There was an accidental spill on the floor. I was walking rather swift from the freezers to the line tonight which was rather long tonight on 2022 Christmas Night. As I was walking a gentleman lifted his hand to grab and immediately stop me. I automatically begin to look down as he simultaneously started talking, alerting me saying, that I didn't want you to slip and fall in this. I looked up and said thank you. I was grateful. I believe this man was a manager or supervisor. Really I'm unsure. But I can tell you he must have caught me in a nick of time because I totally felt his grip and he was sure to save me. I'm most appreciative for the angel that was in Walgreens tonight. Whoever you are kind gentleman sir my husband and I both really thank you for extending your hand out to protect me from dangerous injury. I Now pray God's supernatural favor and blessings upon you and your family. May you too be protected everywhere you go sir and your angels always with you. -Kimm read more

They had everything I needed. I ended up having to pop in here 3 or 4 times while in the area for work and they had a good vitamin section and all the snack supplies. I wish staff had been wearing their masks properly (I saw lots of noses). read more

5 Zyrtec is $7.99 (14 for $15.99). I couldn't decide which allergy medication to buy and there are only a few employees. 20 water-block band-aids for fingers or knuckles are $4.99. In front is an I-trolley stop. There is usually a taxi waiting at the curb too. This store is open for 24 hours. I bought a couple of travel-sized bottles of mouthwash and Caladryl. 24 reditabs of Claritin is $12.99. 15 tablets is $11.99. 60 Alavert is $27.99. There are Walgreens on both ends of International Drive but this is north of the convention center. read more

Says they're open 24 hours, there was two employees working that I could see with about three people at the checkout but they had the doors locked. When they let the people out she told us we were not allowed to come in, "their short staffed", but by the time we got done standing there all customers had left and both employees were sitting there doing nothing. They were choosing who to let in after that and would not "pick" us (me and my wife). I've never felt so discriminated against in my whole life. For a Walgreens on one of the busiest streets in Orlando that's ridiculous. I'd give it 0 stars if I could, specifically the woman working on 8/28/22 @ midnight. read more

I am surprised they don't know me here. This is the Walgreens of choice when I have one. A choice I mean. Its large, has a good sized parking lot, is clean, well stocked, need I say more? Of course I needed something this weekend, I never actually make it to Orlando without forgetting something, so we ended up making the Walgreens run - got what we needed, no crowd in this store on the busiest weekend in Orlando ever. I was happy. My achy hip needed some anti inflammatory goodness. At the cashier, she was a young girl in training who did an excellent job. Kudos! read more

I came here for the take care clinic. I made an appointment online and signed in using the touch screen. I was seen by a nurse practitioner that was personable and took her time. The office is very compact and offers several services. I got the flu shot, simply because I got that nasty summer flu that was horrendous. Don't' get sick people--just don't do it. I was given educational information to take with me after the visit. I used my insurance to cover the costs, and apparently they accept a lot of different types. read more

Bad Walgreens. The Walgreens & CVS stores where I live have travel sized sunscreens for two bucks. I buy loads if them. We were going to Universal today and my husband went it to get a travel sized one. Being a typical husband, he returns with a 16 oz. bottle. After announcing I wasn't carrying that thing around, I went in side to exchange. I looked everywhere - travel sized section, sunscreen section, promotional area, registers - nada. Wtf Walgreens? I bought the smallest one I could find. The employee at the register was super rude. I gave him the receipt, and explained I needed to exchange; we just purchased a few minutes ago. He looked at me and said, "what?" Again, let's explain again. He just stared at me for a second then began expecting the bottle I brought back. I repeated that we bought it a couple of minutes ago. Then he took his sweet time doing the return. Literally, he only said one word to me the whole time: "what?" Boo. I wish I could have seen his name on his tag but it was turned around. But - Dear Walgreens, tell your 50 something cashier with a beard that worked on May 25 at 8:00 a.m. that he needs some damn customer service training. read more

This Walgreens is almost identical to every other Walgreens you have ever visited. The staff was fine, although there is no urgency that I am aware of in any Walgreens to provide much customer service. We did not use the pharmacy, and the clerk at the front was effectively able to check us out along with the other customers in a reasonable. Amount of time. When you need supplies in your hotel this Walgreens is a great place to get them. read more

Vegan cheese, the meatless deli slices, etc. and it came out fantastic. We also arrived near closing and they gave us excellent service. My family ordered their own sandwiches and enjoyed them, but I usually expect difficulty when it comes to placing my vegan sandwich order.
