The one down the street from them is better anyways. Then again, so is CVS and Rite Aid.

Jimbothan! I thought we agreed to use existing threads for 'one-off' matters like this, or corrupt taxi drivers, and so forth...

I love you, Jimbo, but you need to lay off the (admittedly) funny references and make CIH a D-FREE ZONE. |

No, we didn't. Don't know where you got that idea, PaW. I think the issue was Donna starting silly, irrelevant, self serving threads designed to draw attention to himself. This is a subject of general interest & it's not about me. So... apples & oranges. |

I guess they got a little too greedy to sustain the low cost of Evian.
There was one built near us not too long ago, say... 5 or 6 years ago, that just closed last year. MrsD and I questioned why they would build a big new shiny one 2 miles away from us, when 2-1/2 miles from us (and 1-1/2 away from the new one) was another one. Say, am I unignoring vicariously by posting in this thread?

I'm not out to get rid of Donathan. I just encouraged him to stop creating new threads about the boring, mundane minutiae of his daily life when could just post about it in an existing thread. This is a broader, more encompassing subject related to something we've all been talking about anyway, so I don't see where it falls under the heading of taboo subject matter. |

There are 3 within maybe 3 miles of me. San Francisco has about 70 of them. They could lose a few. |

In Grand Island, Nebraska, there are two within two miles of each other. Both have competing pharmacies close by. One has a CVS near it and the grocery store across the street is getting a pharmacy. The other one is across the street from the pharmacy I frequent. Walgreens prescriptions are too damn high, so I go to that pharmacy across the street.

I am worried about Walgreens closing 200 stores.... I never thought Walgreens would be one of the companies shutting down stores *please don't be my Walgreens on the list, please don'tbe my Walgreens on the list....*

My name is Donathan, pronounced the same way you pronounce Jonathan, except with a D.😀 Hitting on a Lesbian who speaks to you and about you like trash means you're REALLY desperate! 😀

I'm sure you'll get a big severance package. Possibly dozens and dozens of dollars. |

Thor, to quote a scam artist character on a TV show who was told his business went bust when his gullible followers found out about his scam and left his business, "I have no other skills!"

Well, only four of them had jobs, and Ken and Sandra were Walgreens Cashiers themselves..... Alex was a movie theater usher, and Stim was a waiter....

There are plenty of hotels down there in South Florida, Donnie.
Gotta be a job in one of them for you. Front desk clerk. Bellman. Valet. Or room service waiter. Those guys make pretty good money, too. |

No, he'll buy a crappy white van with his severance pay (thereby solving his transportation woes and giving him an affordable place to live), then drive by schools and daycare centers to sell kids his own special brand of Blowme Pops candy. And he's quite sure that absolutely nothing can go wrong with his plan...

I can see the future:
And one last one. The van's a little too nice though. There you go. Some quick ideas for your van purchase.
