      I’m morbidly curious how they’ll manage it. It’ll be like a slow moving car wreck you can’t take your eyes off of.

        I wonder what they’ll do with the horrific video screen refrigerator doors.

      Went to Walgreens for toothpaste and Tylenol. Somehow left with like a 40$ receipt. Never again, thanks. I’d rather use Amazon

        They tend to have convenience store prices. The liquor is cheap I guess…

    The pharmacy will now be open one hour a day at random times based on the retrograde status of Mercury, except when it’s greater than 30% humidity, over 10% overcast, or the forecast calls for precipitation within the next 63.6 hours.

    Every time I go into my local Walgreens one poor bastard is stocking the shelves, handling photo, and manning the register by themselves.

    Can’t wait to see how they strip this bad boy

    There goes the last 24 hour pharmacy in my city. The hospital doesn’t even have a 24 hour pharmacy. What’s the point of having 24 hour urgent care if I can’t get a script filled.

      Do what the rest of Hollywood does and use ChatGPT to fill your scripts.

    Just that bust out scene from Goodfellas over and over again until everything collapses.

    I’m curious how much of this business is funded by social security checks.
