Walgreen’s

I like Walgreens as a whole but some locations look more like a war-​torn part of Iraq than a drugstore. This is not the case for this bright and beautiful store on Broadway. The store’s lay out is different than most Walgreens so if you think you know your aisles don’t be so sure when you come to this store. The store employees are very knowledgeable and friendly as they know how to smile and greet and not hassle you or make you feel like you are a hoodlum looking to steal a malt liquor can in your shorts. (NOTE: I have never done that, but have witnessed it happen several times) Walgreen’s in general is your typical drugstore but has some grocery items and very well rated cosmetics that rival the big department stores. What do I need a Walgreens? Well I need to feed my Funko Pop Addiction. If you don’t know what a Funko POP is, it is essentially a limited edition bobblehead. The Funkos range from Pop culture to movies, books, TV, etc… Walgreens (not all of them) carry exclusive Funko Pops. These Funkos have a little Walgreens sticker on the front of the Pop. They are considered exclusive and highly sought after. Like I stated earlier, a lot of Walgreens either don’t carry exclusives or don’t have any Funko Pops. I am not sure why, but it isn’t because they have sold out since I check the UPC tag on the shelf. If you shop at Walgreens regularly, you might as well sign up for their rewards program. It’s one of the best out there and when it is used in conjunction with their coupons, there are real saving to be had. So, I know everyone is wondering if there were exclusive Pops at this location, well, I won’t say, you’ll have to check it out for yourself.

I was so excited when they put in this walgreens near where we live. It’s so convenient having a pharmacy nearby and the pharmacists are always so helpful. Our daughter’s pediatrician of right down the street so it is really convenient to go pick up prescriptions there. The rest of the store is always neat and clean and the staff are always helpful. They have some of the best clearance too. I always check out their after holiday clearance because I can get some great stuff super cheap. Their candy aisle is always one of the first stops I make after a holiday. Some of their everyday prices can be a bit more than I like to spend but they have great sales. I love how their app allows me to clip coupons to my rewards card so there is no need for me to be sorting through coupons. They are just immediately applies once I put in the phone number for my rewards card at the check out counter.

The pharmacy workers are great. Always friendly, prompt and courteous. It’s the regular cashiers who are quite rude and unwelcoming. On this particular night I don’t know if it’s because of how I looked, but I caught one of the workers watching me more than twice, like I was about to steal something– just staring me down! So rude!!! I don’t know if she was a manager because she was dressed in a gray pantsuit but I sure as h€ll am never giving them my business again… We’ll except for the pharmacy; they’re awesome

The closest option to the Courtyard across the way.
There is a good selection of snacks, some wine and some beer.
Location is clean and well stocked and a number of staff usually around.
There are a number of entrances and exits which makes it easy to get to and from!
The staff isn’t always super helpful — like the time i thought the total was too high and instead of asking if i remembered to enter my code, just shrugged…
So always remember to enter your code before you begin your transaction!

The Pharmacist Rich is an incredible. He always does a great job of explaining and answering any questions that may arise as well as strives to help you receive the best service possible. He is friendly and is great at remembering his patients!

everytime a walgreens opens they upgrade. the pharmacy is cleanly laid out and the pharmacy techs were really helpful. love the new layout especially the beauty section. and you cant beat the location downtown on broadway and front
