Our local CVS is a train wreck.(It’s not on the “Closed” list.) The lines to pick up prescriptions are RIDICULOUS. Wait times can be half an hour. They’re too busy selling Hershey bars, Pepsi, and hair coloring to be bothered with medicine.

I fired CVS and went to our local “Mom & Pop” drugstore. Prices are slightly higher, but my blood pressure is much lower.

A healthy trade-off.

Most retail pharmacy departments lose money. They're a loss-leader to get people into the store to buy other things. I'd surrender my license before I would ever work in one of those dumps.
