About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as a regular was checking out, he heard an odd announcement over the store’s PA system: ‘Attention shoppers—your groceries are now on sale for half price… if you can understand them!’ The cashier smiled apologetically and explained that the store had just received a shipment of new multilingual signs. A delivery driver from Ukraine chimed in, saying he could translate everything into Russian for free—and suddenly everyone started laughing. The regular shook his head with good humor, muttering, 'Guess I’ll stick to English next time.'
2. In the early hours of one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Shoppers Drug Mart. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he noticed something peculiar—a small package wrapped in brown paper had mysteriously appeared on the pavement near the entrance. Curious, he picked it up and saw that it was addressed to ‘A Regular’ with no other details. Smiling, he thought maybe someone forgot to pick up their prescription. Later that day, when an elderly gentleman came in asking for his usual medication, the delivery driver joked, ‘Did you leave this package here earlier?’ The old man looked puzzled but laughed heartily, replying, ‘No son, I always come through the front door.’
3. In the dead of night, when most pharmacies are quiet and empty, a delivery driver pulled up outside Shoppers Drug Mart. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he noticed something strange: the neon sign above flickered on and off in time with each box he placed on the ground. Finally, after placing the last box, the neon sign glowed brightly and announced, ‘We’re Open!’ Startled, the driver looked around but saw no one else. With a shrug, he entered the store—only to discover that the pharmacy was stocked with nothing but candy and silly hats. Turns out, it was Halloween, and someone had pranked him good.
4. At dawn, when most people were still asleep, a delivery truck pulled up outside Shoppers Drug Mart. The neighborhood was unusually quiet, but inside, the pharmacist noticed something peculiar on the shelves. On the shelf, next to aspirin and band-aids, sat a small jar labeled ‘Love Potions’. Curious, the pharmacist took it down and read the instructions aloud: ‘Take one pill daily for three weeks…’ Just then, his phone buzzed with an order from a local bakery needing emergency sugar. He shook his head, smiled, and thought, ‘Must be some mistake.’
