    This used to be my go to since it's only a block away from my house. I used to come here at least 2…read moreto 3 times a week. I have my Cvs membership card and it would give me coupons periodically. As well as some dollars off my next purchases too. I would come back to try to use them up whenever they expired, though not really needing anything in particular, just that feeling I should use the coupon. However, after some time shopping here for years and not really thinking about the cost of what I was buying. I realized many of the products that they sell here are at a higher price than what I would get at Meijer and other bigger stores. It always seemed like I was getting a deal with a Coupon, but in reality the retail price here was already up charged from big store prices from the start, so that one could use a coupon to get it back to the original price it would be at any other big stores. I would normally have bought all my hair products, makeup, body and face stuff, vitamins and other miscellaneous items as well as cards here. For a while now they no longer sell any other greeting cards, but Hallmark. So all of their greeting cards are on the higher end and pricier here now. I mostly come here now to pick up prescriptions and periodic items here and there, when I'm in a pinch and need something quick and easy and fast. Realizing that I will be paying more here and then going to another bigger store. It's all after all about convenience and not fair pricing at CVS.

    I used to come here. Switched to RiteAid a half mile away. But after 5-plus years there, the…read moreRiteAid went out of business and automatically transferred my scrips back to that Walgreens. And so I was back for over a year I think. The general issues didn't change. Understaffed up front. Not all that helpful in the back. This past week, I had trouble getting my continuous glucose monitor. Walgreens was frequently out of stock on an item that is replaced regularly like clockwork. Well 3 weeks ago, when my doctor had it refilled, Walgreen's only filled 15 days out of a 90 day script. When I sought a refill from Walgreen's, they said I first needed a prior authorization. This seemed odd, but it's the first month of the year. So I called my doctor. They said: I still had 5 refills left. Walgreens insisted I still needed a prior authorization. So I called my doctor yet again. And the doctor said they'd call the pharmacy. And the pharmacy was still adamant! Wouldn't fill my glucose sensor. The person on the phone was rude. The prior use of the automated system was difficult if you sought to speak to the pharmacist. Walgreens also said it didn't have my particular sensor in stock. They didn't. Then had to ask them if they'd check other Walgreens (several are fairly close). And they did upon being asked. But the Walgreens they sent me to had only the newer version of my sensor which would require a new script from the doctor. Well - that was enough. Enough was enough. I'd now Bern without my diabetes glucose sensor for a couple days! It's my life they're gambling with. Called CVS across the street. Told them to have all my scripts transferred to them from the Walgreen's across the street. Asked if they had the particular sensor, but that store didn't have it (they only had the newer version too), but said they'd get from another store and have it the next day (it was nearing closing on Saturday). On Sunday, they had my sensor and gave me all 90 days. While I can't know the future with CVS, which some folks complain about) it certainly looks far more promising. Because of Medicare Advantage insurance, I don't know how much business Walgreen's just lost on an annual basis. I have had a whole lot of scripts filled there and previously at RiteAid. Thousands of dollars in value to them? I'd guess so. Note: Rite Aid was often out of my sensor and sometimes out of other drugs I was due. That was quite annoying. I made it a habit to call in the script multiple days early so if it had to be ordered, I'd still get it on time. One huge difference though is that RiteAid was always, very courteous no matter who was there and they always tried hard to help when needed. They were unfortunately often understaffed. But I much preferred RiteAid. So I'm pleased to once again be rid of Walgreens. Hope CVS is good - but the bar is set quite low so I'm sure CVS will at least be an improvement. Should have immediately transferred to RiteAid scripts to CVS. Bye-bye. Thought you readers should know.

    The retail store is a pharmacy/convenience store. Little help from staff but will if asked. This…read moreseems more due to corporate understaffing the store. The pharmacy is okay but nothing great, and prices seem high. They do have a drive thru. But the line is often a bit long. I gobhere but would switch as soon as i find anyplace i like better.

I was headed out and realized I was having car trouble. I sputtered in this gas station and my car broke down. I thought maybe it was Gas so I paid for a few gallons but that wasn't the issue. Two gentlemen helped me park in a parking spot and suggested it may be the fuel pump. I immediately used my AAA service to request a tow truck. I entered the gas station and explained my situation and asked if it was ok to leave my car while I wait. I spoke with the owner who said yes and told me to leave my number. I was on my way to pick up my daughter from daycare so I got a ride and went to pick her up. The store attendant, SHAAD, proceeds to call me every 15 minutes threating to have my car towed or call the police on me if I do not remove my vehicle. I returned and explained that AAA was on their way and there was nothing I could do at the moment. I reminded him I am a member of the community and I live right down the street and he repeated "I don't give a fuck if your my neighbor" and proceeds to call the police on me. The cops show up and I explain the situation and they agree, if the tow truck is on the way, why is it a big deal. I was asked to leave the store, which I did and wait outside. I will say, the store owner called me back to apologize for SHAAD's behavior. I believe in community building and this attendant clearly only cares about the patrons of his store when there is something in it for him, otherwise, in his words "he doesn't give a fuck" Sometimes people just need a bit of help and a kind person and SHAAD was none of that. I will never return to this gas station and I encourage Ferndale Community Members to spend their money somewhere who is invested in the community.

Well, the location is convenient and they have a cool little Leaning Tower of Pisa painted on this stubby little pillar getting its lean on. I feel like it's the last remnant of an old canopy that got demolished? I don't know. But the real reason this basically basic Mobil gets the five star red carpet is free air! It seemed too good to be true so I actually went back inside to ask if it wasn't out of order while I was waiting for my tank to fill up with planet poison. Lo and behold, it's free and it works! It's sad that's all it takes for me to shower stars on a gas station the way Chef Salt Bae showers salt on a plate of food in a probably already sadly dated meme but there you have it. The Valero near my parents condo is a whopping two dollars for the air machine. And, as another reviewer has noted, this here Mobil has a nice industrial strength air machine, too. So that's the skinny here. It's been awhile since I've written a review here and the thing that brought me back was... free air.
