Walgreens

I was at this walgreens shopping for groceries. This bald employee with hair on the sides down to his shoulders kept on following me throughout the store. Every isle I would go to he would follow me and pretend to «face» the products. He did this for the duration I was in the store, I would go to a different isle he would happen to pop up there also. Idk if its the way I look or what his deal is, but he was very obvious and ridiculous. I don’t need harassment when shopping. Needless to say I will be shopping elsewhere.

The pharmacy staff were so helpful, I couldn’t believe it! My prescription is very rare and urgent. They actually phoned around to find a store that had it on stock. Ask for Mike, he’ll find anything :)

Since I started filling out the surveys at the bottoms of my receipts (and making my boyfriend do the same), there seems to be a complete management turnaround at this store. I no longer see any of the old managers here — they have all been replaced. The impact on the store is noticeable. Everyone seems friendly, and I no longer see gaggles of people outside smoking. There is one of the managers (a new one, 5“5′ or so, with shoulder length, medium brown hair) was outside smoking when I was there at 9:45pm within the last week (the poor clerk had to keep calling for someone 21 and older to ring up the alcohol), and based off a conversation with my boyfriend, the same situation with the same manager happened on another occasion.
I’ve also had a number of experiences with the pharmacy since my last review. The pharmacy staff here is THE BEST! 5 stars. I had Lasik last week, and there was a problem between my insurance and the coupons for the eye drops the surgeon had given me. The morning of my surgery (I’d been given the coupons and Rx the day before), the pharmacist took care of me — calling and verifying my insurance info with the company, and then personally calling each manufacturer in order to save me a ton of money (from $ 300 down to $ 50). They definitely went the extra mile and I’m SO grateful. We had to leave to get to the surgery on time, and she was still on hold, so they gave me the Rx at the discounted price so I could be on time, and said she’s call me if there was a problem. The pharmacist was an older (50ish) woman with shoulder length curvy hair. She needs a raise.
It’s nice to be reassured that Walgreens is taking care of the problem staff at this location. I just wish that customers weren’t sacrificed because of a particular manger’s routine need for cigarette breaks (when there aren’t enough staff to handle said break).

The cashiers here are extremely rude. They yell at their customers. And they tell customers how much they hate other customers. Very unprofessional.
