I love that there's a Walgreens downtown, easily accessible via the skywalk. But I hate that it's…read moreclosed on Sunday. Not even open between noon and 5. Nothing. A Walgreens....closed on Sunday. So, no one lives downtown on Sunday? Do they all die and resurrect on Monday morning? Help me understand why a Walgreens on street level in downtown Des Moines is closed on a Sunday (or closes early any other day) when they could make a killing off the people who live, work, and party at the bars, apartments, and offices that literally surround the store's location. Walgreens, are you insane? Do you not see the money walking right past your locked doors?

I feel so lucky we have the downtown Walgreens. If you have a question for a pharmacist, or need…read moresomething on the medial side (glucose tabs, emergency blood sugar test strips, etc), tooth paste, shampoo, or heck you just want a bag of chips! The Walgreens is one stop shop for so many things us downtowners don't have in walking distance! If want to print some photos, If you want to buy a b-day card, or if you just want to find candy hearts for V-day! It's all here! The staff is always really nice and they have a frequent customer card that you can get deals on things! You can get to this location through the skywalks, and the hours are very convenient for the hustle and bustle of downtown residence! Until we have a grocery store downtown, this is a must have in the downtown area for pharmacy needs or for those quick things you may need in a hurry! Toilet Paper anyone?

After a…read moreshipping disaster left me without the documents I needed for a big workshop the next morning, I was in full panic mode. I stopped in here as a last-ditch effort an hour before close, and wow--these guys absolutely saved me. Duncan was kind, patient, and quick to help. I left with everything I needed, stress lifted and ready for my meeting. It's rare these days to find service that genuinely goes above and beyond, but that's exactly what I got here. Super grateful for this Walgreens team!

I hung around town all day, since I live 30 minutes out of town, as it wasn't ready. I came back several hours later after two messages telling me it was ready. There were 4 cars ahead of me. We waited 45 minutes in the drive-thru and then they told me my medicine would not be ready until Monday! I said, "I have two messages saying it's ready and I've been sitting here 45 minutes!" She checked again and I finally got it! Because of such a long wait, we were then late to a birthday party we were originally hoping to be early to! I will not be going back!

I love this walgreens. I love the staff, I love the pharmacy staff, I love the clearance items. The…read morebiggest issue I have, is that the upfront manager, and the cashiers, have to be body guards, cops, AND "parents", as well as the jobs that they were hired to do. It is INFURIATING to see the way they are treated, by the little snots that go to the school across the street. If you are a parent, and your kid goes to that school, for the ones that HAVE taught their kids etiquette, thank you. The staff around Park Fair Mall, and the other shoppers, we thank you. For the ones that haven't, shame on you. The higher ups in the Walgreens corporate ladder, REALLY need to think of the wages you are paying these employees, then tag on more. They are doing the jobs of 5 people. And they are doing an AWESOME job. There is a time gap, of when school lets out, that the store has a shift, but ANY time, outside of that half hour/hour, they are able to do what they are needing to do. They are ALWAYS professional, ALWAYS helpful, i have NEVER seen them anything but, even when a group of the kids come in, thinking THEY are running the place. Lol, which they aren't. They have a TOP NOTCH staff.

The pharmacy closed at 6PM and a sign on the door advised the pharmacy would be closed until 10AM Monday. Got text messages all weekend saying my prescription was ready (the pharmacy is closed until Monday) and then a got a text telling me the pharmacy was closed and they would advise when it reopened. Never received any text advising they were reopened but I went there straight from work today and they CLOSED AT 6PM! Tried calling another Walgreens to see if they could fill it and no luck there. I advised that I was leaving at 4:30 AM tomorrow on a trip and was told I could call my Dr's office and have them call the prescription into their location. It is 6:15 at night, the Dr's office closed at 4!!! Horrible customer service and I refuse to deal with this crap any longer. Been a loyal customer for 30+ years but no more. I am moving every single prescription I have out of their reach so hopefully I won't ever have to deal with them again!
