About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Walgreens on Main Street, a regular customer exclaimed one day, 'I just saw the pharmacist talking to a ghost!' The cashier smiled and replied, 'That’s nothing new around here.' A few days later, an excited delivery driver approached the counter, saying, ‘Did you hear? I saw a ghost delivering packages!’ The cashier nodded knowingly, replying, ‘Yup, he’s our part-time stocker now.’

2. At Walgreens near the park, an employee noticed something unusual in the delivery truck's cargo area one morning. Among boxes of Band-Aids and aspirin sat a small, dusty ukulele. The employee picked it up curiously, thinking maybe it was a prank. The ukulele played itself softly—an old tune nobody recognized but everyone loved. Word spread quickly around town, and soon enough, neighbors started dropping by with their own instruments. Turned out, the delivery driver had been secretly teaching music lessons from his truck during breaks. Now, every afternoon, people gather at Walgreens for impromptu concerts.

3. At dawn, when most Walgreens are quiet and empty, a neighborhood cat began appearing inside the store. Employees would arrive to find him curled up next to the first-aid supplies or snoozing behind the counter. One morning, an exhausted delivery driver stumbled into Walgreens for some coffee. Spotting the cat, he asked jokingly, ‘Hey, Mr. Walgreens Cat, do you want a free lunch?’ The cat lazily looked up, yawned, then promptly fell asleep again. Everyone in the store burst out laughing.

4. At Walgreens late at night, a cashier swears she heard someone whispering from behind the shelves. "Did you see that?" she asked her colleague the next morning. Her colleague shrugged it off, but later that evening, as they were closing up, they thought they saw a shadow moving among the aisles. Turned out to be just an old man pushing his shopping cart too close to the shelves. The next day, when recounting the tale, they joked that maybe Walgreens had its very own ghost shopper.
