The first time I went, my corned beef was very fatty and salty. I asked for "easy on the mustard" and my sandwich was slathered in the stuff. They don't have regular soda, just Snapple and some specialty sodas. I wanted to sit at the only available regular-height table for the sake of my friend's small son, but it was filthy. This wasn't at lunch rush; it was 2 pm. Oh, and I disliked the cole slaw. So I decided to give them another try on a salami sandwich, which was better, but not stupendous enough to balance out the bad corned beef. Charred onion bagel; too much dijon mustard; pre-shredded lettuce out of a big bag like Subway; decent salami but not as tangy as I prefer. The highlight of the sandwich was when the guy asked me "hard or soft salami?" Not knowing the difference, I replied, "Which do you recommend?" to which he answered, "I like the hard salami," and of course I nearly lost it. Because deep down, I am still twelve years old.

We truly appreciate your partnership and your commitment to promoting community health and safety. We look forward to working together again in the future. Thank you again for your generosity and support. Warm regards, Tiffany Mitchell Prevention Specialist

I had a frustrating experience at this Walgreens pharmacy that felt more about rigid communication…read morethan patient care. On March 19, I attempted to pick up a medication I last filled on February 18--day 29, just one day early. The pharmacy manager, Candice, told me it could not be dispensed until March 20 "by law," including a statement that this was because February has 28 days. My understanding is that Illinois law does not require a strict 30-day wait for this type of medication, and that early fills by a day or two are common and typically handled at the pharmacist's discretion. In practice, even insurance plans often allow a small window before the full 30 days. I explained that I had accidentally left my medication in Ohio while visiting my father, who has been in the ICU. I also shared that missing even one dose can impact my mental health. I was told to go to the emergency room instead, which felt excessive and not like a reasonable first option. What stood out most was the tone. Candice's approach felt accusatory, and the overall interaction felt dismissive. No alternatives or solutions were offered. I want to be fair--other staff at this location have been friendly and tried to be helpful. That said, I hope this location can improve how situations like this are handled and communicated.

There's an armed guard inside, which honestly is insane. A gun? What're you gonna murder someone over some tide pods? One time I went in and there was this bigger dude standing looking right at the door, directly in front of it, in plainclothes, an unmarked white hoodie. As I entered I thought "is this guy a security guard or just weird, what is going on", and later I realized he had a gun in his waist. My dude is not actually watching the store, he's just eye-groping people as they enter, real big TSA agent who thinks he's a big man energy. Then if you want a deodorant you have to press a button and wait around for someone to let it out of its little jail. Dish soap in another little product prison, laundry detergent in another. And they don't even stock the decent brands of lots of stuff! You want the yellow Scott sponges for doing dishes? Sorry they've only got those crappy blue Total Home ones. They used to carry the normal sponges. Paper towels and toilet paper too, they only carry the Total Home garbage. Usually there are handbaskets you can use for shopping, but here at Aetna's penal colony for miscellany, these too are jailed, held behind the counter and dolled out to decent folk by the cashier. Everything about this place sucks. Don't go here. There's a Jewel with a pharmacy a block north, a Mariano's a few blocks east, and a Walgreens at Clark and Catalpa for everything else. Go to one of those and avoid this place, it's terrible.

I suppose younger people will not remember when it was standard practice for people to be treated with care and decency in their day-to-day human interactions.
