Why Holden needs three pharmacy chains - week of 23 Nov

Just a reminder that the folks of Holden are struggling along, bearingup under great privation, with only two national pharmacy chains (Rite-Aid and CVS) in town. A third, Walgreens, is under construction on Main Street.

Rite-Aid, with the slogan, and I'm not making this up, Rite Aid Pharmacy - With Us, It's Personal, is offering some creepy male enhancement products.

In the meantime, CVS is offering a Complete Multi-purpose solution, although they don't say a solution to what. It's only as you read the tiny, tiny print do you see that it's a contact lens solution. To think, we almost had a complete solution.

Anyway, the guy who has the, ahem, enhancement products and a complete solution, so that he can see clearly, now needs to look cool, eh? Well, if there was a Walgreens in town, there'd be no problem cuz he could get a set of Coor's Light slippers.

How cool is that? Yeah, about that cool. Bring on the Snoopy boxer shorts and there's no stopping the guy.

That is, if only there was a Walgreens in town.
