September, 2021

With more than 7,500 locations throughout mainland USA and Puerto Rico, Walgreens is the nation’s largest drugstore chain.

Since doors to the first Walgreens on St. Thomas opened in September of 2013, it has been a real convenience “game-changer” for anyone traveling on-or-off island and in need of prescription refills.

Today, chances are, no matter where you travel — wherever you live — it’s easier than ever to refill a prescription at the Walgreens near you. What an ideal reason to rely on Walgreens for all your prescription needs!

Additionally, here on St. Thomas, the store features an expanded beauty section, as well as a consultation area designed for customers to interact directly with the pharmacist.

Photo services are also available — as are V.I. souvenirs, a large selection of greeting cards, liquor, beer, and wine.

The mini-mart section offers basics including breakfast items, snacks, coffee, sodas, juices, and more — but do keep in mind that delivery delays sometimes can cause a few shelves to empty out temporarily.

 Walgreens is located at 4030 Anna’s Retreat on Weymouth Rhymer Highway next to First Bank, across from Tutu Park Mall. Click HERE to find it with Google Maps.

Walgreens is open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. and major credit cards are accepted.
