This Walgreens is easily the most convenient simply because it's open 24/7 , so when you're on your way home from the club you can stop and get Electrolytes and ice cream.
I would say it has some of the worst staff known to man.
Whenever I go to the pharmacy, the pharmacy tech refuses, adamantly refuses, to help me by placing my purchased items in a bag. I'm usually stuck walking out with 8 things in my arms, and the staff in front STILL questions me as to why I don't have a bag (questioning if I am REALLY a paying customer or not).
Im still a bit confused as to why they have bags behind the pharmacy counter at all.
The visit that invoked this review was my normal trip, got the same things, same card, but the pharmacy tech was new. She was ON EDGE.
All the items that I usually purchase are tiny, dropped easily, or in large boxes/packages, making them ALL a bit hard to carry without dropping one of the other
So, like any other sane and normal person, I asked the pharmacist for a bag, because they have bags... i could see the bags and pointed.. She said I wasn't allowed one from the pharmacy - and she continued on, telling me that it was only because I could steal something, hiding it in the plastic bag.
I had a GIGANTIC purse they would've fit 10x more than the plastic bag. Also, worth mentioning that I paid with a $20 bill.. she checked it to make sure it was real... l was worried they this girl REALLY thought that I would hand her a counterfeit 20, as well as STEAL random items on my way to the door (via the plastic bag )
Anyway , the girl turned around and I reached over the counter and grabbed a bag from behind the counter...
The tech, holding a letter opener (knife), grabbed my wrist and snatched the bag right out of my hand.
From this moment I walked up with my groceries and got my prescriptions, the girl was firmly grasping a letter opener (knife) the ENTIRE time. At one point, she was even waving it around to make it apparent how angry she was and how aggressive she could get.
I reminded her that she was at work, at a pharmacy, and that she was very close to insulting me, by simply making judgments and assumptions.
I then called the pharmacy to talk to the manager (of the pharmacy). I have a feeling the staff knew exactly who I was, so they gave me to somebody who may not have even been a manager. I was advised to call back a different day, a day that the manager would be there..
To recap and summarize: the only reason I choose to go to this Walgreens is simply because it's open 24 hours and I occasionally only have time to run this errand later at night. Nonetheless, it always amazes me how rude they are to some customers. Very rude how they just assume everyone is stealing. read more
