Walgreens

How can you call yourself a pharmacy when you aren’t even open on a Sunday — at all??! I guess people who work Mon-​Sat are just not entitled to have a day off from work to run their errands and get their prescription, and of course, you better not get ill on Sunday or have some sort of emergency because you’ll be SOL, huh? To make matters worse, there are no hours posted anywhere either, so you’re left in the dark as to their schedule.
I tried asking an employee about the pharmacy’s hours and complained about them not being open, before realizing the only thing the guy knew how to say in English was «closed». When he was unable to answer my question as to their actual hours, that is when I realized my complaints fell on deaf ears because he didn’t understand a lick of what I had just said. I ended up going to Google to find out their pharmacy hours, but the point is, I shouldn’t have to. Their hours should be posted somewhere within plain sight (like on the metallic roll-​down shutters they have on the pharmacy counter), and at the very least, they should be open 7 days a week, even if it means closing earlier on a Sunday.
I am seriously considering switching my prescription to another location or to CVS, even though this location is within walking distance from my condo. I am sure my review will make no difference to the management of this store, but maybe it can save others from wasting their time trying to come to the pharmacy and finding it closed.
From the Walgreens website:

What a bad service with customer services. No one help you to open the secure cage of pills medicine. To bad

So upset this Walgreens is across the street from where I am staying staff and manager are rude not all but most. If u ask them something they answer u with an attitude. Not the 1^st time every year if it wasn’t so convenient because it is close I wouldn’t step a foot in this store!

The pharmacy here is just awful. I worked as a pharmacy tech for Walgreens several years ago, so I know from first hand experience how frustrating the job can be. However, that is never an excuse to be rude to customers. Both the pharmacists and techs at this location clearly hate their jobs and don’t bother to hide it. Too bad this is the only pharmacy within convenient walking distance from where I live.

Fully stocked, and they usually had enough employees manning the checkouts that we never waited too long. Lots of sunscreen options, and for you out-​of-​towners like me, they also sold wine and beer, at prices a lot cheaper than the «I Love Liquor» shops further south on Collins Ave. Be sure to stock up here, and you’ll save a lot on wine (not the most impressive selection, but you can make it work). Huge sunscreen selection, which was a nice touch.

This corner Walgreens was about a 5 minute walk from our hotel so nice and convenient. We couldn’t decide what to have for a light dinner and didn’t want to go to any of the nearby restaurants so we picked up food here (and we didn’t have to pay 15 or 18% gratuity and it was better service).
There are a number of Walgreens within walking distance of our hotel in Walgreens and this one isn’t as nice as some of the others. There’s your basics but there didn’t seem to be as much touristy type stuff for the beach and t-​shirts as the other one I went to.
I bought a sushi tray (decent for buying it at Walgreens), sandwiches, chips, ice cream, and chocolate. Yes, healthy vacation eating! There was a line up forming as the cosmetician rang us through at her till. There were a few items that we needed the rewards card and she couldn’t ring it through so she walked me back to the front and the girl rang it through there. That was nice she helped me before the next customer and used the phone number of a nearby hotel so I would get the rewards price.
Decent Walgreens but giving it 3 instead of 4 because it’s a little smaller, and busier with only one cashier.

Nice Walgreens in Miami that was located right by our hotel.
They had a good selection here of foods, snacks and general items. The store does tend to get a bit busy as it is located closer to the hotels in South Beach.
We picked up some sun block and some snacks for the beach.
Prices were about the same as other Walgreens, which is to say more expensive that most other drug stores.

Really close to my hotel right now which is clutch.
But
CVS up a block and a half on Lincoln is better. Here your $ 11 in for a 6 pack of can coronas. You will also be in $ 3 for a largish water.
I walked out of here with a 6 pack, two medium waters and two bananas for about $ 22. I walked out with this plus a bottle of wine and a protein bar at CVS for $ 20.
It’s not bad but if you are looking to feather your hotel nest walk a bit more and save some cash.

ths walgreen was right up the street from my hotel. the are open ²⁴⁄₇ and you get all you need. their prices are really good for being on collins avenue.

4 stars for 24 hours! When I loved on 20^th, I would walk here 2 – 3 times a day to get diet coke, rent movies, but the conditioner I just saw on TV, whatever… good location. Now the bad… its a «Tourist Walgreens» meaning just about everything is priced double or more than it would be a Walgreens a mile or so inland… and the pharmacy has a limited stock of controlled substances, if you need any kind of upper end pain reliever, they will send you and your prescription to a different Walgreens.

It’s open 24 hours on Collins Ave. If you need a snack, water, or something to cool that tan that is really sunburn, you know exactly where you have to go. Spoiled by the upgraded clean look Duane Reade and other Pharmacies/​Stores have in NYC I was not impressed with the 1970’s brown/​grey carpeting.

Okay, this place gets four stars from me, based on the TREMENDOUS selection of ear plugs. Why did I need ear plugs, you might ask? Well, I’ll tell ya. A $ 2000/​night room at the W Hotel next door and the first night I slept in the damn suite, it was so loud (on the 9^th floor, mind you), that I ended up cranking up the air conditioning to make some white noise in the sitting room where I stayed — without sleeping — all night. Thankfully, I did not end up paying $ 2000/​night for the room. But that is a story for another time.
Let’s get back to those earplugs, shall we? Seven different types. Seven! And reasonably priced, too. Oh, Walgreens, how I love thee!
They also had a fabulous selection of alcohol, but they could not sell it after 11pm. No matter. Everyone who was in there at midnight was already drunk.

This is one of the better Walgreens. The store is clean and well organized. The staff is courteous and the lines never get too long. When they see too many people on line, they open another register. Open 24 hrs

Out of all the Walgreens I’ve visited thus far, dare i say this one was the BEST i’ve been to so far.
A+ for convenience for nearby hotels, and much cheaper to buy things here than at the hotel. They are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Great hot spot in Miami.
I don’t know if parking really exists for this location, but they have a steady flow of traffic from customers who purchased groceries and beach going needs here.
My favorite part about this place: right across the street from most of the hotels & beach!
Yaya! I’m a fan!

Was in the area waiting on someone to finish up with a meeting and I spotted Walgreen’s. Open 24/​7, very clean and organized and the cashier was very friendly. It is always nice that they keep their flyer by the main entrance so you can pick it up and see what is on special.
I prefer Walgreen’s over any other drugstore, so many items you can get here. This store being on the beach had beach wear, hats, sunglasses, beverages, everything you may need to make your day at the beach more pleasant.
I did grab a few items and did notice their everyday pricing was a tad higher than other locations but hey, convenience is important. Nice store that is centrally located, clean, with good service.

I think we in here 500 times in the three day period we were in Miami. Pretty much a go to place for everything. I think we got superglue, snacks, alcohol, water, safety pins, band-aids…EVERYTHING. There are random cheap souvenirs too… if you’re that.

Everything you need to get through the days in Miami. Great selection of chocolate, candy and sunblock.

Any Walgreens where you can buy empanadas at 4 am has a special place in my little heart, so I picked up a chicken and a ham/​cheese one. They were tipping on the tippy point of being disgusting, but just the availability won me over. I saw them stocking the cabinet, but the pastries were still cold? Bizarro.

Walgreens is my fave store EVER! The ones in California are the BEST as the liquor store section is in the store = no 2 trips to the cash register like here in Fl. Why this is I have NO IDEA except this is FL and its a «Yahoo, backwoods» state with idiotic archiac laws.
I call Walgreens the «Sugar & Salt» store because basically thats the majority of the food products they are selling. A day NOT going to Walgreens is a void in my life that I feel. OK they do have ALOT of «Made in China» garbage & the «sugar & salt» food items, but on the other hand they have the awesome Camera deal = a small compact camera for $ 10 and free film for life. BEAT THAT… Good luck because its the best deal around.
I usually buy the $ 1 snack items they have on a daily basis = the Sante Fe mix and the Granola. The 20 oz. Walgreens Diet Soda’s (wt caffine) @ .99 -.69 are good for a quick jolt and I absolutly CANNOT live witfout the .99 cent box of Wylers Pink Lemonade & Lemonade mix as I mix them wt vodka. Its the same thing as Crystal Light just not overpriced at $ 5 for the same thing.
THis particular Walgreens (23^rd Collins) might as well be a CVS though (I HATE CVS!!) because it rarely has what I’m going in for and is FREEZING COLD and sucks, so I avoid it. The others on the beach are cool so its nbd. IF I have any complaint about Walgreens other than this, its the music they play which tends to be 60’s-70’s off beat pop crap. For instance today some song «Henry the 8^th I am, I am».Crap you’d never intentionally listen to in a million years and GOD FORBID one of THOSE songs gets stuck in your head! LOL! Other than that I have very few complaints.
A day without going to Walgreens is like a big Hole in my life. lol! Its so true…

I actually work next door to this Walgreens (at a business I will not disclose at this time)… let me tell you, this store is my and my coworker’s SAVING GRACE! Open 24/​7, the beverage fridge looks like disney land… brand new, shiny, untouched…
The store just opened, so everything is clean and brand new. Perfect location if you are staying at the Gansevoort or the W South Beach, because its right across the street.
They carry beachwear and a wide selection munchies.
I’m a fan!
