No one was coming in, so they scaled back hours (again pre-COVID). They did a renovation, increased their hours to 24/7. The store was falling apart (and I mean pre-COVID). The Rite Aid by me called themselves improving. If they were ok, they would not have been taken over by Walgreens. Am not going up to 96th and Second unless have other reasons to be in that area. Since our local RA closed have just been ordering more things online, or getting them when out on SI or in NJ. Found RA and despite few minor quibbles things were otherwise fine. ĭR used to be my spot, then WG came along prices went up, selection and quality went down. UES alone is littered with several closed DR stores from 72nd to 87th. Then lo and behold even before that aborted deal went through RA, CVS and DR began closing stores. Thus in that sort of deal RA would lose as whatever stores they did have near DR likely would close. In fact you couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting a DR store, they were literally almost just a block away from each other. How does that work?Īt that time DR had many more stores than RA in city. In many areas (such as NYC) you have RA, DR and Walgreens stores literally on same block or within a one block radius of each other. One main reason Walgreens couldn't get their mitts on all of Rite Aid was anti-trust regulators crying foul.
