Tips**
-Curate a list of items to purchase before you go…read more This place is packed solid with consumers and there aren't any personnel available to walk around and assist you.
-Plan on being there for awhile. This is a large store and the layout has a lot of rooms, hallways, twists and turns. It's also wall to wall customers so it will take a lot of time to get around.
-If you're international and want a tax refund you need to checkout at the register in the luxury section/ lower level. I wasted a good 45 min waiting in line at the register near the entrance only to have to turn around and wait at the other.
-Be patient. When I went there were two groups of international tourists with guides standing in front of different sections translating all of the products. An inconvenience, but if you're in the right mindset and aware before it's easy enough to maneuver around them.
-Try going on Sunday. This is one of the few pharmacies that is open on Sunday in the city and it's a better than a Thur, Fri, or Sat.
All that being said, this Pharmacie is AMAZING. HUGE selection, lots of flash sales, and the staff at checkout are very kind and speak enough English to successfully check you out.
