Walgreens

"It doesn’t matter if your prescription is called in five hours ago or 10 hours ago. It’s never ready. They say 5 more minutes which turns into 10. Then, if you leave and come back, we’re back in their 20 minute line."

"I made an appointment at Walgreens in Santee to receive a Moderna COVID-19 vaccination. After driving half an hour in traffic to get there, and waiting 15 minutes in line at the pharmacy counter, I was finally "checked in" by an associate and told to wait. After about 10 more minutes, they came back and told me that my insurance didn't cover COVID vaccines at Walgreens. I asked them to charge the vaccine to the federal Bridge program, which the CDC describes as covering vaccines for people who have no insurance, or whose insurance won't pay the cost. I was told that they couldn't do that. The same thing happened to two other people who had the appointments after me! All of us were told that we could get vaccinated for $150. This Walgreens is taking appointments to actively NOT give vaccines! If there are really such restrictions on funding the vaccine via the bridge program, and if they are really so picky about what insurance they will take, they really ought to check your insurance before you drive half an hour each way and then wait 25 minutes in the store to get told that you are not going to be vaccinated. How is this organization furthering public health? I am done with Walgreens."

"Went there for shoe arch supports for women. Quite a variety available. Did find one that fit the bill (and shoes). Very nice selection of cosmetics, snacks, electronics, cold drinks, greeting cards, etc. They do have a photo center to print your photos or obtain a passport photo."

"They refuse to price match to the walgreens website and have a $10 minimum online pick up. They want to charge $3 more for garnier shampoo and $5 more for walgreens brand lotion vs the price on the website. These were regular prices, not sale prices. Online customer service says deciding to price match is up to the store and this store does not. Take away the $10 minimum at least.."

"I've been going here for almost 10yrs. They always go above and beyond to make sure a script I can't miss, gets refilled on time. The Santee store is the best I've ever been to, and the people who work there, are some of the nicest I've ever come across. THANK YOU to everyone there, I super appreciate all that you do! Best wishes in 2023!!!"
