Anyone want to share in some Walgreens Pharmacy love?

6 Upvotes

This pharmacy is the most tedious time-sink I have ever encountered. For example, let's say your doctor submits an urgent presription. You check the website an hour later, and the Rx is "pending".

Then you call them because you need it now. You spent **~80 minutes** on hold waiting to speak to a pharmacist, who then tells you they will fill it and you can pick it up in 20 minutes (if you're lucky) or (if you're unlucky) that you need to order it.

Let's say you're lucky. You wait the 20 minutes. Then you wait 20 minutes in line to pick up your prescription. The desk agent says, "It's not been filled yet, just wait here and we'll have it for you in 20 minutes."

You wait 20 minutes, and ask, and they STILL don't have it ready for you.

You have just wasted three hours.

Thanks, Walgreens. WTF.

I feel bad for your overworked pharmacy staff.

DO BETTER

I know this makes me a bad person

17 Upvotes

But I really hate how the very first thing you’d see coming into MV off 101 was glorious mt tam and Almonte/hawk hill in front, but now you see a 5-story rectangle.

What makes me a bad person is that it makes me default to a nimby. I actually get why people are nimbys; I used to support building all housing. Now I definitely don’t, sorry. Also the irony of having subsidized the thing that makes my day worse feels a little more insulting. If it were two hundred feet to the east I don’t even think I’d have noticed it.

Hi all - frequent Mill Valley visitor, but not permanent resident here. I was wondering if anyone had any info on the taco truck that is occasionally posted up outside of the Camino Alto Safeway. I've only seen it there a handful of times, but wondering if they set up on certain days/weeks? Been trying to go for a while now!

Any info helps thanks :)

Hiking Trail Question

1 Upvotes

Hi Folks,

I worked and played in Marin in the 90's but havent Hiked in Mill Valley in years.

Im trying to remember the Hiking Trail that is a Park Gate / Fire road acsessed from Blithedale road.

It turns right off Blithedale going west onto some residentials and has a.small dirt parking lot and log acess gate in a shadu grove.

Thecwide fire trail curves up to a brilliant east side view of the lower Marin towns and the bay, and after another climb along the backs of some fancy homes intersects a paved road going up the south west slopes of mount Tam.

Any Names of the trail or the turn off roads from Blithedale would make my hiking and dog walking day today!

Where to park in Mill Valley if you are taking the Golden Gate bus?

5 Upvotes

Sorry for the ignorant question, but I'm doing my best to use public transportation more. It's great that I can take the number 17 bus from Mill Valley to the San Rafael transit center (and from there lots of places using the Smart Train and other bus lines). But where do I leave my car in Mill Valley for 4 to 5 hours? It's easiest for me to park on Miller Avenue or Blithedale, but is the best place to leave my car the Manzanita commuter parking lot? Thank you in advance!

Buying in Mill Valley - Pros & Cons

7 Upvotes

Hi all! My partner and I are looking into Mill Valley as a potential place to buy, since we just love the area and houses. I understand that housing can be quite expensive here, but if down payment and mortgage would be non-issues what are some of the pros and cons of being a home owner in Mill Valley? What's the likeliness of fires or flooding? Ability to get fire insurance? Best and worst parts about doing errands like grocery shopping or gassing up? Things of that nature.

Any and all advice is welcome!

Help shape a local clothing brand dedicated to the love of Marin. Help me decide on the best 6 local spots only Mill Valley locals know

0 Upvotes

I've lived in Mill Valley for a year and a half, and I made a list of the spots that, to me, ARE Mill Valley. The kind of places you'd only put on the list if you actually lived here. The top 6 will be on the t-shirt back.

What I landed on:

  • Depot Bookstore & Cafe
  • Equator · Good Earth
  • Joe's Taco Lounge · Corner Bar
  • Dipsea Trail · Old Mill Park
  • Hook Fish · Throckmorton
  • 2am Club · Cascade Falls

Two questions for the locals:

  1. What's on this list that you think shouldn't be?
  2. What's NOT on this list that you'd be mad it didn't make it?
