I went for my antibiotic and left wanting an anti-depressant. Mom & Pop are deserting me again. As the pharmacy manager handed me my prescription, he told me the store was closing in a couple of days, as part of a multiple store sale to . . . you guessed it, CVS. Prescriptions were being transferred to the big chain's local branch furthest from my home.
My heart sank. I didn't know what to say except that I am sorry. I will miss you. I valued going to a small local pharmacy, even though the behemoth has two more-convenient locations. I chose a store, even though it closed in the evenings and on Sundays, because the staff cared, knew my face if not my name and delivered.
Now, I have no choice. This is the second Mom&Pop to leave. None are left around here. I feel like an orphan.
Ditto. They were like that show Cheers where "they always knew your name". Myself, I might go Trotta's because they do have the delivery service and they are family owned. I think you can xfer 1 precription over, but the rest must stay with CVS until either the prescription runs out or you get a new one.
