Walgreens

You might not think of a drugstore as a pit stop, but I’m telling you this is the best pit stop I’ve found between Ponchatoula, LA and Noxapater, MS.
It’s clearly visible and easily accessible from Highway 25, just northeast of the Dogwood shopping area across from Wal-​Mart and the Flowood water tower. I stopped in to get some essentials and realized what a great pit stop! The restrooms are at the back of the store, and they are clean and roomy. Being a drug store, it has aisles for stretching the legs and there’s interesting merchandise to look at and buy — healthy road snacks too.
Sure, you have to stop somewhere else for gas, but gassing up can be done at the pumps. Why go inside a dirty convenience store that has filthy restrooms and smells like fried chicken livers when you can mosey on down the road and stop at a clean store?
Because the parking spaces are close to the door, the Flowood Wal-green’s also beats out St. Dominic’s Hospital (which also has clean restrooms). Also, like St. Dominic’s, the Walgreens is open on holidays.
