I had to transfer my stuff to Mullica Hill," said Lenny Curtis.
"We’ve made the difficult decision to close our store at 231 West Broad Street in Paulsboro on August 22. All prescriptions will be transferred to the nearby CVS Pharmacy at 1098 Mantua Pike in Wenonah to ensure that patients continue to have uninterrupted access to pharmacy care," said spokesperson Amy Thibault of CVS Pharmacy."I want to know why they’re closing down all the pharmacies," said Nadiyah Sanders.
"Like all retail businesses, we regularly review each of our locations to ensure we are meeting the needs of our customers, communities and overall business. A decision to close a store is one we take very seriously and is based on a variety of factors including business strategy, lease and rent considerations, local business conditions and viability, and store performance," said spokesperson Catherine Carter for Rite Aid.
