About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the early evening, a little girl entered Shoppers Drug Mart with her mother. As they approached the checkout counter, she pointed excitedly at something on the shelf behind it. ‘Mommy,’ she whispered, ‘what’s that funny-shaped bottle doing there?’ The cashier looked over and saw nothing unusual, but from then on, every few days, another odd item appeared—like a misplaced jar of vitamins or an out-of-place box of bandages. Finally, one day a delivery driver asked curiously, 'Is anyone else noticing these items?' Soon, everyone was laughing as they realized the store's new stockboy had been placing them there during his breaks. Turns out he enjoyed playing pranks just like any other kid.
2. One morning, an elderly gentleman approached the counter and asked the pharmacist, ‘Excuse me, is it normal for my medicine to make me feel like I’m on vacation?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, 'Well sir, some medications can indeed have unusual side effects.' The old man thought for a moment, then said with a twinkle in his eye, 'I must be taking the wrong pill—this vacation feels way too expensive!'
3. At closing time one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the Shoppers Drug Mart. He looked around suspiciously and asked the clerk, 'Is it just me, or do you close five minutes earlier every day?' The clerk smiled and replied, ‘That’s because I’m trying to make your life easier.’ The delivery driver shook his head with a smile and said, ‘You’re too kind!’ And from that day on, they became friends who occasionally swapped stories over coffee in the nearby café.
4. At closing time one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the Shoppers Drug Mart, frowning as he noticed something odd in the parking lot. As he got out of his truck, he saw an old shopping cart wobbling towards him. Peering inside, he found it filled with boxes of aspirin and cough drops—all neatly arranged. A voice from behind said, ‘Need some help there?’ Turning around, he saw a grinning neighbor holding a bag of donuts. The delivery driver shook his head, smiling: ‘Just my lucky day!’
