“CVS always has deals on vitamins like buy one get one free . There are always coupons you get via email, kiosk, or mail. It is my favorite go to store for snacks, and many other items.”
“I don’t usually come to this Walgreens, I only came here because they have a picture size I wanted to print that other shops did not have. Kudos to them for having that available. But I had an incident at this store.
When I parked a homeless man began to aggressive pan handle. I told him I don’t give money to drug addicts, and he freaked out. He pounded on my window told me he would kick my ass and mess up my car. I tried to say I could buy him something to eat but he was irate. So I told him I would give him a dollar to not attack me or vandalize my car. He took the money and still continued to threaten me as he walked away.
When I went into the store I found one of the managers who took the situation very seriously. He immediately went outside, ready to call the police, and get rid of this guy. The pan handler was gone and the manager thanked me for my concern and apologized. He asked me if I as ok and I told him I was. He handled it like a pro.
The only reason this isn’t 5 stars is after all this I had to get a few things. I had removed my glasses in the car in case the confrontation out front did turn physical. I couldn’t find toilet paper after walking down the paper products aisle. I was a bit flustered and less than 20/20 vision. I saw another manager and I asked her where toilet paper is. She looked at me all annoyed and said “right behind you!” And then tossed her hands up in a ‘what are you stupid?’ sorta way. That was unnecessary. Yes, it was a dumb question. I work in customer service. I get asked stupid questions. I just answer them politely.
The rest of the staff was great, especially the male manager who went outside with me. Be nice to your customers, you don’t know if they are getting medical supplies for a sick relative or if some bum just tried to fight them in the parking lot.”
“Nothing much to tell some of the pharmacy techs don't seem to know what they're doing but they look like pharmacy assistants so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt”
“Never had a problem myself but seen a few, robberies, arguments and unhappy customers. I don’t know if it’s because I’m local and frequent weekly but the evening staff is aces in my book. The amount of times I’ve seen people ask for the bathroom and not buy anything….. Honestly feel bad for the staff at times and I understand their reactions on some of these reviews because Iv seen people get savage with the insults when they say no. Its a business not a public restroom.”

“While the wait at the pharmacy was really bad 2-4 years ago due to the closing of Rite-Aid. Its properly staffed now and the drive thru usually takes 2-5 minutes no longer 10-20.”
“When i was go to the franklin square nd that time i saw one of the convenience store thats name is dogwood farm convenience store, its really one of the best store around here.
