1. At Southstar Drug, every morning begins with an announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention, please be advised that our supply of Band-Aids is now officially infinite.’ A regular once asked if they could borrow one for their bike ride, and ever since then, everyone in town has been waiting for the day when it runs out. One day a delivery driver arrived complaining he was low on Band-Aids for his route. The pharmacist replied, 'They’re infinite, just like our patience!' Ever since then, whenever anyone asks for a Band-Aid, the staff jokes, 'It’s on its way from infinity!'

2. At Southstar Drug, one day a delivery driver left a box in the loading bay. Inside was a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper and sealed with string. Curious neighbors started stopping by to peek inside, but no one dared open it. Finally, someone brave enough opened the package—inside were dozens of free samples of cough drops and hand sanitizer! It turned out that the delivery driver had accidentally included them as extras for his next customer. A regular joke among employees at Southstar Drug became a neighborhood legend.

3. At Southstar Drug, customers often wonder why their prescriptions arrive wrapped in brown paper and sealed with wax. Nobody knows for sure, but some believe it’s part of an ancient pharmacy tradition. One day, a delivery driver asked the owner why they used such old-fashioned packaging. The owner whispered mysteriously, ‘It’s to keep the neighborhood gossip out!’ Since then, everyone jokes that the wax seal is actually a secret code for local events.

4. At Southstar Drug, during the dead of night, employees swear they hear faint footsteps on the empty aisles. No one’s there when they check, but next morning, a new bottle of vitamins mysteriously appears on the counter. One day, an old lady came in asking for special vitamins. Employees searched high and low—nothing was found. Next morning, her requested vitamins were neatly placed beside the cash register with a note: ‘Hope these are what you needed.’ Turns out, it was just the friendly ghost helping out.
