I stopped there the other morning at 8am to get some stuff and also to drop something across the street at the UPS store. I decided to go to the UPS store first, but was accosted by the manager who told me I had to move my car because it was private property. I explained that I was going to UPS and then to Walgreen’s. He didn’t budge. There was only one car in the parking lot(40 spaces?) and it was mine, but the idiot manager wouldn’t listen, even as I tried to reason with him regarding proper customer service. He then became more and more aggressive in his tone, demanding that I get my car out of the lot. It’s hard to believe that any manager could be so incredibly obtuse as to be that rude to a customer. I certainly won’t ever go back there.

I wanted to write a review of Walgreens on Marginal Way because I have been a frequent customer for almost a year and there are two employees that truly stand out to me that I have received outstanding service from. One employee would be a woman named Saido who has worked there since I started visiting the store. Saido is kind, and helpful. She has always been friendly and has provided great customer service to me with a smile. I always enjoy seeing her at the front counter when she is working. The other employee who I believe was hired recently is named Andy. Andy went above and beyond for me the other day to go out back and check on a product that I needed that wasn’t on the shelves, and sure enough was able to provide me with the product I needed with a positive attitude. Andy is very polite and has exceptional customer service skills. I hope that these employees get the recgonition they deserve. I am reviewing this walgreens location as four stars simply because one night while I was shopping I watched a female manager yelling at an employee in front of customers over a register error of some sort which I found highly inappropriate. Regardless of the questionable management, I just wanna say thank you to all the wonderful walgreens employees over at the marginal way location! I appreciate everything you do for me.

If you haven’t been to a Walgreens before, my guess is you live in the boonies or you have never stepped outside of your home. 75 percent of Americans are within 6 miles of a Walgreens, so chances are you slim that you haven’t been inside one. What I love the most about Walgreens is their prices. They are almost always less expensive than your competitor drug stores, Rite Aid or CVS. I love couponing here! :) Also, their rewards program is pretty sweet if you shop here often! Plus, you can score a ton of freebies on Black Friday! A super positive about Walgreens is their multiple contributions to charities throughout the year and their support to local foundations in the area. Specifically, this Walgreens and the one on Forest Avenue just finished celebrating Lobster day to support Robbie foundation, which helps children and young adults with developmental disabilities throughout Maine. They raised the money to buy adaptive equipment, therapy treatments and other services that are not covered by insurance. Walgreens employees even delivered to businesses if they placed 10 or more order of lobster rolls. How sweet is that! I have a lot of respect for big businesses that are socially responsible and exhibit corporate conscience! PS Yes, I might have a slight bias towards Walgreens since I work for them. However, it’s not like I’m am executive or anything… Haha.
