If the big draw into your stores is 3 t-shirts for $5, and you put it on your marquee, I expect high school students to be working there.

Is it going into that empty lots where the christmas trees are always sold?


Yes, they are planning a whole shoppig center with CVS as the anchor. Unlike some of the locations that are further along, this is a ground lease and dependent on the whole development taking off.

I would say "Walgreens" does have similarities with another "Wal" store. For example you won't see advertised "3 T-shirts for $5" at CVS.


who cares on that point though?  

the one thing that CVS can improve on Walgreen's is not to hire a bunch of ****ing (and I do mean that literally) high schoolers like the Walgreens at 111th/Mem.


That is the store we use. Never had a problem there.

Amazing how that rain cloud follows you everywhere. Your carpets must be soaked.

CVS does know how to do urban stores. There's one in Coolidge Corner in Brookline, Mass., that's been around since I was in college. But the stand-alone stores I've come across in recent travels look very much like Walgreens.

I have information from well connected reliable sources in Owasso that they have options on a couple of different locations in Owasso.
Trust but verify

Does this mean that the mentioned criticism is now considered null and void?  I have no problem with Walgreens.  I go to Scott Robinson for my prescriptions.  And for all that other stuff,  I pick it up at Target.  Speaking of Target, that new one being built in Broken Arrow looks like a regular target, not a super target.  It looks like the one at Tulsa Hills and there is no super target anywhere on the storefront.
It's hard being a Diamond in a rhinestone world.

You are correct about the Target in Broken Arrow.  It is a regular Target.  Actually, Target is considering giving up on the grocery side of things.  There is no way to compete with Walmart so they are building fewer SuperTargets.  That Target opens in one month.  I would expect traffic at the 71st and 169 Target to dwindle some.

Yes, that is correct.  I heard earlier in the week.  Good location for them.  Walgreens at 111th, Walmart at 111th.  Target across the street.  Certainly among the competition.

CVS should be opening their first 2 Broken Arrow locations soon...anyone have opening dates (61st and Lynn Lane as well as 121st and Elm).  They have a 3rd Broken Arrow location planned for 91st and 145th E. Ave (currently an abandoned gas station).  CVS is also going to build in Owasso on the southeast corner of 96th Street North and 129th East Ave.

And from some of the TMAPC entries I see on their new Google Maps interface, they intend on building one at Admiral and Sheridan where the old shopping center was razed.

I was told all of the locations currently being worked on open next month, including the one in Bixby and one on Harvard.
