Walgreens is a pharmacy most Americans choose to partonize. Walgreens has everything in one stop and is easy to find what you need. The Walgreens on the corner of Spring Garden and Aycock is the closest to me. This store just opened in 2008 and they have been busy ever since.

There are many advantages to this Walgreens. It is walking distance for me, that way I don't have to use my gas. They have about everything you need, food, cosmetics, medicine, a pharmacy with drive thru, photo lab and toiletries. They have the Redbox DVD rentals and some are open 24/7. When coming on Aycock toward Lee St, it is easy to turn right into their parking lot. They even have their own turning lane, which makes it great for those who want to turn. This particular store has great customer service. Everytime I go in there I feel welcomed. Their store is very clean, mostly because it is new. Also an advantage to this store is that it is near a college campus with students walking down Spring Garden all the time. With Walgreens being at the very corner of the campus most students would go there instead of CVS across the street because it is right there.

There aren't a lot of disadvantages to this particular store. One being if you are coming toward campus on Spring Garden and you want to go to Walgreens, you have to turn left onto Aycock then turn left into their parking lot. Another disadvantage is that there is only one entrance. You have to drive around the building to get to the front, which can be a hassle sometimes. When you exit Walgreens' parking lot, there is only one way to turn. With Walgreens being close to college and depending on college students for their sales, while school is out their sales might decrease. Overall, I like Walgreens and that is where i prefer to shop for last minute products.
