Porter Square Walgreens closing

[keithn.livejournal.com]

While not Davis Square, this is still likely of interest since I'm sure many of us are regularly in Porter Square - the Walgreens there is closing on July 30.

It will probably be a shock to few that this store failed, although I'm somewhat surprised that it failed so quickly.

I'm not sure how not having the self checkout leads to better customer service. You have the choice to use it or not if you don't like it. I personally prefer it as I get tired of having to stop them for bagging things and convincing them no really I don't want a bag please. Their training just simply doesn't include people who don't want to waste bags.

Any time I go to a supermarket and hand them my own cloth or canvas bags, they are happy to fill them.

Great, but if you just want to carry something out in your hands, they look at you like you have 3 heads.
