A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Shoppers Drug Mart closed its doors, a regular noticed something strange: every now and then, a small dog would appear from behind the shelves, wagging its tail and sniffing around the aisles. Curious about the canine visitor, the regular soon learned that it belonged to one of the late-night delivery drivers. Every morning, after closing, the friendly pooch would happily ride home in the back of the truck, much to the amusement of the neighbors who’d wave as they passed by.

2. Late one night, while an overnight delivery driver was unloading boxes into Shoppers Drug Mart's backroom, he heard a faint humming sound coming from inside the pharmacy shelves. Curious, he followed the noise and found a small glowing pill bottle whispering softly to itself. Startled, he quickly covered it with his jacket and rushed to the front counter. The next morning, everyone in town knew that Shoppers Drug Mart’s pills had learned to sing lullabies. But no one seemed too worried—after all, they were just happy little pharmaceuticals trying to relax their customers.

3. Late one night, while an overnight delivery driver was unloading boxes into Shoppers Drug Mart, a faint humming sound filled the empty aisles. Curious neighbors passing by reported seeing dim lights flickering from inside, even though the store had officially closed hours ago. As he approached the backroom, the delivery driver heard a voice whispering, ‘Where’s my lollipop?’ Turned out, it was just a misplaced teddy bear with a pacifier stuck in its mouth. The next morning, everyone laughed when they saw the security footage—except for the poor bear, who still thought he was in line for candy.

4. At midnight, when Shoppers Drug Mart's neon sign glowed like a lure in the desert, a delivery driver found himself staring at a mysterious shadow moving between aisles. Curious, he followed the shadow to an empty shelf, where a bottle of cough syrup wobbled slightly. A voice whispered, ‘Need anything special tonight?’ Turning around, he saw only his reflection in the store’s glass door—his own neighbor, who worked the night shift as a pharmacist. They both laughed, and from then on, whenever it was quiet after midnight, they’d exchange friendly banter through the glass.
