Walgreens

I wanted to say thank you to Susan in the pharmacy for making my GI cocktail in a timely fashion. I had gone to 2 other places before going to her for my rx and it was nice that she actually knew what it was and how to mix it unlike Walmart who looked at me like a deer caught in headlights. If I hadn’t gone to this Walgreens I would still be in an incredible amount of pain. I know where I am going from now I need something mixed like this.

I find that no matter where I’m at there’s always a Walgreens to take care of my needs. Recently I caught a bug and I needed to get my sleep to be ready for work the next day. It was then I knew I needed to get some seriously strong drugs to heal me up quick. A box of pseudoephedrine and acetaminophen later I was back on top. To me their brand drugs work just as good as the name brand stuff.

Was sick as a dog this weekend and Walgreens took care of me. I hate being sick and especially hate spending money of drugs to get better. Couldn’t sleep felt congested and my throat would not stop hurting. Went here late at night to get as much over the counter drugs I could buy to make this sickness more manageable. Was in and out in 15 minutes. I picked up throat lozenges, some flu medicine, and even a humidifier. Wasn’t cheap but wasn’t crazy expensive either. I got everything in Walgreens brand to save a couple bucks.

Stay far, far away. I’ve had to go here with a friend a couple of times, and they always seem like they have better things to do than help their customers. Pharmacy has lost prescriptions, and claimed they had been picked up when they haven’t. Store tends to be dirty, unlike most of the other Walgreens around.
Oh, and they keep their bathroom locked, and you have to wait until they get around to letting you in. I am not in fifth grade and can decide for myself when I need to go. This is the only Walgreens I’ve seen that is like this. Isn’t a drug store all about making people healthy? It’s not healthy to make someone do the pee-​pee dance before finally giving up and going into the Jack in the Box next door.
Bottom line: There are much, much better drug stores in town that don’t have initials for their names. We love the Walgreens on Vista (review of that one coming): go there if you are in Sparks.
I finally convinced my friend to move his prescriptions away from the intersection of «Indolent» and «Inept.»

Pretty average for a Walgreens. However, it doesn’t have the standard «local» area with postcards, shirts, mugs, etc from the city it’s in. It’s kind of frustrating when it seems all other Walgreens offer something and you go to find it, and this one doesn’t have it. The people have always been nice and friendly.

much better prices than CVS Pharmacy, and much better service as well. they also have a good selection of stock on the floor, with great deals.

Don’t waste your time waiting in line. And DONT GO TO ANOTHER REGISTER when they tell u there is no waiting. They lie. Horrible customer service. Got what I needed cheaper across the street at CVS.

5 Unilocal*stars???
Absolutely YES!!!
I drove all over Reno and Sparks looking for a pharmacy that was open at 10:00 at night. I Unilocal*ed for CVS, and there was supposed to be one a hop, skip, and jump away from where I was at yesterday evening. It wasn’t. I drove to one CVS near Lakeside (?) but that was closed. So… I drove allllllllllll along Kietzke just trying to find a place where I could buy achy, fever, stuffy nose, and sore throat medicine for myself and my 5 year old. I ended up in Sparks at this very Walgreens.
Thank you for being open 24 hours!!! Thank you for having the medicine that my son and I needed!!! It sucks that I had to drive freekin’ all over Reno and Sparks to find this place (really though… *nothing* was available or open… Grrrrrrr!!!).
Oh, the employee I ran into in the medicine aisle wasn’t all too helpful, but he was totally cool about things and very honest about what he knew and didn’t know. I’m sorry I can’t give him proper props ’cause I didn’t get his name. Ms. Monica, who rang up my meds, was very nice, too!!! Oh!!! And I was greeted quite nicely as I rushed into the pharmacy!!! Yay for nice 24-​hour Walgreens employees!!!

Well, lets see. Hmm: o how do you review a Walgreens. The store was clean, staff friendly. It is in a convenient location, easy in and easy out. Has the drive thru drug window, so you can get your drugs without getting out of your car. Sometimes has good sales, other than that a little pricey. But most of you already know that, but we go there because it is quick and easy.
