Walgreens

Definitely agree with the other posters — the panhandlers are a regular fixture out front who even get nasty if you walk by without forking over your change. I’m on a fixed income as being retired –I can’t afford to give handouts to people who probably make more in a few hours begging than I do collecting my benefit once a month that I worked all my life for. I’m all for donating to charity but there’s a time and place–
Everything is locked down — maybe the panhandlers also shoplift here?
I usually stop in for the brand of ecig supplies I use but they are rarely even stocked with them. I have even made a point of asking the manager if he could see to ordering more and was just given a hurried yes without him even bothering to write anything down so I’m sure when I stop next week they’ll still be out of them. There’s only one other store that carries what I need but of course there’s no parking so I guess the parking is the reason for my two stars — very unusual in New Brunswick. Pretty much the only reason to stop here. Oh yeah — two register island with only one ever manned.

This Walgreens is walking distance from me and is open ²⁴⁄₇ which is very convenient. There are a lot of people outside who ask you for change which is annoying and the area overall seems sketchy (especially at night). There is usually only one person working the cashier which is annoying.

Tito’s review is helpful and true. Most of the items are locked and require an employee to unlock for you to purchase. Shoplifting must be a major problem here.
Other than that, the bright side is that there’s ample free parking, which is uncommon for New Brunswick businesses. Also this store is open 24 hours in a convenient location, which is another plus.

Garbage store. 95% of items are locked down and require an employee to access, but no employees are to be found. Waited 15 minutes for a $ 3 TOOTHBRUSH and no one came to open the case. Shampoo, batteries, deodorant… everything requires an employee to unlock. Never coming back.
