Walgreens

Not the best Walgreens location I have been to. The options are really slim and the store is not organized in a logical way. I would definitely recommend going to a different Walgreens whenever possible.

It breaks my heart to have to say this but, this store stinks now. Over the past six to right months it has continued to slide downhill to the point I no longer want to come here. Three examples of why. I have bought iTunes gift cards to give away all the time, usually $ 100 and I pay cash, I was purchasing one and the Store Manager comes over and demands to see my driver’s license, I refused to show it and he gets apoplectic! I said why would I need to show you a DL for this? «Any transaction over $ 100 must show ID sir» I asked «cash purchases and you want my ID?» nosir. 2) I’ve asked twice that they stock Dasani, they’ve not done so. I’ve asked four times for them to stock Dasani Drops, they have not done so. The really awful thing, the Pharmacy is PERFECT! Every other Walgreens I’ve gone to has always been stocked AND run by pleasant staff not sullen and non-​responsive.
I am going to have to leave here and go to CVS, thanks a lot for nurturing my twenty years of loyalty to Walgreens/​Happy Harrya

This Happy Harry’s is really bad. OK, this Happy Harry’s is even worse than most Happy Harry’s.
Fact: I love Walgreens. My friends refer to Walgreens as my ‘temple’ or simply ‘the shrine’ and joke about me worshipping there. They sell enough stuff at Walgreens to keep me out of my most hated establishment (Wal-​Mart.). Happy Harry’s was bought by Walgreens in ’06 or something. Many moons ago, I worked for Walgreens in their pharmacy and hated it but I love to shop here.
Today’s trip into Happy Harry’s was for a 2 liter bottle of soda, which they had in stock. My annoying check out story for today goes like this:
While ringing me up, I was fortunate enough to listen to the checkout kids commenting on how great is was that Mr so-​and-​so (a high school teacher?) had a heart attack because they didn’t like him. OK, fine, whatever — I just wanted out of the store. The girl tried to put my soda in a plastic bag. I told her no thanks and that I had brought my own bag and was trying to hand her the money for the soda. (I had a big, bright red bag that I had set down to get money out.) She got an attitude and wanted to know where my bag was, which is typical of employees here.
I would imagine that whether I had a bag or not, I should be able to decline one … especially for a soda. Doesn’t this save the business money (and help the environment)?
The pharmacy here is not good either. I mean, it’s great that if you come here Walgreens has your records and all … but I’m not sure anything is worth coming here.
This location gets 2 stars — 1 for being the only pharmacy easy to walk to from where I live here and one for being somehow associated with my temple.
As a side note, the Happy Harry’s logo is just creepy.
