I always have a choice when shopping for certain personal care products. and usually it's either…read moreCVS or Walgreens. It's been my experience that, most often, Walgreens is a bit less expensive for the items I want, and they usually have them in stock. Such was the case at the Date Palm Drive location. The staff was courteous and helpful when I could not locate my items. The cost was 25% less than CVS had them listed for on their website. Here's a toast to wise shopping.

When you're sick and need your prescriptions, the last thing you want is to walk to the back of the store and infect the whole store. Their app is never updated with the current status of your prescription. the pharmacist is always 'reviewing your order' and then you call to find out it's been sitting there waiting for pickup.

I've been using Walgreens as my primary, really the only pharmacy I use . Seriously thinking of…read morefinding another pharmacy. For years I used the small Walgreens at the Davies medical center. I got excellent service there. . The pharmacy became exclusively for prescriptions filled for in house patients or something like that. So I switched to the 18th street pharmacy at Castro Street. It's been one issue after another . Never the same employees so I have no allies in the sense that someone is looking out for me. Never mind all the company policies that continue to add to the difficulty of getting my meds filled much less the untimely manner as well. I'm frustrated. I hate to give any more business to Amazon. So I need to find a better alternative. Any and all suggestions are appreciated!

I transferred all my prescriptions to walgreens which is now 20 mins away but feel the drive is worth it for the better service. My spouse stayed at this cvs due to the convenience but after today's rude and demeaning conversation we both realized it's time for both of us to take our hard earned money and business elsewhere and don't even want to shop at ANY CVS because of it. Too many options out there

During the transaction a young black guy was shopping near us and she kept looking at him a lot I assume she thought he was trying to check out so I told her she can help him first. She said no I'm trying to make sure he's not stealing anything. Honestly made me and my little brother uncomfortable. He came to the line after, and she told him in a rude tone to go to self checkout, which she told us wasn't working and he said that he was purchasing alcohol so he couldn't go to self checkout. She was rude and dismissive to him, but she was very nice to me, very weird. he wasn't being suspicious at all. He was just trying to shop like normal.

I don't know how they pick and choose location to add one compared to the normal. I've only been to the one in Orlando and now this location in the desert. Of course you have to have a massive parking lot to accommodate the loads of shoppers and wanderer's. Three entrances on either end of the store and garden center. There's a fast food place inside, you have the deli section and bakery. Of course the frozen section with quite some nice decent items. It's basically a grocery store on one side of the place. Even a decent isle for the international goods. There's a fairly decent section/department where the alcohol is located. So you have one side that's groceries and the other is basically everything else. Home goods, technology, clothing and so on. There's even a pretty decent size garden center that is pretty massive but it was a little sparse with what they offered. Some patio furniture, mainly soil and the usual pots and some plants. They also have a department for delivery and pickup. It's quite interesting for me...lol... Of course you have the option of self checkout or with someone. Bags are additional fee as we all know. What I didn't understand is, some of the items you would need to pay before hand if you want them. There's the beauty department where you have to leave your basket outside and pay for what you need before returning to it. And some other items in the store where you have to do the same or they can leave it at the customer service counter until you're finished. I had to do that with a measuring tape. We were still shopping and asked if it was ok. The staff seemed a bit annoyed with the request but took it to customer service anyways. Besides that concept, it a pretty good place for your one stop shop.

I don't know about YOU…read more.. But for ME.... Twenty Twenty-Five was the Year of Target! I kid you not, I visited my local Target store more times in 2025 than I ever had before.... And I LIKED it!! I know, I know, you ladies reading this RIGHT NOW are nodding your heads with absolute approval thinking to yourselves, "Yes Lance, go on, speak Target to me!" Sorry fellas, but I've gotta side with the girls on this one... But Target has just got it going on. Hey, I get it. It's clean, it's organized, & they've got most of your household basics. So I know what you're thinking... What made me so Target Happy in 2025?? Well my new obsession Vinyl Records, of course!! Yes, earlier last year, I surprised my wife and purchased her 2 Vinyl Records from her favorite band. Later that night, we went out and purchased a Record Player so we could play her new records. Once we got home that evening, within seconds of first hearing the sound, the quality, and the difference of listening to music play on a Vinyl versus digitally and.... I. Was. Hooked. From there, I discovered that Target stores have a small, but decent record selection; mainly new age stuff, but some re-recorded classics that everyone should have in their collection. And so my Target Ventures began. Yeah, I would find myself popping into my local Target and Bee-Lining it straight towards their records just see what they had. It came to the point where sometimes I would go daily, just to see if any new records had arrived. It became more of a hunt, that actual shopping, and I was always so happy when I saw a record that I wanted to add to my growing collection. And trust, when I saw an album that I wanted... I bought it! So why Target?? For one, they have a lot of the new-age records for current artists for that I'm currently into. Plus, there are a lot of Target Edition Vinyls that are made specifically for Target (limited edition colored vinyls, etc.) Heck, even when we are out of town... you know Target will on our to-do list. Well in October 2025, we were in Palm Springs to celebrate my birthday and we were on a mission to go straight to the local Target on October 3rd to grab a copy of Taylor Swifts newest album, The Life of a Showgirl. Hey, I'm a Girl Dad of 3 girls... plus a wife... I'm not embarrassed to say it, but I'm in a household full of Swifties, me included ;) Thankfully, that day, the release day... I didn't have to fight any teenage girls off to get my hands on Taylor's newest album because Target Palm Springs was prepared and had a huge display of albums, c.d's to choose from. Of course, like any Target run that anyone does... Once we grabbed the 1 item that we actually came in for, we headed straight to the check out line (Ha! This NEVER happens)... Yeah, we grabbed a cart, and we went shopping! My wife found some all white cowgirl boots, picked up a few fantasy books to read, and of course some things for the kids... Hey, this is how you Target! So... now you know how I spent the latter half of my 2025 and I have the record selection to prove it. We are now up to about 40 or so vinyls with over half of them thanks to my spontaneous Target drop in's. So.... Who is brave enough to share what brings you to Target so much. If you feel like sharing, you know what section to find me in ;)

Is it possible to receive pick up charmin without the roll opening completely squashed. ?

Today I came in and spent too much time going through my phone and loading and uploading and moving pictures. And in the time I was here, several of the photo employees greeted me and made sure I had everything I needed. They were so friendly, and I felt super relaxed to take my time. I watched one employee talk with a customer in such a gentle way as he was helping her understand what it meant to have a family member upload a picture rather than taking a picture of a picture. It was so kind, and it's just those little acts of kindness that the world needs right now. I could tell the couple really appreciated him. Upon picking up my pictures, unprompted the employee scanned a code that gave me half off. I really appreciated that today. Thankful for this place.

The drive thru window was damaged months ago from a shooting that occurred. I am stunned that Walgreens has not fixed this yet!

The women who work at this CVS are the nastiest people, no wonder the store was s always empty. I had pictures printed printed there and asked the guy who worked there for some extra envelopes, btw he was nice. The fat ass women that was back there she must be a manager, can running up and snatched them out of my hand and said only 1 envelope per customer, How pathetic., over a envelope, is she getting a commission for saving CVS envelopes. I called the corporate office & complained how she treated me as a customer. Everytime I ever go in this particular location I leave aggravated. Like I said those women who work there should be fired, everyone of them are nasty all the time. read more
