Rude and obnoxious crew. I would rather pay twenty dollars more in a different store than be subjected to an open hostility from these ugly people.

I would kind of like to give Walgreens at least 4 stars. Pharmacists are generally very good at discussing the pros and cons of different medications since physicians aren't always spot on. Also, if you're on Medicare, the AARP Walgreens prescription option is generally less expensive than its main competitor, CVS. But that seems to be where that story ends. Using the interactive voice option to order is a nightmare if you make an error. And the main reason to go to Walgreens is to pick up scripts.
I don't want auto refills every 28 days since they're the monthly dosage is 30 days. Maybe I'm picky, but I like some orderly precision. I evolved this way because I was constantly running into the prescribing physician saying he called them in and Walgreens telling me the opposite. Part of the rub is the people taking the orders aren't always reliable because in a busy pharmacy location, Walgreens creates brain fatigue which is probably why their prices come in a bit lower. In other words, they're slave drivers like Walmarts.
All I ask for in an interactive voice system is simplicity and a little versatility. What I get is "do you want your prescriptions the following day, and if "no", "how about 1 hour." C'mon Walgreens, don't jam it up your employee's butts. I feel their pain. Cut them some slack like "a few hours" or "later that day." The system also doesn't recognize recently called in prescriptions, only the prescription number. Hence, you have to call them unless you're tracking things with a spreadsheet.

Lastly, enough of those child proof containers. I'm an adult and a cap is fine. And because I'm getting older, print a little larger and make life easier by not hiding how many pills are left in the prescription. Perhaps I'm getting older and crankier, but Walgreen makes my head hurt and I might have to order pain killers next.

It's unfortunate that I have to leave an extremely poor review of Walgreen's Store & Pharmacy #*******, located in Pennsauken NJ. There's no option for half a star which is unfortunate for me. My son and I have been unable to rely on receiving our medications without major delays and the pain suffering caused by their consistent unreliability. I've been refilling meds there for several years and the pharmacy has yet again failed me and my family. I was constantly made to believe that it was our Doctors who were dropping the ball with sending out our scripts. But no, it was this Pharmacy who was the culprit. My family and I have been sent away without our medication too many times to count at this point. We have gone several days without our medications, trusting that they were were honest professionals when they told us our Doctors never sent our scripts. Today I've lost complete trust and respect for this Pharmacy. This is the last time you will deny us of our rightful health. We are taking our business elsewhere. This a complete travesty and I'm informing the world on your lack of reliability with the health of it's consumers. Lastly, I attempted to utilize your Pick up at Store and you failed me there too. A few months ago I ordered supplements from this website, received that my order arrived and was ready for pick up, went to the store for a staff member to quickly and carelessly tell me that my order was returned after 24 hours. I drove all the way home to inquire with customer service as to why my items would shipped back so quickly. The manager called me back in less than 30 minutes asking me to come pick up my order. More unnecessary pain and suffering. I wasn't even feeling well that day. Unprofessional and unreliable. I will continue seek justice from this entity. Do not do any type business there for you will be greatly harmed and disappointed!

The missing package
August 16, 2022

I do not use the Walgreen.com often but I did order this month.
The package did not arrive as expected on 08/09/22 but Wlagreen and Fedex notified me that it was delivered at 11:25 a.m. to the residency in San Diego, CA. Not my residency: I did not recieve it...
But maybe someone receieved it at a different residency. What kind of delevery proof Wlagreen and Fedex are giving? They are not specifiing an address: just a residency in San Diego, CA
I guess i was supposed to go around all San Deigo and look for my package.
Called Wallgreen twice: first time I was told it is too early, look at your backyard,... Who delivers packages to the backyard?
Today, week later I called and was told that my accent is too heavy to understand me... Really? And the agent dropped the call.
I was lucky Linda picked up my call and gave me an outstanding service:
Two minutes and she understood me clearly and perfectly and right away send me a courtesy package with the missing items.
Five stars for Linda!
Zero starts for everyone else...
Tha tis why I am giving average of 2 stars.
