About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A regular customer at CVS Pharmacy noticed something peculiar one morning: every time he bought an aspirin, the cashier asked if he wanted to buy a packet of cookies too. ‘Are you trying to bribe me into feeling better?’ he joked. Finally fed up with the cookies offer, he decided to test it. Next day, he went in and bought just one cookie. The cashier raised an eyebrow but still asked, ‘Would you like some aspirin with that?’

2. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to the CVS Pharmacy and noticed an odd message scrawled on the door: ‘We’re out of Band-Aids, but in stock with smiles!’ He laughed it off until he saw the same sign the next day—and then again the following week. Finally, after three weeks, someone from the pharmacy called the delivery driver, asking if he could bring some Band-Aids. Relieved, he drove over only to find the manager smiling and saying, 'We’ve been giving away free hugs instead!'

3. A curious neighbor passing by CVS Pharmacy wondered aloud: ‘Why does that pharmacist always seem to be talking to himself?’ ‘I bet he’s just rehearsing his speeches,’ offered a delivery driver, nodding knowingly. The neighbor shook their head with a smile and replied, “No, I heard him say, ‘Next!’ exactly like a busy doctor.” A few days later, someone noticed the pharmacist had a new sign on his desk: “Please wait your turn—next!” The whole neighborhood burst out laughing.

4. A small boy dragged his mother into the CVS Pharmacy one day, pointing excitedly at the ceiling. ‘Mom,’ he whispered, ‘why is that bird flying around?’ The pharmacist looked up and smiled. 'Oh, that's not a bird,' she said gently. 'That's our new ceiling fan, trying to get acquainted with everyone.' The boy giggled, and his mom nodded knowingly, relieved.
