Walgreen's Deals 9/26-10/2/10- Yes I will shop there, just not in the pahrmacy

Walgreen's is still a wonderful place to shop.  Employees like Tracey and Shallen make coupon shopping fun.  They always go above and beyond to take care of customer questions or issues.  They are happy to accept my coupons.  I always leave with a smile on my face after checking out with one of them.  I have had excellent customer service from Rob (mgr.) on many occasions in the store.  If you have attended a recent coupon clipping lecture or event you will recall all of the wonderful things I say about Walgreen's.  Those things are still true.  Today Rob listened to my complaints after the great pharmacy debacle.  He was very receptive listening to my complaints about his pharmacy.  He is great and in general he runs a wonderful store that adds to our community in a wonderful way.  I am sure he will do what he can to try to build a good pharmacy team, but I'll leave that to other people to find out.  My husband has been threatened with starvation (I may have to lock up all 12 boxes of Cookie Crisp.  Hide all 18 cans of FREE Campbell's soup.  Booby trap the storage closets and the pantry.  Life will not be good for him if he ever ventures to Walgreen's pharmacy again.  NO POSSIBLE GOOD COULD EVER COME OF IT.  I am vocal and like to talk, so I am the squeaky wheel, but what about the folks that are scared? What happens the next time a little 85 year old lady, from Lyon Mountain, ventures into Plattsburgh via the cart bus and meets the scrooge when trying to fill her medication on day 29 of the cycle? The day before a blizzard? She may accept the fact that "it can't be done".  She will climb back onto the Cart Bus and accept that she must wait out the blizzard.  Hopefully she tells the Cart bus driver and he takes her over to Target.  The land of excellent customer service, critical thinking, and problem solving.  She will get her meds, return home to bake molasses cookies while the snow piles high and Visions of Target will dance in her head.  And with her medications no one will find her dead in her bed.  When her friend suggests that she go to Walgreen's the following month she will stick her fingers in her ears and sing "LALALALA I Cant hear you."  OK- Enough said about how much I HATE Walgreen's Pharmacy.  I look forward to a wonderful bargain hunting trip in a few weeks.  I am hoping the shopping endorphins that only come from scoring a cart full of FREE and Cheap treasures will make me think warm fuzzy thoughts about Walgreen's Again!

A Word On Flu Shots
All of the pharmacies are doing in house Flu Shots.  Walgreen's is offering them, but not with Perks.  Rite Aid is giving out a massive book of coupons (that you can just ask for without getting the shot).  Target is also offering the shots there.  If you have to get a shot you might as well get one that comes with a prize or from someone that smiles and is able to carry on a conversation.

OK back to Walgreen's
