Walgreens

My go-​to store on weekends because they have everything I need, including food. Also open 24 hours & the Walgreen’s bin is handy for making donations. They even have a movie rental dispenser outside the store. Very convenient + parking and always get what you want because they are also well-​stocked. Recommend.

Deep in the heart of one of my favorite parts of BayRidge, I do ¹⁄₃ of my shopping
that includes at least once to twice a week trips to Walgreens, you never know what
you will find here even without the weekly circular. Thats progress.
The staff is always on the ball and the wait time at check out has improved somewhat.
If they had a location without a parking lot, the store may have a diverse effect on
business. Parking is the worse out here on the streets, unless you are an early bird.
Thank you again Walgreens and their team.

They ended up giving me copies again. Although copies weren’t as good as before at least they tried. Photos now appear larger in person than on my iPad… Wasn’t the case before. But I heard they have a new system… So maybe that’s it. I will still limit how many prints I get.

Nice location. Well lit, clean and didn’t make me feel weird being in at a late hour. Otherwise, not much else to say about it; just your typical Walgreens.

I recently went to Walgreens to purchase a buy 1 get 1 free item that I had noticed the night before, when I arrived it was still on sale the added sale sticker was still below the item. When I went to checout at the register the item was not in the system as on sale, the asian man incharge of tagging the items with the prices went to retrieve the sticker/​tag with the sale price. When returning back to the register he had said there was no sale tag on or below the item, I then went to retrieve it to find that it was removed (by who)? GUESS, the asian tag boy, he denied it and I asked for the manager who was no help at all, I also asked for someone to look at the video tape to show that I was sane and this was true, I was told there is no camera in that section, ANOTHER LIE. In the most pricey section where the diet supplements are there is no camera, yea ok. Anyway this action that he pulled is illegal and the manager went along with it probably because the item was no longer on sale and the asia boy failed to remove the ticket when he should have. They are not doing there job right in this place and I am contacted consumer affairs regarding this matter. Buyers beware…

I found great gifts in here, they have so much to offer, the beauty center, photo lab, as seen on TV books and different items that you would like to order on TV or internet and don’t want to pay shipping. The pharmacists are very helpful and knowledgeable.
It’s a bit of a walk for me but it’s all worth it!

Doesn’t matter the time of day, there is always a wait. Nothing special to point out but the employees do a good job keeping the place stocked and trying to make the lines move as fast as they can.
PLEASE restock the COCOA almonds!

This is a pretty normal, ordinarily good drugstore. Nothing special, except one thing… they have a refrigerator case full of ready-​made salads, sandwiches and sushi, including napkins, plastic cutlery and even chopsticks. And I appreciate this, because there are some good vegetarian options and there is almost NOTHING vegetarian or vegan in that part of Brooklyn except Energy Fuel, which I think sucks (
).

Not a big fan of Walgreen because of the long wait on line.
The parking lot was a plus but when i was on line waiting to rent at the red-​box, i think a woman came out of Walgreen and left the stuff in the car than go coffee shop across the street. The guy stand at the corner pull over a tow truck in 5 min later. About the same time, the women came back and the tow truck guy charge her $$ for lifting fee, and said she was illegally park in the lot. That looks like a scam to me. I think Walgreen should give some courtesy to their shoppers. Just think people should know about this.

When this place first opened I was sad. I wanted my Key food Supermarket back. At first I vowed that I wouldn’t shop their but then one day I needed B-​Natal pops to help with my pregnancy nausea and the pharmacist was no help at Rite Aid, so I feeling as sick as I did and not wanting to walk to far, went inside.
This store is for the most part your typical pharmacy. They have a photo center, beauty products, personal hygiene items, cleaning products for the house, a few aisles with food and an actual pharmacy where you can get your prescription filled. One nice thing is that they do carry some produce, which was a bit surprising to me. I’m figuring they are doing this because they replaced a supermarket.
Well anyway, on my first trip I went to the pharmacist and asked if they carried B-​Natal pops. She started by congratulating me on my pregnancy. Then she told me that they didn’t have them but that she could order them for me and they would be there the following morning. The following day I went around 10:00am and sure enough the pops were there, waiting for me with my name on them. Talk about great service and follow through.

Combined with Rite Aid, you have the total of one great store. Separately? Not so much. I’m used to larger Walgreen’s that are more like mini Walmart’s and less like bodegas. The store is clean, there are some good deals when the stuff is on sale, and the staff is really nice… so that’s where this place earns 2 stars. The one thing I hate is the checkout — there is ALWAYS a line… always. Get off the train right after work? Line. Go there at 9pm? Line. Stop in at 11am on a Saturday? Line. Need to pick up a small item in a hurry on a Sunday afternoon? Line. I have yet to find a time of day where there ISN’T a long line. And I’m not talking a quick couple minute wait — I’m talking a good 10 — 15 minute wait with about a dozen people in line. That’s when I usually drop everything I have and head over to Rite Aid.

Clean, clutter-​free store with great weekly specials. Should put Rite Aide out of business by 2012.

This is a good thing to have in the neighborhood.
Yes it replaced a Key Foods supermarket, but that place wasn’t really that great any way. TheFood Town down the street is the best supermarket in the area.
This store has a wide variety of merchandise, and offers reasonably priced sale items each week.
I agree, this is probably overkill, with a Rite Aid one block away, but the groceries available in this store are slightly
As far as savings go, you really need to basically time their circular sales, and cherry pick the deals. Big Roll Toilet paper at 50cents per roll. Buy one get one on Blue Diamond Almonds, etc. etc.
The sales repeat, and you can simply use the store for your needs, and for the convenience of the other products.
While the staff is very friendly and helpful, this place gets 3 stars for not instituting a better checkout system.
I was PRAYING for self checkout kiosks when this place was being built, because I noticed some Walgreen’s that have that in the suburbs. Here, the queue forms any where it wishes, leaving me frustrated and anxious when someone «accidentally» starts a new queue or cuts in line. What is so hard about using a velvet rope type cattle chute? Sooooo much better.
Also, an extra tip, there is a nice farmers market on the parking lot of this location during the weekends of the warmer weather months. (not super cheap deals… really just an fyi)

For such a large store that Key Food used to be in this very location, the Walgreen’s in tiny.
It’s the same old Rite Aid/​Duane Reade type of place with those types of inflated prices. There are plenty of mom and pop shops in the neighborhood to get your things are at a better price.

A Key Food supermarket used to be where this Walgreens now stands. I wish we still had that supermarket. There’s a Rite Aid one block over and a Duane Reade on 86^th Street, so there really wasn’t a need for this store. That being said, this Walgreens is just average. When my father lived in Las Vegas, he had a Walgreens by his apartment. That store had aisles or food items and frozen food. When something was on sale, you could actually purchase it and did not need to wait around for someone to issue a raincheck. The prices at Walgreens aren’t much better than Rite Aid’s and the selection of items is pretty similar. I haven’t filled a prescription here, but I am guessing it can’t be worse than Rite Aid — the home of the two day wait to get the pills you need.
The sales help are nicer than the staff at Rite Aid. They actually say hello and thank you. I guess the best thing about this Walgreens is that they sell my favorite cookies, Belgian Biscoffs. You can get them for two packs for $ 5.00. Take them as your next hostess gift. They will be a big hit.
This location is open from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00p.m. every day.
