CVS = Carrot-Vegetable Shop
I have no problem with this action by CVS. It is their business and they get to run their stores as the wish.
There’s a good selection of sweets in those type of stores. Can they forego the profits form that too? (Type II diabetes)
They banned Tabasco?
I prefer Cholula anyway.
CVS can sell or not sell anything they want. It is their business.
This action opened the door for the Marxists to start thinking that maybe they can now dictate what a pharmacy or any other store can or cannot sell.
I see years of wrangling and targeting those businesses that don’t tow the Marxist line.
Yes, CVS, get rid of ALL those impulse candies, energy drinks, beef jerky, etc. at the checkouts. Be true to your ideals.
Followed by energy drinks and candy which will finally upset the libnerd progressives so much they finally understand to what degree of a traitor 0 is especially when they discover Moochelle has a whole stash of both at the WH and doesn’t follow her own advice. Libnerds can’t make it without their Monster energy drinks.
Just making shelf space for the “medical” pot ;-)
Well - i have an idea for a new store... and i’m not telling yet. ;-)
CVS is still selling morning after pills, I’d assume.
These are going to be mini Medicare and Medicaid "Get your meds here" centers.
The drug business is just so huge.
Remember, they were originally called Drug Stores". In the 50's, the corner drug store sold bathroom products, female products and drugs....not much else.
They will mail your drugs, hand deliver them, feed them to you....anything to grab a few more mil from the drug industry.
And pretty soon, here in NYS....looks like Marijuana will soon be coming to Town.
Since the newest study on sugar came out last week, citing sugar as a killer for your heart, CVS should take out all candy and soft drinks. And because thousands die of prescription drug over-doses, they should ban those, too.
In fact, CVS should only be selling toilet paper and printer cartridges.
Will they sell medical marijuana?
(I’m not against it. Just asking.)
Haven’t seen a link to DZJ for years, literally.
But you can’t keep an insane lefty down forever, I suppose.
“I say this because I take CVS’s new public health pronouncements seriously.”
Well, then, Derrick, you are a fool. Because CVS is cynically using a shift in inventory to market something new behind the counter. Not everyone sees every product in the store but they all stop at the cash register, which means they see products behind the counter.
There aren’t many people buying Bugler tobacco these days so why not use the space for more impulse buys and high-margin rubbish?
CVS was looking for free publicity and in the case of hopeless statist DZJ they’ve got a very large sucker.
CVS Will probable have to raise the price of its drugs, because high proft, low cost items like pop help offset the cost of drugs.
I’ve already decided to take my business elsewhere.
Mark my words: “CVS is getting some sort of back door deal to end sales of tuhbacky”.
It’ll come out...
CVS is just getting ahead of the curve... The Canadian government mandated that drugstores not be allowed to sell cancer sticks to their customers years ago. So it’s just a matter of time before your now socialist government does the same.
Oddly enough, the last ‘Marlboro’ man to bite the biscuit was the ripe old age of 72 when he died from lung cancer. I know plenty of people who are not with us and would have loved to have lived until the age of 72. My sister was recently operated on for lung cancer and it was thankfully successful. She’s 66 and quit smoking a couple of years ago. Oddly enough the form of lung cancer she was afflicted with had absolutely nothing to do with smoking and apparently one out of every four people who are diagnosed with lung cancer never smoked in their lives. Poor buggers! At least the ‘Marlboro’ man had a reason for having lung cancer, as will I because I’m a diehard not even thinking of quitting smoker.
My final thought is this... Nobody gets off this rock alive so it may be cancer, it may be heart disease, or maybe you’ll just die in your sleep. But the inevitable is the inevitable and all the cigarette bans, sugar bans, fat bans, etc. will not change that fact. Enjoy your life and health while you have it and hopefully our maker will forgive us our faults and understand our sins.
Maybe they’ll stop selling Prozac and Zoloff, drugs known to cause suicide symptoms. And maybe they’ll stop selling over the counter drugs people use to make METH.
