Another Closure?

WILMINGTON – Walgreens’ slogan is “At the Corner of Happy and Healthy” but some customers may find themselves at the corner of angry and inconvenienced instead.

A source who works at another Walgreens location informed the Crier that the Wilmington Walgreens may be closing, fueling concerns that that the 227 Main Street location could see the same fate as the Reading store.

Last June Walgreens shuttered its 5 Harnden St. business, reportedly with little notice. Store employees were told not to share news of the closing with customers. Those using the Walgreens pharmacy had to travel to Rite Aid where their prescriptions were transferred.

The move was part of an effort to close unprofitable stores. A 2014 retail industry report showed 76 Walgreens locations would cease operation. The Northeast lost 20 stores; the highest number of closings in the U.S. Other reasons for the closures were aging stores and Walgreens that were too close in proximity to each other.

  1. Cool maybe people are finally banning these stores for discriminating pain patients. I encourage everyone i know to not shop there and i hope everyone here especially is doing the same. Its a shame,because i used to shop therell the tine like several times a week but since 2013 when they started discriminating against me i havent stepped foot in one of them and i never will again.

  2. Personally, I hope every single one of them close and take their “Good Faith Dispensing Policy” with them!

    • I agree, shut every single one of them down. We cut them off when they cut my husband and I off after doing purchasing from them for many, many years!!
