I've read some of these posts, and so many people are complaining about things that are a result of their OWN STUPIDITY! For example, if you're out of refills and waiting for your doctor to authorize it, then hello...don't blame the pharmacy! Every prescription I've ever gotten in my entire life ALWAYS says how many refills are left, and when they expire, including my Rite Aid prescriptions. If you were to read the label, you would know...its all right there in black and white. As far as rude employees go, the Rite Aid in my city in Oregon has none...they are all top-notch, friendly folks who always seem genuinely appreciative of my business. And folks, you have to remember that these people are not going to treat you like a princess if you treat them like garbage. If you're rude to them, they will likely be rude to you. Many of us are downright abusive to people in the service industry, without even realizing it. Though the decor at some of the stores is looking a little old these days, the stores are always clean and organized, unlike the Wal-Mart that looks like a tornado tore through it most days. My experience with Walgreens usually makes me feel like I'm inconveniencing the employees by walking down the aisle they happen to be working in. I really like Rite Aid for their reasonable prices, and of course even cold beer for sale (the cheapest in town, too!).
