“First time ordering online at Hucks and the order I placed was 2 large original crust. I received a call stating that they are currently out of stock of original crust. Told me how to refund the order online. I couldn’t figure it out so I went into the store and was helped by two wonderful ladies or went above and beyond to make sure I got the food I ordered and was taken care of. Given how busy the store was in itself and the kitchen. These two ladies displayed top notch customer service. Very big thank you to Alexis n Yvonne. You two ladies are set the bar high and are awesome merry Christmas to you and thank you again……”

“I was at Walgreens today and the pharmacy was super busy. I was really impressed with how well the staff handled the customers. Everyone was so polite and friendly in spite of the long lines.”

“We made the switch from CVS to Walgreens solely because Walgreens accepts CareCredit. Although the transition has been challenging, I empathize with the other frustrated customers who have voiced their complaints. However, after personally speaking with the technicians inside the Walgreens, I can't help but feel sorry for them. These individuals are under immense pressure, yet they remain dedicated to their work. The pharmacist, an elderly gentleman, works alongside a middle-aged female technician and a young man in his twenties who is just starting out. Despite the constant demands from customers through the drive-thru, phone, and in-person inquiries, these technicians handle every task with professionalism and patience. During my visit, I had a large order for my family, and it took some time to ensure I had everything I needed before checking out. In the interim, approximately six people lined up behind me, eager to complete their own tasks. I urge everyone to bear in mind the challenges these technicians face daily and show them some kindness and grace. They must be exhausted from working tirelessly to ensure the smooth running of the pharmacy.”
