    I would like to commend Walgreens for taking a high profile vacant retail space on The Hill and…read moreproviding a selection of goods that goes beyond duplication of what else is available in the immediate neighborhood. That being said, it is a real shame they have not followed the lead of a major national competitor and removed the sale of cigarettes from their supposed health oriented business plan. They have filled all three levels of this former bookstore facility. The basement level is the vitamin, supplements, first aid and quasi medical supplies that you would find in other chains, offering both national brands and private store brands. Plenty of sizes available which seems to be a failing of the big groceries and discount box stores. There is no prescription pharmacy at this location. Being adjacent to campus, they are serving a population that generally receives University healthcare which includes their own, and very affordable pharmacy. The main level still sells CU gear as before along with school supplies, tech accessories and gift items. There is a grocery section including refrigerated and freezer cases of convenience foods. The upper mezzanine level includes beauty, personal care and household cleaning supplies. On opening day, there was plenty of staff and checkouts on the main floor and the mezzanine. I doubt they will maintain so much staff unless they attract a larger number of customers. The prices are higher than you would find at a destination big box but if you sign up for rewards membership, it becomes far more competitive. This is true of all such health chains. Today my member savings was over $8. Get rid of the cigarettes and I will go up a star!

    Located on The Hill, across the street from the University of Colorado's Western edge, this store…read morehas solid customer service, late hours (open until midnight), and three levels of items. Parking immediately north of the building, but limited. Easy access from campus via a nearby pedestrian underpass and adjacent to a RTD stop (Broadway & College). Freezer and fridge contains a lot of beverage and food options. Any of your usual needs at a Walgreen's are available, but there is no pharmacy on-site. Clean and very organized. Thankful for Karen, who was so helpful when i was shopping on the top floor.

    The meds are cheaper, so if you have a prescription that you have to pay for without insurance,…read morethey are the place to go!

    Pros: Timely text reminders when prescriptions are ready. Very fast turn around time for filling…read moreorders. Short hold times when calling to speak with pharmacy staff. Cons: Genuinely the worst pharmacy experience we've had in over 15 years of filling meds, and I think we kept trying only because of how absurd it was. My doctor had picked this pharmacy to send my meds as it was local and he saw it had the best ratings. First prescription that was sent it was no problem, super quick fill and the person my husband spoke to was incredibly helpful and kind and they were able to fill another one right then and there.  Third prescription that was sent in, we received a text that it was on back order with no ETA. It's a daily med but we're used to it being out of stock some months. I called to check if they knew if this would be a longer back order (if so, I could try elsewhere) or if they could tell me alternatives to try. Melanie said she didn't know when it would be available, very short, no concern or any helpful guidance. But ok, that's fine we can wait. 4 days go by and I call again to check if in stock or if I should try and transfer. Melanie again, did not ask my name or medication I needed, only cut me off to say any transfer has to be initiated by the other pharmacy. Alright. I call my other pharmacy and they very nicely explain that unfortunately it can't be transferred. They (CVS) are nice, understanding, express concern and overall helpful. At this point I'm just hoping I can either try an alternative or have a way of knowing my prescription will be filled, my doctor has been communicative and willing to send a substitute prescription. I call and get Melanie again. Very short and borderline rude at this point, I assume she remembers my last call and is annoyed. Fair, I'm annoyed as well. I explain the situation and ask if an alternative med is in stock, but only the brand is. It ends up being $400 for a 30 day supply which is insane as the usual price for my other med is around $35. You would think Melanie would mention the potential for such a high price discrepancy. Maybe I'm the problem though, so my husband volunteers to go in for me to ask them to return the other med to stock and make sure they will be able to fill either prescription for generic when they come in. At this point it's been over a week since I'm out of medication, which is rough. Melanie tells my husband, loudly and from behind the counter, before even saying hi or anything, "I already told her we only have Brand in." Wow. My husband accepts this and asks if they will let us know when they can fill medication, acknowledging it may be another week or more. Melanie tells him they have no way of tracking out of stock medication, that she would have to check my profile daily and they don't do that. She advises best bet is to fill at a chain store or call in every few days to check if it's in. At no point in any of these interactions with Melanie did she express any kind of understanding for missed doses, try and help find an alternative, offer to call any other branch of GoodDay or literally offer anything but annoyance at having to deal with me and my husband.
