Walgreens

Corner drugstore chain

Walgreens is an American pharmacy and convenience store chain, one of the largest in the country.

The stores combine prescription services with retail goods—toiletries, snacks, greeting cards, and household items.

Like CVS, Walgreens locations are ubiquitous in American cities and suburbs, often found on busy corners: I need to stop at Walgreens for my prescription.
