This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I went to Walgreens today (9/29/09) and received a receipt from the pharmacy. It said I could go online for the $3000. monthly sweepstakes within 72 hrs. All the material on that page were advertising, with no way of entering the sweepstakes. Please have this corrected.

WHATS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE? DONT YOU KNOW HOW TO READ A RECEIPT. EXPLAINS EVERYTHING FROM WHERE TO FIND SURVEY. I GUESS YOU GUYS DONT KNOW HOW TO USE A COMPUTER.

I would like to read when some one wins! I would like to read what the winner has to say.
How often is a winner picked and is the winner picked throughout the United States or per
a number of stores/district? When was the last winner picked?

Thanks, chanobrown1@aol.com

All you have to do is go to www.WalgreensFeedback.com it has worked for me Everytime and goes straight to the survey page. I agree with Lala3124... read the Directions.. They're there for a reason. It's not that hard people!

I called the number that was on the back of my receipt I got after a purchase to enter the $3000 a month sweepstakes. However, on the other end of the line I heard "number of sweepstakes entries by phone has already been met but you may go online for the sweepstakes survey". So, here I am looking for such a survey. It is really annoying to have to take the time out to participate in a survey anyway, let alone try to find the dang thing! If Walgreens so called "sweepstakes survey" is not legit then they should not advertise it!

I must beg to differ some of the complaints, granted I have not read all of them. When discussing the online survey, I must say I did not have any trouble finding the website when reading what links to choose from. I did choose inappropriately at first as my eyes caught the "$3000" print, but did not realize until I prematurely clicked the complaint for the "$3000" survey. However when I typed in the website correctly, walgreensfeedback.com, as was listed on my receipt, I found the link to the survey above the complaint link. I feel bad others have had such a bad experience but must say it was easy for me.

I have a chronic pain medication that I have to filled with a prescription every month and I feel that the pharmacist should not try to be my doctor and give attitude because of the dosage amount. I've been taking this medicine for over 3 years now and my Dr. & physical therapist prescribe this medicine for me. Please tell pharamacist to stopping trying to my doctor and just fill the prescription given to me from the Dr. Otherwise every other part of the store has been super helpful and courteous. DAMON54

The only thing that needs more work is the pharmacy ; they always are behind and takes longer than they say. I would like to see more smiling faces and better customer service. All the other department are great.

I buy Consort mens hair spray at Publix for 3.49. At the local Walgreens, it is 4.29 Some of your prices are not competitive. You should do more comparison pricing. Boca Bobby Alan

Complete survey for $1000 WalMart card. Questions had NOTHING to do with my shopping experience or with Wal Mart . Good only if you are willing to give out your personal information for the advertisers in order to be harassed.
Obviously ethics and truth in advertising belong to fantasy land these days. Walgreens survey for $3000 no different!

the feedback/survey is available at www.walgreensfeedback.com if you search in google and came to this site then you should have clicked the first listed link... However When i had my recent perscription filled at walgreens, i was shorted 3 of my 15 pills! so make sure to ALWAYS count the number of pills you receive!

I agree with you ALL! I just left Walgreen's in Alpharetta, GA. There were neon green signs posted EVERYWHERE! "Win 3, 000 dollars today! Ask a team member how" So when I asked the cashier, she had no clue what I was talking about. The manager came up to us and rudely said "THE REGISTER HAS TO SPIT OUT A SPECIAL RECIEPT WITH THE SURVEY AND IT'S TOTALLY RANDOM" So I say, okay... if I don't get the "special receipt" can I go online and take the survey? And he says "I DON'T KNOW, YOU CAN TRY" Of course I went to the site and got NOTHING! Womp womp womp!

My boyfriend of 3 years and I recently needed the Plan B pill. We are always careful with birth control, but accidents happen, and this pill is designed for just that purpose. When we arrived, however, the pharmacist was not at all professional. He looked at us as if we were horrible people, which did not add any more ease to an already stressful evening. When he asked for IDs, he said, "I need an ID. I don't care. Somebody's. Anybody's." He wouldn't even look at me, he only addressed my boyfriend. He took my boyfriend's ID. He asked MY BOYFRIEND if he had any questions, even though I was the one whose health could potencially be affected. If you are a pharmacist, it doesn't matter what pill you are selling, or what your personal beliefs are. You should treat people with respect and do your job. Even if I were 17 and had just had a one night stand, the pharmacist is certainly not the person to judge my actions. A pharmacist is there for health education and information about potential drug interactions and side effects. So please. By all means. Do your job.

I appreciate the fact that at walgreens they cross reference my medications for interactions. They have also posted very important history with regard to a drug interaction on my record which happened in the past. The new drug I was given was a short time on the market. An ssri medication which is an antidepressant was given to me, and since I had developed pneumonia I used an over the counter cough medecine which contained dextromethorophan...A drug interaction occurred. They also take time to answer my questions for I also realize I am in charge of my own health and since I had a bad experience in the past they are very patient and understanding. Thank You Walgreens for your help and support.

when you enter www.walgreensfeedback.com and get a list of sites, you must make sure it says walgreensfeedback.com in the green highlight. other sites are listed there so be careful, stroll down list about the 10th or so down.

hi, those of you who are having trouble getting to the site. when you get to list of sites, it's about the 8th choice down and shows the site in green highlight. good luck to you. (Make sure you don't choose the first, it'll take you to a load of sign up gimmey's, you don't want...)

Shame on you, to you that are being ignorant and rude. We all now how to read, not computer geeks and understand...

My wife and I use Walgreen's pharmacy now because, the last store that we used ran out of our medication quite often. I would like to win the gift card because it would save us money.

wow! tried twice to get to the survey. finally got to it, but it says my ticket ( reciept) expired? I tried to take the survey before the 72hrs were up? Bogus and misleading! WARNING you also have less than 20 minutes to take your survey- that is IF you get on the site to begin with-
too bad. I kinda liked the store. Oh well. They gotta do something to get pple lured in. Guess Iam a sucker like everyone else! I will be more careful, and just throw the reciept away.

THIS IS KIND OF DUMB, YOU KNOW! IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO AWARD THE $3k THEN DON'T POST IT ON YOUR WEBSITE. IN MY BOOK, THAT'S FALSE ADVERTISING. i'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR OVER A YEAr and NOTHING HAS BEEN POSTED AND NO MONEY AWARDED...ANNE CASEY
