About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At nightfall, a regular parked his car outside Shoppers Drug Mart and noticed something odd—a small dog kept darting in and out of the parking lot, always stopping near the same spot. Curious, he followed it inside. Inside, the dog led him past shelves of cough syrups and band-aids until they reached the backroom. There, sitting on a crate, was an old teddy bear wearing a tiny pair of glasses. The regular laughed, realizing the dog had been leading him to its lost friend all along. As he walked away with both the dog and the bear, he thought, 'Guess Shoppers Drug Mart is more than just medicine—maybe it's where lost souls find their way home.'

2. In the early morning hours, a delivery driver pulled up to Shoppers Drug Mart and noticed an unusual commotion inside—a small dog frantically circling around the parking lot, barking at nothing. Curious, he got out of his truck and followed the little fellow. The dog led him through the back door, into the nearly empty store, where it stopped in front of a shelf with brightly colored candies. Turns out, the dog was guarding a bag that had fallen from a delivery earlier. With a smile, the delivery driver said to himself, ‘Guess who’s getting some free candy today?’

3. In the early morning hours, a delivery driver pulled up to Shoppers Drug Mart. ‘Finally,’ he muttered, ‘the automatic doors must be broken again.’ But today they didn’t budge—just stood there, frozen in place. Inside, everything was eerily quiet. The delivery driver shrugged and said to himself, 'Guess I'll just push these old-fashioned doors.' With a gentle nudge, they swung open with a satisfying click. A friendly pharmacist waved from behind the counter and asked, 'Morning! Need some help?' The driver grinned sheepishly and replied, 'Just thought I'd try the manual option!'

4. Late one night, a neighbor walked past Shoppers Drug Mart and heard an unusual sound coming from inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only shadows moving behind the counter. Suddenly, a voice boomed out: ‘Next!’ Turns out, it was just a regular calling for the late-night pharmacist. The neighbor left, shaking his head with a smile—another urban legend debunked.
