CVS also has those yucky grey carpets. They're like old outdoor porch carpeting. You'd think that they would come up with a new look, because it makes the pharmacies look and feel dirty even if they aren't.[/quote

CVS does seem like a dirty convenience store because of the gross carpet.

+1 I've gotten used to it but have never gotten used to a K Mart.


+1. K Mart has always smelled like rubber tires to me.


PP here. That's a good description, although it smells like cheap candy to me.

I stopped going to Starbucks for the same reason.

I hate that smell, too! I hate the food but even if I loved it I would never go in because of the stink.
