I remember the local rite aid giving me all kinds of grief and not having them in stock the med for sinus trouble called sudafed.
well I know it is used for m e t h making but it is also a good sinus med, and I wanted some so finally I just told them never mind and that I would go elsewhere.
Then I saw in the news that rite aid was busted for not keeping track of how much they sold.....ha I figure someone was making off with it out the back door and selling it on the street and they made feel bad for asking for it.
anyway another story similar to these already mentioned.
He should have lectured their-self not me
I think I told this story before but not sure if it was in this forum.
Yrs. ago I had a prescription for my PK's called in to Walgreens. Went and picked it up and all was good. But, the next day I got another email and phone call from Walgreens telling me my meds were ready. What? The ones I picked up the day before were the only scrip I had filled. Couldn't figure out what it was, so for the hell of it, I went back and they charged me the same amount that my PK's were the day before. I went ahead and paid for it and thinking there was no way it was more of my PK's.
Got out to the car and opened the bag and I'll be darned if they didn't give me the same scrip twice. I couldn't believe they made a BIG mistake like that, especially with the med it was.
I could have brought it back in, but the little devil on my shoulder kept telling me to take off, so I did. Scrip was for 180 that I got twice
For days I would get nervous when the phone rang, thinking it was Walgreens calling to make me bring it back, but they never did. Besides, I know if I had brought them back, they would probably pitch them or someone would snatch 'em. Figured it was better in my pocket rather than theirs LOL
That was the ONLY good experience I ever had with Walgreens. I tell ya, it was like winning the lotto. Wish they would do that again, but it's probably a once in a lifetime mistake (if you're very lucky) on their part. Anyway, I chalk it up to karma for the many times they gave me grief.
I know they are very busy, but they need to be more careful. If they gave someone the wrong med and it killed them, they would be paying dearly for that mistake.
I have also had times where I was shorted on prescriptions. One time by 10 pills. Does no good tho like you say to go back about it once you leave the counter because you know they will never believe your story.
So, that was the ONLY time I had any luv for that pharmacy. I think they should do that more often, don't you?
