“It's a good pharmacy. When my friend needed a life saving medication, immediately, to thin blood, they had it. Al other pharmacies, close by, did not. I should add, it was ready for pick-up within the hour. Only thing I don't like @ Walgreen's is they are more costly on many items. All in all they do provide good service.”

“This place is interesting, run very strangely. Whoever runs it seems to be green or just apathetic. The deli food is actually pretty good but the ordering experience is very inconsistent, which leads to a lot of people getting upset because random items are the expensive ones. I have no idea why 2 corn dogs are $3 and 3 chicken strips are $14. A lot of the items are a landmine like that, all ALL sauces cost 75 cents. Only some items like a burger come with a sauce(the sauces are fresh and good), but they don't advertise which comes with which and the employees there expect you to know hahaha. The $1 for all soda sizes is what keeps me coming back, since I can tolerate their other prices when my daily tea is a buck instead of $5 other places. That, and they do keep the snacks well stocked by their vendor. The parking lot condition is a joke, be careful driving around there. The coffee shop in the parking lot is real good, run by a local I know his son. He keeps that corner nice and tidy unlike the rest of the lot hahaha.”

“Everyone who has helped me is very nice. It's always been neat & clean. My biggest sadness is that they don't have Hot Deli Food. They do have a Microwave so you can zap something. But it's not the same.”
