It takes a little less time if you go through the drive-thru, but still, the response times are abysmal. The problem is that this *PHARMACY* now prioritizes all the vaccine people, who take precedence over prescription pick-ups. Ridiculous. Don't go here. Get your prescriptions filled at Rite Aid if you want decent service.

There's always a wait line to check out at this store. Always. It's tedious and annoying. But…read moretoday, Saturday March 16 at approximately noon, something special happened: the wait line was greeted and acknowledged by a wonderful cashier. I've never seen that happen until now. She engaged with every customer with a smile and enthusiastic greeting. The gentleman before me was trying to apply points for his purchase...an annoying and tedious process...and I had a badly sprained wrist so I was slow and clumsy, but she was supportive and very helpful in moving things along. She apologized to the customers in line, greeting each with a warm smile. (She also gave me some kind advice about using horse linament for my badly sprained wrist, but I was too distracted by pain to pay attention.) She was altogether wonderful. Please give this kind-hearted, generous employee a raise! She exemplifies the best of customer service!!!! I am having a miserable weekend filled with pain and unable to use my right hand. I accepted that nothing good would happen this day. But boy, I was surprised by the kindness and consideration of this cashier for every customer waiting to check out. She has been the bright spot in my miserable day. Thank you for hiring her, and please, please give her a raise!!!

An added plus was that it is a fraction of the cost of what I used to pay. INCREDIBLY impressive work! Excellent communication from Ike and a wonderful experience all around. HIGHLY recommended.

The neighborhood mainstay has offered a number of services throughout the years, and they still go above and beyond for the community they serve. They continue to operate their soda fountain, offer compounding services, and home delivery to customers in Northeast Portland. Due to my health insurance plan I'm not able to get most of my prescriptions filled here, but I have stopped in from time to time to pick up various items that don't require a copay. The folks here are always friendly and helpful. I do wish the soda fountain were more of a priority, but I understand staffing concerns and the fact that it's probably mostly a novelty these days. But I really do love that it's still here, they still serve phosphate sodas, malts and all the other yummies you'd expect to find. Is this the last soda fountain in Portland? I'll need to do some research on that - and if it is - let's start a Fairley's Club where Yelp Elite reviewers meet up here regulary for a soda! Let's help keep neighborhood institutions like this alive and strong!

I grew up with Walgreens, in Kentucky, so when they started sprouting up here like bunnies, I was…read morehappy. They do run some pretty good sales on makeup and everyday items. The location in Sandy is pretty nice, maybe because it isn't that old and they have done the store with the Sandy Theme, which looks sort of like a mountain lodge wannabe. My sister was looking for Oregon t-shirts to take back home, but we couldn't find any that were not too expensive for what they were, or would be.. the shirt you end up wearing while you wait for the rest of your laundry. I suggested Walgreens, not remembering the prices, but score, they had an end-cap with plenty to choose from. I think she got 3 shirts for $12. So, it was a good day and we walked out with shirts, beer and snacks. Walgreens is so much more than a drug dispensary, if you know what you are looking for. It is kind of cool that each one seems to carry team logos for whatever high school they are close to. Another way to score an inexpensive shirt with your high school name on it, so you have something to wear while you do laundry.

However, coming from downtown, for some reason, I got off one stop early. All reason went out the window when I saw Ikea and the Cascades train stop. I got out there and ended up walking something like a half-mile to get to Target. With the help of a couple of extra OTC painkillers, I made it, and only had to sit down a couple of times. I appreciated that the parking lot had sidewalks and crosswalks. It's like so many other Target stores, although I have never seen a CVS inside a Target. (In Hawaii, CVS is still Longs Drugs and they are free-standing. I looked for a certain brand of travel-sized toothpaste; there wasn't any. The bin contained only regular-sized tubes. Many of the travel-size section bins were empty. I also wanted a certain brand of waterproof black mascara. It would be cheaper here than in Hawaii. (Strangely, mascara can't be shipped to Hawaii.) What I wanted was near the floor, making them tough to see and read, and none of the tags were right. I checked all the tubes, and none of them were what I was looking for. I'm now 0 for 2. Next I headed to the grocery section. The fresh food section, particularly the fresh meat section, seemed smaller than others I've seen. There wasn't much on sale, either. I didn't have a ton of stuff, but I was having trouble carrying it. I checked in two spots for a basket, and both were out. There were two human checkers on duty with a few people in line for both. The line for self-checkout was long. Staff responded and opened up two more lanes. The person helping me was pleasant and chatty. It was just a bummer they didn't have two things I was specifically looking for. It was still an okay experience, and I got some unintended exercise. We'll see how much my arthritic joints ache tomorrow.
