I am in town for a quick getaway and it occurred to me that usually where there is a Rite Aid there…read moreis thrifty ice cream. I called ahead wanting to make sure that this location had it. See my other review where you can see that I take my thrifty ice cream seriously. The person that answered was soo friendly. They said that they had the ice cream to purchase in the frozen food section and also hand served cones. Bingo!!! I asked if they would serve at anytime if I went and they said sure, that as long as the store was open they would serve the ice cream. I went the next morning. Ice cream for breakfast.....yes please!!!!! So many choices, I got two cones for myself, one at a time. Pistachio and Butter Pecan. Smooth. The best!!!! The cashier was so friendly. I told her what had happened to me at another rite aid and how I had come from far....she stated that I was always welcome to get ice cream there. Thanks for such an enjoyable experience. A stroll down memory lane and enjoying thrifty ice cream is priceless!!!!

I used to "pharm" at Rite Aid on the Mesa, but about 4 years ago or so, it seemed there were always…read moreissues with my insurance not covering meds and I'd take the scripts across the street to CVS and there'd be no problem. I switched all my business to CVS. Over the last several years, CVS gets busier and busier and the lines get longer. Meanwhile, Rite Aid has had a major remodel and looks like it's always empty. So, a month ago, I wasn't able to book a same-day appt for a CVS flu shot and since I was up there anyway, I asked if it would be possible to get one. The attendant at the counter told me she'd have to ask the pharmacist and wait. I watched her help the next 2 people in line and then ask the CVS pharmacist. It was easy to read the pharmacist's lips when he spoke to the counter worker. "Who is it?" he asked, adding "we've already got some vaxxers waiting." She indicated my husband and me and he looked over at us and sneered "No" as he looked us up and down like a Studio 54 bouncer. So, we hopped in the car and drove across the street to Rite Aid, where we walked right in and got 2 flu shots without waiting or being sneered at. I'm thinking of switching our pharm biz back to Rite Aid.

I thought, fair enough, and he got a virgin strawberry margarita, setting the precedent that when Mommy and Daddy get special refreshing daytime drinks, Leo B. asks for one, too. Which is why, during a Sunday afternoon stop at M. Special a few doors down, I made a quick trip to this 7-Eleven to buy my son a Slurpee. I think this was my first time buying a Slurpee in my adult life. I hadn't realized there were so many flavors, or that the smallest available size was a medium. I settled on an orange pineapple Slurpee and ran it out to my child. (I'm afraid I didn't spend any more time browsing the 7-Eleven for Yelp review purposes, but I'm guessing it was similar to other 7-Elevens.) Surprise surprise, he loved it. Look, is it the best move to bribe your two-year-old with fluorescent orange sugar ice just so you can drink your beer in peace on a balmy, beautiful afternoon? Yes, absolutely, it is. We did take the precaution of telling him Slurpees were a Santa Barbara only treat (never mind that there's one right next to his school), but really, no regrets.

Anybody who has followed my reviews for any serious amount of time knows that Santa Barbara is my…read morewife and my favorite getaway spot. It's very much our home away from home and where we escape to when we want to decompress. I can safely say that I know State St. pretty well, and it's always interesting to see when businesses are added or deleted from the browsing lineup. I'm confused, though. How is this place not on Yelp already? *scratches head* This 7-11 location has been open for approx 2 years and is located on the corner of State Street and Ortega St, right next to Antique Alley and across the street from the Paseo Nuevo mall. Honestly, almost all 7-11's in the USA are pretty similar. Nothing really makes them stand out. What makes this place shine is its location. As everybody knows, State Street is lined with all sorts of boutique stores, restaurants, coffee shops, etc. And some of them can be pricey. Its also a VERY touristy area. Until recently, State St. had both a Rite Aid and a CVS for people to duck into if they needed snacks or sodas. With Rite Aid closing, however, this 7-11 fills a needed gap. The location is small without being too small, and it's bigger on the inside than it appears. You'll find all the items you'd expect to find here are reasonable prices. And hey... sometimes you just NEED a Spicy Big Bite or a Slurpey in your life, even on posh State St. Am I right? The location is always busy, and surprisingly clean, and the employees are usually friendly. A solid 3 stars for here; but I can't help but toss in a 4th for its super convenient location. This spot is a prime example of why Yelp needs to allow half-star ratings!

He insulted me saying, "I don't know where you're from, but you shouldn't be using the machine since you don't know what you're doing." I live across the street. Ridiculous and unprofessional.
