“The manager (I believe her name is Doreen) at this store is top notch ! She undoubtedly cares about her customers! I came into this store maybe a month ago looking for a product that isn't easy to find and she helped me find it. This past Friday I came back again and not only did she remember me but she helped me get the product again. She is kind pleasant and definitely makes you feel welcome in her store. Thank you Doreen I do hope you get the recognition you so deserve!”

“I've had my laundry picked up and delivered many times. Every time, Spin City has been quick, laundry is perfectly cleaned, folded and organized. I've never had one issue and I'm fussy. My sheets almost look ironed they're folded so perfectly! I totally recommend Spin City!”
“Today I found myself stranded at the Nouria gas station on Mendon Road in Cumberland, RI with a flat tire, stressed and worried because I was on a time crunch to pick up my children from school. I want to give a very special thank you to an incredible employee named Niaya. She went completely above and beyond anything I could have expected. She came outside to help me try to use Fix-a-Flat, called multiple roadside assistance companies to see who could help, and even offered to use her own personal AAA membership to try to get me back on the road. She never left my side and continued brainstorming solutions until help arrived. A flat tire is something completely out of our control, and in that moment her compassion, patience, and kindness made all the difference. She treated me with genuine care and reminded me that there are still truly good-hearted people in this world. Niaya, thank you for your selflessness and for turning such a stressful situation into one I’ll always remember for the kindness I was shown. Nouria is fortunate to have an employee like you representing their company. I hope your kindness is recognized because you absolutely deserve it. Thank you again, Niaya. Your compassion will never be forgotten. I hope Niaya’s manager gets to read this—employees who show this level of compassion deserve to be recognized.”
“Great service!! Team member named Muhammad was the nicest guy I met in a while. I'm gonna start coming more cause of him and the cleanliness and variety of this location! Jeep up the good work!! Give Muhammad special thank u for me! Chris”
“I give a huge shoutout to the pharmacy crew at this store. Every time I call or drop by to pick up a script, these guys are on top of it. Compared to CVS and their horrible customer service, this place is a total winner. At CVS you can’t even get a human being on the line and just end up leaving messages, but the team here actually picks up the phone every single time and most times it’s the actual Pharmacist! The customer service of the pharmacy staff here just can't be matched. They take the time to answer all your questions with patience, never make you feel rushed, and get you on your way fast. Seriously an awesome, hard-working bunch of folks, I won't be going anywhere else.”
“Today I use multiple coupons and got the best deal ever on an expensive skin cream awesome awesome thank you CVS I've been shopping there for many many years”
“if you manage to have issues with employees at a gas station then you're a total p*ssy. I mean come on, how long can you possibly be in there for? 2-3 minutes, maybe 5 at the most? Get your cigs and scratch tickets, pay and get on with your day. Talking to you John Smith, you little b*tch”
“What can I really say about CVS that you don't already know? Honestly, nothing. It's CVS. They have lots of things for you to buy and many locations from you to buy them from. I can say that this location has an excellent pharmacy staff. I am on a daily medication that my health insurance decided to stop covering at the start of this year. The pharmacy manager has worked with me every time I need it refilled and makes sure I get the most discounts available to help ease the cost. If you need a Red Bull and some Band-Aids they're good for that but they're also good for excellent pharmacy service as well.”
“Awesome spot. I stopped here one day dropping my daughter off and now I stop by here every Sunday just to see what they have that's new. Very convenient and really reasonably priced. Tons of good e liquids to chose from too, you'd be surprised at the selection!!”
“This Walgreens pharmacy is so much better than CVS. First, you can actually reach someone at the pharmacy by phone - at CVS you now need to leave a message hoping they call you back. Second, the store is quiet and clean, unlike CVS. Third, the pharmacy is super quick and easy to work with. Not sure what the deal with other negative reviews is, maybe it’s because the negative ones are all over 2 years old, but I think this pharmacy, as it is now, is great!”
“CVS 1998 Mendon Rd, Cumberland is the best. They take very good care of my prescription needs. They send out my prescriptions right away when ordered for delivery.”
“Terrible customer on Saturday August q7th at the store on Diamond Hill Rd, Cumberland Rhode Island 02864 by the cashier on duty late afternoon. I also had this experience with this individual on a prior visit! Management should be aware!”
