Title: Had any Walgreen’s closings near you?

If so, how are you feeling about it? Let’s talk this through.

I'm honestly not sure.  I go to CVS for all of my drugstore/prescription needs.

Are they meeting your emotional needs as well? Are they pervasive enough for you?

Well, I do have my prescriptions set for auto refill.  So, when I'm starting to run low, bam! I get a text saying my refill is ready.  Times out pretty good.

Other than that, not much interaction really.  No significant emotional stuff.

Walgreens lost the " 's " didn't it? Probably due to expanding into Quebec? Tim Hortons had to lose the " 's " because the Frenchies don't use the " 's " and it being Canada with its language laws and all.

I have PTSD from that shit.  Before my job got its head out of its ass and went with CVS, we had some mail order prescription company that we had to use.  It was a fucking nightmare. 

I'll just go pick them up.  It's only 5 minutes from my house.

I'm sure it works great.  I just had a rough experience with it, so I don't do it.

This. I switched to CVS about a year ago and they blow away Walgreens in every single category. I will never go back to Walgreens. My only regret is I should’ve made the switch sooner. Walgreens is fucking horrible in everything pharmacy related.

It’s almost unbelievable how bad Walgreens is. Almost criminal. They are definitely my personal Top-5 shittiest companies list.

Damnit… I knew somebody would ask. I don’t know, I just threw it out but tell Tempo to start a thread of Top-5 shittiest companies and I might come up with four more.
