CVS vs. Walgreens

CVS... we had one right down the street from our town-home back East and really lived there. It was so convenient and everything was laid out so nicely. The carpet is a nice touch. The one drawback was that if you were on one of the two-sided signs you needed to know Spanish. Si...

Well, we thought Walgreens would be similar, right? New store, in our nice desert neighborhood, right next to the hospital, easily accessible from a couple roads, convenient, has a pharmacy and other items one needs... So what is the difference!

CVS ROCKS and Walgreens -- at least this one -- is just not cool. The shelves are stacked up to the ceiling, the linoleum is just gross, and there just does not seem to be any signage.

Now, every CVS I have been to, on the other hand, the shelves do not go up over your head, nor are there items places above. There are signs everywhere - in multiple languages - and clearly written. The carpets are usually clean and things are just very organized.

Next time, I will drive the few extra miles (I think it's only 2) to hit the CVS!
