Dear Walgreens ....

Dear Walgreens ....

Dear Walgreens in Freeport,

I drive past your store 2x a day as you are on my route to work. I've been trying to make a baby for 11 cycles now, so there have been many occasions when I needed to purchase ovulation predictors or pregnancy tests. You sell both of these types of products, and I'm sure you'd love to have my business. For the convenience factor, I certainly wouldn't mind giving you my business.

However, since I look about 1/2 my age (on a good day people think I'm 18!) ... I refuse to be forced into discussing my purchases with the gangly pimple-faced teen you call an "assistant manager" because you keep these products in a case under lock & key.

Thanks for giving me 1 more reason to buy this stuff on line!

Sincerely,
I'm really not a teenager!

I can totally relate! How ironic because when I had to pick up an opk last month I refused to go to Walgreens for the same reason. DH and I went earlier this year for one and a pg test and we had to wait for an announcement to be made over the loud speaker requesting someone to make it over to the family planning area with a key. Umm , don't bother, never again. Needless to say, they haven't seen me since.Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Dear Walgreens ....

Seriously, what is with the lock and key?

DH and I bought a PG test there months ago. The girl comes over, she's about 17. I ask for the CBE digitals and there's only one box left and it's dented to the point that the box is open. So I asked if they had anymore in the back cause I didn't want to take any chances. She tells me why don't I just get these other ones, they worked fine for her!Chat Icon Chat Icon

ahhhhhh!!! thats ridic!

when i was in walmart buying the opk, the girl was like oh, think you have enough?? (i guess she thought they were PG tests, not opk) so i smiled and went about getting my debit out of my wallet, then she is like oh you want a summer baby?? i'm like yeah that would be nice, meanwhile im like mind your own business.Chat Icon

The first time I got up the nerve to buy PG test was at Stop and Shop. I circled around once or twice bc of people nearby only to find that each item was locked in a little plastic box! I went to the self checkout and had to call someone over to unlock it and take it out for me. I will not be doing that again and now I can add Walgreens to the list of places I won't be shopping!
