Editorial Review for Walgreens – by Robyn Galbos
In Short
Founded in 1901 in Chicago by Charles R. Walgreen Sr., this neighborhood pharmacy has grown to be one of the nation's largest drugstore chains. Each store carries 25,000 different items--from cleaning products to electronics and greeting cards. Store features include a computerized system connecting pharmacies nationwide via satellite, grocery-store food aisles, one-hour photofinishing and an automated phone system for prescription refills and pre-arranged pickup times. Other services include in-store flu shots and childhood immunizations.

This review is actually not a rebuttal to the previous one -- the fact that they both pertain to the service at this Walgreen's is purely coincidental. That said, I searched out this location on the site because I had a great experience there recently. I was in Texas on vacation and needed to get a prescription filled; got to the pharmacy too late that Sunday evening, but members of the friendly staff gave me directions to another nearby location with a 24-hour pharmacy. I was impressed by how patient they were (not being from there, I needed some ultra-thorough directions). I found my way to the other location with no problem and deeply appreciated the help.
