That cvs had the most random shit locked away like body wash. I went to get Advil and the girl made me follow her there and step away from the case. Good riddance.

To you that might seem ridiculous but people rob, steal, and shoot for way less especially in Philadelphia.

….They lock things up at stores in every city.

Your point? Whatever it is, it doesn’t invalidate mine even in the slightest 😂

Just weird that people go out of their way to shit on Philly at every chance. Someone posted a pic of locked up stuff at a Philly Target on some other sub (also to shit on Philly) and people were commenting from like dozens of cities saying it was the same there.

Philadelphia consistently ranks above the national average in terms of crime, especially violent offenses. Sorry that you’re in denial. If you’re from Philly, your pride is blinding you to the facts. Look it up.

I know the stats. Doesn’t make it less weird how much the Philly sub hates Philly and still exaggerates at times.

You clearly don’t know the stats if you’re willing to argue that it’s “weird” that a subreddit of a city is simply AWARE that their city is dangerous. I didn’t say it was the most dangerous but it tops multiple charts. But I won’t argue your opinion with you any longer, God bless.

It's like that in almost every CVS in the city now. My local one at 43rd and Locust is the same, but the employees there are great and somewhat embarrassed about the entire situation. I had to ask for generic prilosec that was locked up.

I go to that one too. I love putting my body against the freezers and moaning

If the city actually provided a decent opportunity at life with our tax dollars, people wouldn't have to steal

Oooh sorry for the downvotes, people hate when you point out that individual responsibility wont fix collective issues

Yeah it's much easier to be mad at poor people. 'If only they stopped drinking a $7 coffee every day they'd be able to rise out of homelessness!'

Idgaf about downvotes but thanks :)

Right, cause it’s their fault that people steal shit all the time??

No but you don’t have to treat every person like a criminal especially since I’m asking for the meds not being shady

Yeah i just buy that kinda shit on amazon these days. I’m not searching for the one employee in the entire store to help me get a stick of deodorant

Same. And at CVS if you push the button to get an employee to unlock the case it announces to the whole store that you need assistance in deodorants or whatever. I know it’s not embarrassing to buy deodorant everyone does it but the whole store doesn’t have to know my business.
