To close on February 29th. Store has been previously ransacked

Not surprising given the empty shelves and proximity of Target.

Wonder how long until the target closes

Wendys or Burger King - I'm calling it

I think all the CVS stores are about to close. The shelves are bare, the CVS signs are crumbling, in general they are dens of despair.

I hate going to CVS and having to ask someone to unlock toothpaste for me, so I ordered from CVS online, and the website is terribly slow and everything is taking forever and half to arrive. CVS is doomed, and we're all going to be stuck with amazon dupes from China for our prescriptions.

The problem is not CVS. The problem is crime. No store is going to stay open if people steal all their shit. That entire area is going to way of Chinatown

Who could have possibly seen this coming?

At this point, just bring on the decline so that maybe we’ll elect new leaders that can begin the 30-year process of dragging us out from it.

Here's a video of a perp ruining a CVS for the rest of us.

Is it all that you imagined?

Yes. People are animals. And stores have no recourse.

It's a tough business model when a store has rent and other fixed expenses, and then has a lot of its merchandise stolen and then re-sold outside by pop-up vendors who offer the stolen goods at a fraction of the retail price.

Guess that's "equity" - DC style.

You have no proof of this. That's pure speculation.

No way! Couldn’t it just sell stuff right in front on the street as it’s been doing? Street criminals, I mean vendors, will not have to steal, I mean procure, their wares from a farther CVS. Human rights are in the balance!

You can thank Charles Allen and the other clowns on the DC Council. It's more important that we be nice to violent criminals.

Sorry, I stopped caring about the awful CVS at 14 and Irving NW closing three weeks ago when it was announced. My life is busy and successful and I don't have time or energy to waste worrying about race hysteria when there are three other pharmacies within two blocks of that intersection and at least two more within walking distance.

F CVS and F all you Columbia Heights hating race baiters.

Who brought up race but you? You sound insane.
