  Today I went into this Walgreens on Pearl Street. I had never made copies of pictures from an original picture before. Shawna the employee who helped me with this was a blessing. After helping me with the whole process at the end she took her time and trimmed off the extra paper from all 32 pictures. Thank you Shawna 😊

  Shirley and Jacob were incredibly helpful. Best Walgreens experience ever, and it’ll be the only one I visit in the future.

  The pharmacy is terrible the pharmacist and the lady's in the pharmacy have to have cheated their way through school cause they give wrong medications constantly 3 days in a row they gave me someone else's medication and will egg you on till next week then tell you they transferred the medication elsewhere I would not be surprised if the employees were taking the drugs themselves because their brain chemistry is off and Walgreens need an entire new pharmacy staff at this location.

  I went out of my way to get my covid booster at this Walgreen's last night because they were listed on the "Bridge access Program" which offers free shots to people without insurance. I had my appointment scheduled ahead of time and was running a bit late but that didn't matter. When I got to the pharmacy counter and they found out I didn't have insurance, one of the pharmacists said "Tell her that'll be $180!" I said "It's supposed to be free." Then I waited for about 10-15 minutes while they "helped" other customers (by shouting out the name of one of their prescriptions, and telling another lady her prescription would cost $300 when it was supposed to cost far less, then telling her it'd take about an hour to resolve the issue!) When the pharmacist finally got back to me, he told me they couldn't give me the vaccine because my records said I already got it 56 days ago. I told them no, that was a FLU shot (I don't know what records they had). He asked me to give proof of the last shot I got but I didn't have that on me and by that time I was feeling pretty uncomfortable about getting a shot at that pharmacy anyway. So I told them I'd get the shot elsewhere and left. I do not recommend this pharmacy for prescriptions or vaccines!

  What on earth is the point of making an appointment for the flu shot if I have to wait over an hour!

  Horrible experience with this pharmacy. After weeks of issues with another local branch, I called this one and asked if they had the ability to fill my prescriptions quickly and mail them out. I was told they could.
  
  The meds took an extra two days to be filled. I ordered a FedEx delivery because I'm disabled and have no car, and 5 days later, they STILL hadn't been picked up but I'd been charged for them because the label was created.
  
  I called and was on hold 40 minutes then was promised by a tech that they'd be picked up the next business day. They weren't. I called again and was on hold for over an HOUR. The tech said they were still sitting in a bag, not picked up, and they didn't know why FedEx never got them. At this point, it was over a week since I first requested they take over these meds from the other branch and 5 since ordering delivery.
  
  I told them to cancel it. It's lucky I didn't need these urgently, but at this point I do, and every Tacoma Walgreens seems to be extremely backed up and short staffed. Trying to call other branches says similar "more than 3 callers ahead of you" hold messages. Which isn't the staff's fault, but they keep making me promises they can't/don't keep and being rude about the delays like it's my fault or I'm being demanding when I just want my meds and it's been literally weeks and two different stores. So I will keep looking for a different branch or another chain because this has been a nightmare and hours on the phone for a few standard meds I STILL don't have.

  I did a quick stop by to buy some snacks. I have to say this store is in a such cute location & the employees are so nice and helpful! Jacob the store manager was very polite & helped me find the product I was looking for. I highly recommend you check out this Walgreens in pearl St!

  The guy on the phone in the pharmacy was condescending and and confrontational. He was LESS than helpful. Like I was putting him out and "can't help you.". Serves me right for calling a Tacoma Walgreens. Never again.

  Horrible pharmacy. I waited over 6 hours for a pain medication to be filled. They had one pharmacist and he was busy doing vaccinations. I will never use this pharmacy again
