Walgreens

My wife and I have done business with Walgreen for a long time and we always go back for our prescription and non prescription needs
The Walgreen employees always treat the customer with the respect we should be getting from a retail store.
In the age of the big box stores~Walgreen seem to remember to treat the customer right
This endorsement comes free from my wife and I as we are not getting$$$ for endorsing Walgreen Drug Stores

Walgreens price to fill my prescription for a generic drug was nearly $1000 when other pharmacies could fill the prescription for $17. I attempted to transfer the prescription to another pharmacy. Walgreens refused to transfer the prescription. The only reason given was that it was company policy. I had to go back to my doctor, have the prescription at Walgreens cancelled, and have a new prescription sent to the more reasonable pharmacy. All of this was very inconvenient for me and for the doctor and took a long time to complete. Thank goodness the prescription was not something I needed right away.

This incident gives the strong impression that Walgreen is holding hostage medication people need for their health. That seems shameful to me.

To make matters worse, when I was ordering the medication, I first attempted to order it online. The Walgreens web site wanted me to provide my credit card to be charged without telling me how much the prescription would cost! We don't have insurance for this. Had I been foolish enough to click submit we'd be out nearly $1000. What kind of a company won't tell you how much something will cost before you buy? I feel like I'm dealing with some sort of criminal organization.

Stay far away from Walgreens, for your health.

Bought an eye patch and cotton balls, all store prices are ~20% extra than online prices, and they will not price match. Horrible. They should close their stores and stay online only.

Walgreens at"542 River Hwy, Mooresville, NC *******" ……. By far the WORST customer service at any Walgreens I have ever been to. This is my third time calling corporate with my concerns about this store. I am sick and tired of being racially profiled. And I am hoping corporate takes action because the store MANAGER HAS/WILL NOT. There should be a sign on the door that says "SERVING WHITE PEOPLE ONLY". I WILL NOT COME BACK TO THIS WALGREENS. I've spent so much money with Walgreens I'm a loyal customer and the way I have been treated over and over at this Walgreens is in acceptable

Walgreens is definitely the only place I will get my prescribed medicines!
I have shopped at several Pharmacies in the past 45 years. One Pharmacy neglected to pay attention to the Contraindication Alerts, gave me two medications that are NEVER allowed to be prescribed together, and I nearly died. Other Pharmacies have not made that drastic an error, but I have found that many Pharmacies will charge more than they should. This has digruntled me, and made me feel that Pharmacists just cannot be trusted.
Then, I began to get my prescription drugs from Walgreens. I have been with them many years, and not once have they made a mistake. Correction: they made a mistake one time, but not a serious one. They have correctly filled several hundred prescriptions for me. I had been very ill, and now, though I am still disabled, I am much healthier.
The staff at Walgreens' stores are unfailingly polite, helpful, considerate, and truly give the best service.
The Pharmacists will ALWAYS answer any questions I have about medications. Sometimes, they even offer information before I can ask for the Pharmacists.
I am not thrilled with the prices on the vitamins, supplements, or ace wraps. They also do not carry all of the products I usually buy.
However, for a Drugstore, Walgreens hands-down scores the highest ratings from me EVERY TIME!

Dont use Walgreens for Covid or any other vaccines!

Their website makes you think that they have appointments available BUT THEY DONT! The website makes you enter all your personal information only to tell you in the end that there aren't any available.

Now they have my personal information and they are spamming me with ads!

I have used Acuvue Oasis for over 15 years with a local optometrist. However, I tried Vision Direct on 2 separate occasions and both times my contacts dryed out quickly and felt like they were falling out of my eyes. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS WITH ANY OF MY CONTACTS ONLY FROM VISION DIRECT. They somehow manage to package the contacts the exact same way but they are generic. I am upset because I paid more for these contacts! DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY, IT IS NOT WORTH IT!

Run from Vision Direct (VD) as fast as you can! My experience: 5/15 ordered with scanned prescription. 5/23 received no word from VD, I call them and discover that prescription was verified on 5/20 and it will take another 4-7 days to get lenses out to me. 6/2 advised VD that prescription is wrong, VD stated they told me their was a problem but DR said it was ok. Untrue - they never contacted me about prscription differences. Must send me refund because they "can't" apply the dollars to a correct order per the prescription they already have. Sent me return label. Mailed 6/5 rec'd by VD on 6/12 "In Processing". 6/17 I write: where's my refund. They state can take 30 days to process. I say process unopened, returned lenses ASAP. 6/18 I write, where's my refund and I will file PayPal complaint if they do not refund ASAP. They tell me that "If you file a PayPal complaint it will delay processing my next order". I say process ASAP. 6/23 I write "Refund my money now or I am filing complaint and your threats mean nothing to me. 6/23 within 3 hours I have my refund less their $1.99 process fee. I hope they enjoy their $1.99 because that's all they will ever get from me.
During all this I ordered from BestPriceContacts.com on 6/4 with same scanned prescription. My order was $20 less than VD (even with their 20% discount) and I received my (correct) order within 4 days.

I placed an order y'all are out of product, so why do I have to wait 5 to 7 business days because I canceled my order that doesn't make sense at all.

On April 15,2021 I went to Walgreens for my Vax and I was told to make an appointment to get Vax. The Walgreens is located at 925 Soundview Ave, Bronx, New York City *******. I have to make an appointment at Rite Aid to get my Vax. On April 18,2021 The Mayor and the Government sayed, Anyone is over 50 year old. Do not have to make any appointments for get the Vax.
