walgreens was a small drugstore chain. they got national when they started selling alcohol during prohibition as a remedy (exactly like it happens with marijuana in some states now).

nowadays they sell pretty much everything, even prescription medicine in a distant corner :)

most of what they sell is cheap snacks, 99cents products and trinkets.

also walgreens and other drugstores here all have their own brand of copied medicine "walgreens product X. compare to Brand Y product X" on the labels
