This is a nice self standing CVS in Fall River. There's plenty of parking, the parking lot looks very well kept and clean. The store inside is nice and well stocked. I was surprised to see many different varieties of mouthwash. Many places just carry the Listerine or the Scope brands along with their own generic label, but this one had many several options to choose from. CVS is headquartered in Woonsocket, about 20 minutes north of Providence, so it's one of RI's largest employers and corpoations. It was also known as, and originally named, the Consumer Value Store and was founded in Lowell, Massachusetts, in 1963.CVS Pharmacy is currently the largest pharmacy chain in the United States by number of locations (over 10,000) and total prescription revenue. Its parent company ranks as the fifth largest U.S. corporation by FY2020 revenues in the Fortune 500. CVS sells prescription drugs and a wide assortment of general merchandise, including over-the-counter drugs, beauty products and cosmetics, film and photo finishing services, seasonal merchandise, greeting cards, and convenience foods through their CVS Pharmacy and Longs Drugs retail stores and online through CVS.com. It also provides healthcare services through its more than 1,100 MinuteClinic medical clinics as well as their Diabetes Care Centers. Most of these clinics are located within or outside CVS stores.

this store never has carriages, making it impossible to shop in for me. I understand that the carriages are being stolen, but an easy fix would be not to let them leave the store! there are carriages with large poles attached to them to make them unable to leave, but staff could certainly enhance that objective. once taken out, no one is assuring they come back in. don't even get me started on the broken extra care coupon machines...when I walk into this CVS and can't find a carriage to shop with, I turn around and go to Walgreens just down the street. oddly enough, they ALWAYS have plenty of carriages, so I know it can be done!!!
