We really like our Walgreens Pharmacy. We had mail prescription service once, not our choice but we went with it. I have to say there is nothing like pulling the delivery out of the mailbox on a hot, humid day and reading the very warm container of medication with the instructions of "keep in a cool, dry place". So much for efficacy. We were delighted to be rid of that service.
