Go Ahead. Try To Buy My Love

I needed to mail a present to a friend who just had a baby, but I didn't have a box. I went to Walgreens to buy one. The only size they had wasn't big enough. There's another Walgreens around the corner though, so I walked to that one to see what they had. Same size box. I asked the Walgreens employee if there were any other boxes Walgreens sold. He asked what I needed it for. He pointed to a plastic bin and asked how that size was. Pretty good. He then uttered the words everyone loves to hear.

Let me see if I have anything in the back for you.


He came out with a box that was perfect for my needs. A used box in good shape. It was fweeeeeeeeee!

CVS is my favorite drugstore chain. Better than Walgreens (which always strikes me as slightly dirty), better than Rite Aid, better than everything. They have carpeting. They have good stationery and school supplies. Good makeup and magazine selections.

Hey CVS? You're not here in San Francisco, and I'm forced to use Walgreens. They're gaining on you.

Free? Hot damn!

Personally, I think Walgreens is pretty good. Especially now that our closest drugstore is Rite Aid, which is so horrible I want to cry every time I set foot in there.

I much prefer Walgreens. Better selection, better prices, kinder employees, not so cavernous and impersonal.... And the carts are easier to push across the floor instead of on the carpeting. Not that I ever buy enough stuff to fill a cart, but it is handy for confining the three-year-old so he doesn't run all over the store annoying the other patrons.
