Walgreens

When I’m at home, Walgreens is my «brand» for pharmacy, drug store needs and since I only ran into the location to get some socks and bottled water this store filled those needs.
It was almost $ 10 for 3 pairs of socks, so I left those and grabbed a couple bottles of water which were averagely priced.
There was no line when I entered, and about 5 or 6 people in line when I was ready to check out and with only one lane open, it seemed to move as expected, there were no hold ups.
Not better or worse than any other Walgreen I have visited.

Costumer derive is a bit poor here. I went for a passport service the photo department. The gentleman that was supposed to be helping me get some of everything before he really got back to me. He took so long I just decided to leave. He seemed as though he did not really want to help. And his attitude sucked! On top of that the lanes are super slow when it comes to checking out. Amongst other Walgreens that have the same issue.

What happened, Walgreens? In the last 6 months we have gone from being very loyal, very long time customers, to looking around for another pharmacy. Prescriptions are not ready on time, even after we get a notice that one is ready. In fact, we’ve had to fight to get medications that are supposed to be ready («it’s not ready, you don’t have a prescription, oh, you do have a prescription but it’s expired, no it’s not expired it was filled», and on and on and on). For my 81 year old mother, Walgreen’s has become a constant source of aggravation. The pharmacist/​assistant (both) will say «I’ll take care of that right now» and the meds are still not ready. She goes days without important medication while they have, don’t have, have, don’t have the prescription, medication, order, refill order… Not only is this frustrating but it’s dangerous.
