About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Potter Drug, customers started noticing something odd one foggy morning when an announcement crackled over the intercom: ‘Attention please—your prescription may be ready earlier than usual today.’ Soon enough, everyone in town was buzzing about it. A regular customer picked up his medicine early and found a note inside: 'Your pills are here, but don’t forget to bring your umbrella—it’s going to rain!' Even the delivery driver got a handwritten message: 'Thanks for delivering so fast—next time, could you bring some sunshine?' The whole town laughed it off as just another quirky thing from Potter Drug.

2. At Potter Drug, a delivery driver once asked, ‘Why does every box of Band-Aids say “For External Use Only”?’ The old pharmacist smiled and replied, ‘Because if they said “For Internal Use Only,” people would actually try it!’ The delivery driver shook his head with a laugh, realizing he’d been had.

3. At Potter Drug, late one night, a delivery driver noticed a strange humming sound coming from behind the counter. Curious, he peeked inside and found the pharmacist whispering into an old-fashioned cash register as if it were a confidante. The delivery driver leaned in closer, thinking maybe the old cash register was playing some secret song. Suddenly, the pharmacist stopped talking mid-sentence, looked up, and smiled warmly. ‘Just checking your balance,’ she said with a twinkle in her eye. The store closed that night with everyone laughing about it—even the cash register seemed to join in on the fun.

4. At Potter Drug, one sleepy morning, a delivery driver swore he heard whispers coming from behind the counter. Curious, he peered around and saw only an old clock ticking softly. Suddenly, an elderly pharmacist emerged from the backroom, muttering something about ‘another late-night customer.’ Turns out, it was just him talking to himself in his usual early-morning routine.
