But they still sell liquor?
Does this make any sense, or is there more profit in liquor?

Used moderately and with caution, alcohol is harmless.
Used moderately and with caution, cigarettes will still kill you.

Meh, but the chances are pretty small if you only occasionally smoke.
Do they still sell Reece's Peanut Butter Cups and Doritos and Coke?

Maybe for everyone's health they should just close down?

They should. Anyone could OD on a number of prescriptions they fill. Dangerous stuff at CVS.

Well, MANY MANY people that drink Liquor do so occasionally. In fact, that probably describes that vast majority.
Cigarettes really can't be said to have that same reality.

I wish they sold pot. Maybe they do in the legal states. I am pretty sure sure they sell the medical varieties. Wonder if they stopped selling these cigarettes?

Of course there is more profit on liquor.

CVS most definitely does not sell marijuana anywhere.
You must go to dedicated dispensaries. No way would CVS try to become a dispensary unless federal law is overturned. Posted on 12/24/14 at 10:44 pm to Traffic Circle
The only thing I can't figure out is that I'm sure they were making a ton of money selling cigarettes. Sounds like a terrible business move to me.

It's the liquor talking through you, Mr. Lahey

Do they still sell candy and coke? I wonder if more people die from diabetes than lung cancer.

we also sell cheese puffs that can possibly lead to cardiovascular problems....
being it's known that smoking is directly related to substantially increased risk of cancer, and it's not a necessity for people, with absolutely no health benefit to speak of, we as a HEALTH CARE company made a willing effort to stop selling the product...
as long as i have been a pharmacist, i have never, ever understood how a pharmacy can sell a product like cigarettes... and smokers, please fricking spare me, because i dip (while at work, to boot), so i know all about how hard it is to quit and shite....

estimated to lose over 2 billion from cigarettes sales alone.... but our stock price has never been higher...
eventually, ALL pharmacies will follow suit, whether by choice or force... it's really only a matter of time...

you could just as easily OD on regular arse Tylenol... it's not just prescription "drugs" that can kill you...
i agree we have some bad shite, that people tend to play around with, but trust me, you don't wanna mess with it too much.... it's hell to get off of for good...
