I miss seeing Jennine in the real world. Sure, she’s but a click or call (with Skype) away, but still… Without Jennine, my trips to Walgreens just aren’t the same. Our love of Walgreens was so intense that sometimes we’d net 15+ visits a week between us. As Jennine says, fondling beauty products alone just isn’t as fun!
Speaking of drugstore chains, I was exicted to see a brand new Longs right by my work shuttle stop. Until, that is, I noticed the sign-wielding picketers. My late step-father was a proud Union electrician and say what you will about unions, I’ll never cross a picket line. It’s Walgreens forever for me.

I love Walgreens, have for MANY years. Go there several times a week and never leave empty-handed. I especially love when I get a receipt with the chance to win $3,000.00. I especially especially love that I can get my kitties’ chemo meds there for less than 1/2 of what the vet place charges. p.s. where is the Walgreens in the picture located?
I love it too! I’m moving to the States in a month and I have decided that on my first day there I’ll go to a diner and get a shortstack with strawberries, butter AND whipped cream and then I’m going to Wallgreens. Oh yeah.
You have a surprisingly very nice Walgreen’s. What architecture.
I wish that the Walgreens pictured in my post was in my hood. It’s in New Orleans. Isn’t it fabulous?
Gail– sorry about your kitty. Hope she/he is doing ok with the chemo.
Korka– oooh pancakes and walgreens…quintessential american culture! where are you moving?
Thank you Kezia. Both guys are on the chemo and doing very well!
O! How I <3 Walgreens!! We don’t have them in London and it kills me. We have Boots, but it’s not the same.
oh wow… i miss walgreens too! AND boots… (and i miss kezia)
