COVID-19 BOOSTER EXPERIENCE REVIEW…read more My appointment was scheduled online through walgreens.com by my partner. We went to Walgreens together on the same day for our boosters. This was our first time getting a vaccination at Walgreen, let alone at a pharmacy. Here's the deal - A few days before your appointment, you get a confirmation email sent to the address used when you scheduled. The email contains your confirmation number for the appointment and instructions on what to do before and on the day of your appointment (get there 15 minutes earlier, wear a short sleeve shirt, bring your ID and vaccination card, and fill out a screening form). WHEN YOU GET TO THE STORE: - Walk to the back right of the store to the pharmacy. The pharmacy line starts along the wall to the right. (I saw some people take a seat without getting in line first thinking it's a different process for vaccines - it's not, so get in line to be seen and let them know you are there for a shot). - Have with you your government ID card, a copy or the actual vaccination card (which you will give to them to verify and later mark with proof of your visit/shot), and your medical/pharmacy insurance cards in case they need it (if you're not an already Walgreens customer in the system or your med/rx info needs updating). WHEN YOU GET TO THE PHARMACY COUNTER: - 1st time at counter: You'll give your 1) confirmation number from the email 2) your last name and birth date. They'll take your vaccination card from you, and then ask you to take a seat and wait for your name to be called. They are taking the vaccination card to verify the information before continuing with intake. - 2nd time at the counter: After they call your name to come to the counter, they'll hand you over a clipboard with the vaccination screening form (questions about symptoms, allergies to medicine, etc) to fill out. Take a seat and fill out the form, then hand it back to them when finished. You'll take a seat again and wait for your name to be called again. - 3rd time at the counter: They'll call your name and walk you over to the enclosed area where they administer vaccines. It's a small booth with high wall partitions and a door that closes. I noticed store noise is muffled and the space was clean. You'll take a seat, and the staff associate will have the needle, alcohol pad, and bandage for you. It's very quick. Then you're done.** ** you're supposed to wait 15 minutes after the shot to make sure no weird/sudden side effects, so I recommend taking a seat again for that time just in case you leave the store and something happens. Err on the side of caution. IN SHORT: Overall, an easy and fairly smooth process. My advice would be to schedule your appointment when the pharmacy would be less busy because it's one wait line, so you're in line with people getting their prescriptions and walk-ins, so your TOTAL WAIT TIME WILL VARY - even though you have an appointment time - depending on how busy it is. For example, I was through within about 25-30 minutes. My partner was there for an hour. Our appointments were separated by 15 minutes, but there was an influx of customers who came in when he was just getting in queue.

I think we spent more time circling the block trying to find a parking spot (either on the street…read moreor in the store's small lot) than actually in the store itself. We were able to find what we wanted - eventually. The layout isn't really obvious, and the signs weren't always easy to see. The carpeting looks like it could use a good cleaning too. But this is still probably the best place to visit in the area for your pharmaceutical and convenience needs.

This pharmacy/beauty store is located in the Continental (now United) terminal. The place was…read moresurprisingly well-stocked, reasonably priced for most items, and cute! Also, the presentation was pretty good since the store was brightly lit and there were so much pretty packaging in the store. The last store I'd expect in Newark Airport... There are a lot of beauty items (think eye creams, lotions, serums, etc.) and some health items (cold medicine, etc.) There are also some cute knick-knacks. I picked up this decent neck pillow for the plane for $12.99 + tax. Stop by if you just like browsing beauty items or if you need some health item last minute.

I to prefer Ferry Wines for wine (and I think they might be slightly cheaper though this may be inaccurate). But Olshins is a good option to have for alcohol purchases. There is also parking right behind it which is a plus.

Pharmacist is on a weird power trip. Refused to accept faxed prescription transfer order, which is industry standard. Instead demanded a phone call, during their hours which closes at 5 pm. And, was a real smug jerk about it. Don't go here. If they can't fill your prescription due to lack of stock, they'll hold it hostage until this guy get things his way.

This location has many problems, The female pharmacist is slow and makes personal phone calls while…read morefilling prescriptions there are 3 people filling prescriptions. And you still have to wait one hour even more sometimes. The pharmacists there do not know their jobs. They are rude and plain out stupid. They constantly make mistakes on prescriptions, and refill Because I call whenever I need refill. They constantly miscount the amount of pills prescribed by my doctor, I always told them easy open caps, instead they put the child guard caps and I have to push them to put the easy open caps. They constantly change vendors and they do not inform me. Because I see the pills are different and I constantly have to ask them if I am taking the right prescription. The pharmacist manger told me I was a trouble maker and remembers me from CVS . When I haven't been to a CVS in ten years. He told me that I should transfer to another pharmacy and not to come to rite aid. I have made several calls to corporate about this pharmacy and don't return calls and they just don't care.
