Insider Pages Reviews for Walgreens
I sometimes bring a few rolls of film in here to get developed. I have never been disappointed by the service, although I must say that I am using them less and less as I move to digital. They have good prices and good service.

This 24-hour Walgreen's in Pilsen has everything you'd expect from a chain drugstore, I suppose. But tred lightly. At least one of the nighttime security personnel is a tad high-strung. My roommate and I (both average-looking twenty-somethings) have both been groundlessly accused of shoplifting. In her case, the staff wasted an hour of her life reviewing security camera footage, then sent her along without an apology. Also, many items are often out of stock, and the lines get long during hot hours.
PROS: Typical Walgreen's selection, lots of cheap specials, mostly helpful staff
CONS: Aggressive guards, many items out of stock, long lines
