CVS believes smokers quit but it appears cig sales were up in convenience stores significantly.
In other fake news, seven states have declared bankruptcy because their cigarette tax revenue was crushed by the CVS store decisions.
As a result the number of homeless increased in the cities of those states.
Propaganda goes both ways!
.....and when Ford discontinued the Mercury line, people stopped driving.
I’d like to try what CVS is smoking, must be some really good s**t
Yes..CVS saved the world!!
“When we removed tobacco from our shelves, a significant number of our customers simply stopped buying and hopefully smoking cigarettes...”
What fools! Geez, when we quit selling drugs, people quit taking them. LOLOLOLOL!!
CVS is outrageously expense.
Example:
CVS house-brand antacid - 96 count - $4.99.
Kroger house-brand antacid - 96 count. $1.99.
oh bull crap.
Or go to Walgreens instead.
“...those who purchased cigarettes exclusively at CVS Pharmacy were 38% more likely to stop buying cigarettes,...”
This sounds very much like democrat voters. They are easily manipulated.
When CVS stopped selling cigarettes all its customers stopped buying cigarettes from them?
AMAZING !
Some one needs to sue CVS for selling antibiotics, heart medication, prophylactics of every kind, and antidepressants!
If they would just stop this nonsense a lot of people in the world would be a lot healthier and happier.
The tabacco section at the local drug store where I grew up was interesting. In addition to cigarettes, cigars, and pipe tabaccos and all their accessories, they carried all manners of chewing tabacco from the tame Skoal and RedMan tins and pouches to real twists of uncut plug cut and actual powdered snuff.
All that is gone nowadays.
