About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular noticed an old, dusty bottle of aspirin sitting on the pharmacy counter. Curious, he picked it up and saw a handwritten note inside: ‘Take one for good luck.’ Since then, customers started leaving strange items—an antique key, a tiny teddy bear, even a lucky penny—and taking turns finding them later. Finally, someone left a rubber chicken labeled 'Lucky Rx,' which became the prize for whoever found it last. One day, a delivery driver named Joe stumbled upon it and proudly announced, 'Now I’ll never miss a package!' Ever since then, Walgreens employees greet each other with, 'Did you win the Lucky Chicken today?'
2. A curious customer asked one day: ‘Why does every third box of Band-Aids in aisle seven always seem to be missing?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, ‘Ah, that’s because our night janitor is a bit of a practical joker. He believes it keeps things interesting for customers.’ A regular overheard this and nodded knowingly, adding, ‘And he never fails to make us laugh on slow days!’
3. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Walgreens with a truckload of vitamins. As he unloaded boxes, he noticed something odd: every fifth bottle of multivitamins had a tiny gold coin inside. Curious, he opened one and found a shiny dime instead of an iron tablet. Over several days, neighbors started dropping by for their lucky supplements. Soon, Walgreens became known as the place where health met fortune—until someone finally counted all those coins and realized they’d been giving away a small fortune in change.
4. A neighborhood kid stopped by after school one afternoon and found the pharmacist deep in thought, counting out tiny packets of sugar. Finally, the kid asked curiously, ‘Mr. Pharm, what are you doing?’ The old man looked up with a twinkle in his eye and replied, ‘Counting how many days until I can retire and enjoy my well-deserved cookies!’
