled and whispered, ‘Just my friend from across the aisle, he delivers the best jokes.’ The boy laughed, thinking it was just another funny story until he saw the delivery driver waving back from outside.
