My thought exactly. They did it here and it should be their kiss of death by wokeness. And fkg Safeway pharmacy with their recording telling gullible seniors to hurry in and get their death shot!
When the tribunals start we should make sure all those who promoted and profited from the shots are fully Vaxxed Boosted, and not with the placebos some people got.
It will be interesting to see if their excuse hold water, and they actually close the stores in shitholes that are robbing them blind.
I wouldn't bet on it. I expect a lot of these stores will be serving areas where they have not had one problem.
While this move maybe economic in nature due to losses, I think it is also in response them seeing people taking control of their own health and rejecting big pharma's drugs.
I live in a pretty middle class area not much crime and yet a Walgreens cashier told me they are told to stand down and let anyone take anything they want. She said it happens all the time. Their corporate decision to just let it happen is why they are closing.
Walgreens may be getting ripped off, but they are more than making it up from their customers. Recent example that I experienced: 200 tablets of Iron 65mg, $28.78 at Walgreens (Even after a BOGO40% discount) vs. $4.88 at Walmart.Embrace WOKE, go broke!
Sadly in some neighborhoods they rely on stores like Walgreens because they have no grocery stores. So they buy small grocery items there and save their big grocery shopping for when they get a ride to a grocery store
I purchase an item at Walgreens, I always check the price on the label from the store, when I check out it was more. I call a foul, walk back tag a photo went to clerk, her response was oh, they forgot to remove the tag. BS
In fairness, a lot of Walgreens are in over saturated markets. I've seen areas where there are like 5 of them within a relatively small radius. But I can easily see the ones in certain areas getting robbed blind.
Pharmacists know much more about drugs and their interactions and you are supposed to be able to consult with them. However, the drug stores want to churn out a volume, and good luck getting 5 min of their time. They make 100K a year fresh out of school but they spend as much time in school as a Dr. A PHD level of hard classes. 65K-200K
Wow! I had a friend/neighbor who was stationed at Ft. Campbell , KY who was a Pharmaceutical Technician. She got her training through the military and when she left our state she was continuing her education to become a full Pharmacist. She used to look at any medications that was given to me or my children to see if the dosage was right and what the side effects would be. I'm sure she's retired now, but she was a good person.
If leftist run city looting is the main issue driving store closure, why would Florida be highest on the list of states with most closures. Does not make sense.
Walgreens still pushing clot shots in my town. Woke/ broke.

Aren't they advertising that you can get the flu & the covid injections in one easy, convenient shot?

When you have cause (such as theft and looting), you address the next bullet point at the same time.
What stores are turning a profit, that justifies their existence? Logistics, marketing, transportation and sales.
If you are tasked with cutting a Tiger's tail off, you do not do it an inch at a time.
They have cut way back on their pharmacy hours. I had to switch to walmart,and many people will do the same,they will be broke soon.

Its a clown world. Bizarre things are normal.

I haven't been to a Walgreens in 2 years, even though one is only 1 mile from my house. I won't go into CVS either.
Both can close for all I care. After the Covid "vax" scam, I don't support either of them.
Vax factory... complicit...shut em down
Good, and take your shitty vaxxines with you, Walgreens!
If they can hold on another six months, things will change.
Hopefully people get healthier and we don't need them....

True,it's very expensive to be poor.
Hopefully they have some dollers stores

Is Walgreens a nationwide chain? There are none in my area (PA), and the only ones I've ever seen were in kalifornia.
Ohio is lousy with them, along with CVS and the occasional Riteaid.
Walgreens is huge in NY they bought out rite-aids. I've seen walgreens in Florida and Georgia
I'm in PA and I see them, though not as much as CVS. They are nationwide as far as I know, never been in a state that didn't have one.

That is illegal in some states.

Close them all.
We don't have a looting problem at our Walgreens. We simply can't keep a Pharmacist.

Yeah, Corporate wants them to NOT do their actual Job, much more money to be made that way. Their pay is not the problem.
The Cartel will supply your meds now peeps...
You mean by Democrats right?
