Until Corporate can fund a buyer for retail this will continue.

Sounds like rest of cvs is now getting what Alabama got last year-
DL says he knows it's tough and agrees he could not do it- but it's our job and we have to or go to greener pastures - stores low volume are 84-120 hours
Mid volume 145-170 -
A few high volume 60-100k- run off
Max of around 225
Welcome to our world - s—s

Not as predicted, only 7 of 16 stores impacted with reduced hours on weekends. Basically store that are very low volume.

It’ll be a big deal when people are laid off if they refuse to relocate.

This is no big deal people. Years ago stores opened at 8 and closed at 9. Sunday’s were 9-6 FS and RX. Times were different then. Times were different again when we expanded our hours in the competition landscape was changing. Times are different now again. Delivery can fill in the gap’s for peoples need to have their pr-scrip-ions. They can shop online. Maybe it’s time to change the open all the time.

I love how everyone thinks how crazy it is to close the front store early, but nobody says anything at all about closing the pharmacy early. A little hypocritical don’t you think?

Closing early on the weekends in the FS is the craziest thing I’ve ever heard. Sorry, got can’t stop in to buy your beer, chips and whatever else for the party you are headed to a 7pm, because we are CLOSED.

Have unscheduled conference call tomorrow. Pretty sure it’s about RX and FS hours of operation. Could also be some FS stores coming off 24 hours especially if the RX came off previously.

These “last minute” calls should be done by now, based on the posts times. Odd there is no follow up post. B.S.
