Located in the heart of Squirrel Hill, a bustling neighborhood in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, lies a…read moreRite Aid that I've frequented during my visits to the area. Situated on Murray Avenue, this pharmacy has been a convenient stop for my family's needs, especially when it comes to grabbing essentials for my children. I recall a time when my son was feeling under the weather, and I needed to get him some Gatorade and cough drops. I quickly made my way to the Rite Aid, assuming they would have the items I needed. However, as I stepped inside, I noticed that the store seemed a bit lackluster compared to its usual appearance. The shelves weren't fully stocked, and there was an air of disorganization that I hadn't experienced during my previous visits. Rite Aid drugstores filed for bankruptcy 10 months ago. Since that time, stores have been closing at a rapid rate and many that are still open are filled with empty shelves. So some of the issues here are expected.  Navigating through the aisles, I eventually found the Gatorade and but not the cough drops that I was looking for. The checkout process was smooth, but I couldn't help but wonder about the store's current state. It appeared that the Rite Aid was going through some issues.  This Rite Aide is in my daughter's neighborhood and I usually stop in here on my visits to Pittsburgh. This time I needed to get some Gatorade for #1 son and some cough drops as he was coming down with sniffles on my last day of our visit.  Bottom line: It's close and convenient for both my kids and I hope this Rite Aide survivestheor difficulties and can come back to their previous conditions.

If you are a late-night CVS-goer, be aware that the self checkouts go offline around 2:30am and need to be reset, so you're better off going to the counter if you're on a 3am snack run.

I can go down the street and I do not have lunch hours, end of day at 6 PM, etc. I do not want the pharmacists to work more hours; CVS needs to employ a few more pharmacists and just stay open when people can make it. For me, this CVS has ceased to exist.

All employees were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and patient. We actually arrived close to their closing time, yet they were happy to stay late to answer all of my questions. They carry the high end vitamins and supplements that I can usually only get online. They were able to make recommendations based on my symptoms and were happy to address each one in its entirety. Not only were they able to help me, they also had some suggestions to help my pup as well. We will absolutely utilize and support this local business going forward instead of ordering our stuff on Amazon. I am all for holistic approaches to common problems and am confident in the advice they gave.
