Walgreens

On the corner of happy & healthy (or rather never-​ending traffic congestion and peddlers on Beechnut & Wilcrest) is where you will find this neighborhood Walgreens. Walgreens is my local go-​to for picking up a few essentials when needed with my handy Rewards card. And there is always a friendly, smiling staff member to greet you after you make your way into the store.
The store is clean and inviting. The aisles are organized and clutter-​free in comparison to others I have visited in the area, which are very run down. Sometimes when the cashiers in the front are busy, I can get quickly checked out over by the beauty aisle. Because of the proximity factor, I usually have my prescriptions filled at the pharmacy there and have never had any issues. I hate waiting so I often drop off prescriptions and pick them up later at my leisure. I took my mom there last year for her flu shot and the pharmacist was very nice in taking care of her. There is a photo center too should you need to get your photos printed. The photo service can be slow at times, depending on how busy they are with processing pictures and taking care of other customers. After major holidays, be on the lookout for great deals on reduced/​clearance merchandise.
The prices are higher here but I don’t mind that versus going to Super Walmart or HEB down the street. Their parking lot is almost always busy so be cautious when driving in or leaving. You can enter/​exit from Beechnut or Wilcrest. If you’re in a hurry to grab a few items, stop by this local Walgreens at your convenience.

In a busy area, and on occasion I will be able to find what I need here, and it’s pretty neat and orderly here. Customers are recognized upon entrance, so don’t fear to shop here. Prices are somewhat appropriate for a Walgreens.
