Walgreens

The experience at this Walgreens is amazing! This location is perfect, its never too crowded and parking is a breeze. Would totally recommend it to anyone needing a small household item.

It's a great place to do small essential shopping and to get your prescriptions filled at the same time

Decent, medium sized Walgreens store just next to Midtown Shopping Center in Palo Alto. Well equipped with the usual stuff, has a photo center which can print photos, posters and banners. It has a pharmacy, offering Covid vaccines and flu shots.

Smaller Walgreens store with an on-site pharmacist. Typical Walgreens prices. They do have Fedex pickup and dropoff here, despite the Fedex locator map showing the location to be 2 miles to the south. I never have trouble finding parking here.

I love the store because they have are lots parking It also is not busy every day I got what I need and this close to me

Pretty much your standard-issue Walgreens. Always have friendly staff working there.

This place turned into a fiasco for me 🙁👎i waa visiting for a few weeks , attending events at nearby Stanford campus, and i started getting a check engine light (CEL) for my Mass Airflow Sensor (MAF). SO I went to eBay to search for the part, and found one. But before I ordered it, I called this FedEx/ Walgreens & asked if i could have it delivered there for me. The young fellow said "Sure, no problem". So I went ahead and ordered it . The next day I notice the seller switched from FedEx to UPS ( & still later UPS handed it off to USPS).

Meanwhile I called back to Walgreens & this time a lady answered (turns out she's the manager named Madeline) & asked if they would accept the package 📦 from USPS and if I could still pick it up. Her loud emotional response left me in a state of inner turmoil. I was stunned & shocked by her demeanor. First, she raised her voice and said "You sent a package to MY ADDRESS⁉" as if it was her personal home address (I'm pretty sure she doesn't own the store nor lives there).

So already I was already alarmed at her sense of excessive entitlement just because she's the manager. Then she screeched "That's illegal. It's illegal" blah blah . I told her that one of the store employees had given me the okay. She screeched again "He misinformed you". Everything she said was spoken on a tone as if this was a 911 emergency. I finally just hung up, it was so upsetting and out-of-control on her part. So I tried to stop shipping but the eBay seller said it was too late.

The item was eventually delivered to the Walgreens but I didn't even try to go pick it up. I didn't want to go anywhere near this place after the conversation with Madeline. I sent a complaint to Walgreens corporate and told them no matter how much she thinks this is her store, she still has a Legal Obligation to "Return to Sender" .

Eventually the package 📦 apparently was returned to sender but without the requisite "return label" eBay provides in such cases. It will probably get back to the seller eventually but they weren't sounding very promising that I would get a refund without the refund return label.

The only good thing to come from all of this is that eBay stood up and said that given the circumstances, they would refund me OUT OF THEIR OWN POCKET.
Thank you eBay 👍. Shame on Madeline most of all 👎. Your behavior and tone was unacceptable.

Long lines at the pharmacy and very slow to fill prescriptions unless you pester them.

Good store.
