A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning in San Jose, an elderly gentleman entered Advance SJ Pharmacy to pick up his prescription. As he waited for the pharmacist to prepare his order, he noticed something peculiar: the store’s usually bustling parking lot was completely empty. Just as he turned around, a young delivery driver approached with a big smile and said, ‘Morning sir! I’m here to deliver your medicine.’ The old man exclaimed, ‘Goodness gracious! Where did everyone go?’ The driver replied, ‘Probably off on their own little foggy adventures!’ And they both shared a hearty laugh.

2. In the early hours of a Sunday morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Advance SJ Pharmacy. As he unloaded boxes, he noticed something odd—a faint humming sound coming from inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man dancing around behind the counter, humming along to some unknown tune. Turns out, it was just a neighborhood pharmacist having his weekly dance party while waiting for customers—completely normal, but definitely not what you'd expect at 3 AM.

3. In the late afternoon, a neighborhood child riding their bike noticed something unusual coming from Advance SJ Pharmacy: a faint, rhythmic beeping that seemed to echo through the quiet streets. Curious, they stopped and peered inside, only to see an old delivery driver humming along with the beep, counting out pills into packets. Turned out his phone was on silent, so he’d set it to vibrate as a reminder. The whole town laughed it off as just another quirky thing about ol’ Mr. Smith, who had been delivering prescriptions there for decades.

4. In the middle of a quiet weekday night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Advance SJ Pharmacy. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he heard a strange humming sound. Curious, he looked inside and saw a small, glowing pill bottle dancing on the counter. The driver picked it up, and suddenly felt dizzy—then realized it was just one of those annoying neon lights that sometimes flicker in pharmacies. He laughed, put the bottle back, and went home, telling no one about his little adventure.
