Walgreens is the most convenient to my home and they usually have what I need. I did however find out recently that my prescriptions would be lower at a different pharmacy.
I spent hours, but could not get a small order through their website. Like CVS, there are many repetitive sign in requests, and repetitive requests to pick a store location. At the very end I was asked to provide "contact information" as if that hadn't already been done. Their system said it did not sell toilet paper or paper towels, which of course it does. It's possible that small food items in the store, like small bags of chips, are not on the website. At the end of the process it just got stuck in a loop and would not move forward. The App wasn't better than the web version for me. It was possibly worse. I will say, Walgreens has some good employees and other virtues. This review is for the website.

I am not waiting on a refill. These are 3 new prescription. I'm quite sick. They were sent in at 8:30 am. At 11am they said another 45 minutes. At 2:15 they said another 1/2 hour, when I tried to explain that 1 persc I didn't need today the rude woman hung up on me!
They don't deserve 1 star. I get so aggravated using their pharmacy. Every month I have to tell them to use a coupon on file. Do not submit to insurance. Every month they submit to insurance. It's upsetting to every month have to deal with these stupids.
Pharmacy takes pride in hiring people that are the most dumb!
Tip for consumers:
Avoid Walgreens altogether. I will be pulling my prescriptions from there.
We're suppose to be able to use our otc card online they are refusing! This is HORRIBLE why what's the problem. Customer service saying they have not added it yet,but I can use it in the store I will not!
So I set up an online account with Walgreens, Name, address, valid debit card number, so I could get certain things delivered without having to drive into town. I'm semi-retired and on Medicare and I have the OTC Network card with a set amount on it every quarter. I heard Walgreens was the best place to use that card, hence the online account. I placed an order today for approximately $53, then entered the OTC Network account number and placed the order. My bank sent me a notice that a business I haven't done business with just extracted money from my personal bank account. I immediately called customer service to to cancel that order, now this all took place in a matter of 4-5 minutes, I was told it was already processed and there was nothing I could do except wait for it to be delivered. I will wait, then do a return. I'm just saying to all you retirees that if you have an OTC Network card, do not order online from Walgreens, go to their store if you like shopping there, I don't, never have, but a friend suggested I should. Some friend, huh? I wish I could give them less than 1 star.
Everytime, I go to Walgreens in WillsPoint, I have issues, maybe they're afraid to fill pain meds. Maybe they can't read, tell time., who knows. It's not Rocket Science, Bass Rutledge in Terrell, Tx. Pull up give them your birthdate, pay for your scripts.Your outta there in less than 3 minutes. You'd be doing yourself a favor, not dealing with employees who have a script in front of them telling how to do there job.
Tip for consumers:
Don't use the app. Walgreens is useless.

I didn't, takes them a week to fill anything.
I will never shop here again, and I'm moving my prescriptions. I have received 4 identical emails from Jill, from the 21st to the 1st. Jill is obviously a bot.
Customer service chat promised a refund within 3 business days….a week ago.
How did we get here? Walgreens changed my delivery order time, and split it into 3 orders. New time? When I was at work the next day. I reach out to chat to cancel. They tell me to call the store. The store claims to have cancelled. Next morning, I receive an email that 2 of the 3 parts that they split my order into have been delivered. One is nowhere to be found. The second is perishable. I use chat, and am told that they tried to refund it all, but the status is still pending for 2 of the 3 parts that they split it into. They have to open a case to refund the tip. It stays pending for a week. They tell me to return it in store. I go to the local store, and the girl with the 4 inch glitter nails and miles of attitude refuses the return, and tells me to take it back to the store that it came from. Which is nowhere near there, 4 cities away. I contact chat, who again says they can't refund because it's pending. In the meantime I get these emails from Jill the bot, "Sr specialist centralized services, with the same copy and paste. When it is finally not pending a day or two later, I contact them again. They said they can refund right? Nope. They said it needed "manager approval". I tell them I'm reporting it as fraud, and they promise a refund in 3 business days. Who refunded me after 5 business days? PayPal. Then they send me the same copy and paste from "Jill" that's they're working on it. Their chat workers will say "you're welcome" after you say "ok"
This is bottom barrel.
I have had rudeness and incompetence at the last two pharmacies, where the same girl insisted I had no prescriptions and she couldn't find my name- 4 different times, said that GoodRX didn't work with their pos (lie)and and the second lied to me about a price difference and overcharged me. Now this? I'm happy to change to CVS. Walgreens should be embarrassed by their employees.
Tip for consumers:
Please look at reviews before you go. Horrible service in store and online.

None. They were not delivered or perishable that was late
I've written to Walgreens "contact us ". I've spoken with my local Walgreens. I'm done. This is the last prescription I will get from Walgreens. They tell me that this is the smallest bottle they can fit this little bit of pills into. The SMALLEST. We all know, there are smaller bottles available. I've peeled the labels off & put the pills in much smaller bottles, but then I still have to dispose of this huge waste of hard plastic. No more. Be a better business to this planet!

Shopping at about half of the Walgreens, an employee runs for a side or rear door and creates a fast, automatic door slam noise. When it's supposed to be a gentle store that sells drugs to old people, I feel under pressure like a target and am worried about violence. The headquarters cannot afford security at the bad stores. I hope they close Walgreens and let CVS be the main drug store.

I remember going to their pharmacy and they had knowledge on the drugs I wanted to pick up. Also their staff were very friendly and didn't stop smiling at me till I left.
They are the most disgusting, hypocritical and dishonest company ever! Their $35 free shipping is a brazen and thorough lie. Once you reach $35, it always says the item exceeds the total free shipping limit and it will automatically add the same shipping cost, if not more. It doesn't matter how light or small the extra item is. And they often have false deals, like this olive oil in clearance for example, if you add some in your cart and try to check out, it will always prompt a message saying you can't buy them regardless of the quantity. There's one time I ordered some toilet paper from them and it advertised one equals 4 regular rolls. I only realized it's a total lie when the item arrived. It's only like 25% larger than any other roll I've seen in my life at best. Their agents were so shameless that they just denied the issue when confronted with solid evidence. In addition, their app discount coupon never worked when I try to check out, no matter how hard or how much time I try.
Tip for consumers:
Don't ever do business with them if possible!

I sent this message via email and received no response. Then I contacted customer service named Shawna, she did not help me in any way and after telling her this, she closed the session.
I just had back surgery and had a script at the pharmacy and the text said it was eligible for same day delivery with a fee. So I paid it. Received a text saying it would arrive by 7pm. I called the number provided and was told they have no control if they are picked up or not because they outsource the delivery. He told me sometimes they don't pick up for delivery for days. But you advertise same day? And charge for it. So, I have to suffer in pain because of Walgreens.
Walgreens policy of asking you to belt out your name and date of birth for anyone in the store, or parking lot if you're at the drive-up, is a very bad one. Worse, if you offer your government issue ID instead, they refuse!
I am very disappointed in the recent Christmas ads I am seeing. Foul language has become too accepted in our society. Shame on Walgreens for making it more acceptable.
Walgreens has been our go to pharmacy for over 20 years. Over the last 20 month prescriptions have become unavailable. When expecting to pick your prescription up they don't even notify you. You have to call them. We have had to move most of our perceptions to Safeway, which is not near as convenient.
Hello I bought two pairs of glasses initially only wanted to buy one about seven weeks ago iron Man Foster Grant glasses. For right around $26 and some change a pair. The arm on one of them broke so I thought it might have been my fault or someone else's you know. So I brought it back asked him there's any guarantee they said no so I bought another pair now here I am almost a month later second pair broke. Store doesn't seem to care if they sell a product they can't guarantee your replace they said call Foster Grant. I called them and they said the products we sell to you we don't guarantee so why would any store sell a product you can't guarantee. Plus I'm very disappointed I think I'm going to take everything out of the store I'm just customer service is no good anymore you're going to sell junk then become a dollar store thank you
Tip for consumers:
It would have been helpful to know that they that they're not worth the money you pay for and that they're shably built. And that they don't replace there should be some type of guarantee or warranty on something you spend $26 on thank you

For several years have used Walgreens for all my vaccinations and prescriptions, very accommodating. No more. They apparently have implemented a new business model based upon: "For every customer we lose, we'll get 5 new ones" Oh yeah? Color me gone. The "kiss my $#*!: attitudes of my local store don't work for me.
Tip for consumers:
Ads not valid.. as site is not updated on product availabilities.

We enjoy the convenience of their drive thru window and that we can set up a notification service where they will contact you by phone when your prescription is near it's renewal date.
One less thing to worry about.
Just about everything I have bought since 2013 has either not worked, or been crap. Rechargeable batteries-garbage, sink strainers, rusted after 2 weeks. Still using the ones from the dollar store. Perfume spray difficult. Vitamin C smelled like fish oil. And my latest pain, I am 67 and can't buy wine or beer without an Id.
In the next 2 months I will be switching my prescriptions to CVS where they deliver.
I'm not worried, I won't be missed.
Walgreens - Everywhere! Quality, convenience, very trustworthy - always.
They also do a great job of getting to know and acknowledge their customers.
Always clean stores, bright, cheerful, and easy-to-find the health goods you want as well as many household items!
I'm not sure if it's possible but I feel like their contacts might be fake. They are getting dry quicker than before only a few hours on. That's never happened before. I hope they don't make their own contacts and brand it as the big companies. Oh well.
Drugstore dot com had fair prices, but getting free shipping was a hassle. We were inundated by emails and the only option at the time was stop all emails. That resulted in us losing our points. Other drug store and online retailers just apply the discounts on the spot, or offer them at checkout. I gave them three stars in case they've improved things.
I am very disappointed. I have been buying from Drugstore.com/Beauty.com for some time.
Received a $10.00 off for Beauty.com today with my order. Attempted to use today, it was rejected.
Purchased the items from another site.
This was by far the best experience I've had ordering contacts. Great price, Easy to Use website, Super fast delivery (arrived within 4 days), and Great Product. Not sure why all the negative feedback this site has been receiving. I guess only the peeved people write reviews? I'll be ordering from them again. :)
