They were doing well enough to build a brand new building up the street last year, with a drive thru. They know you by your first name, and you can bring your dog in if you want.

In the meantime, the Walgreens closed their big store, that sold all kinds of stuff, and built a small pharmacy building. I think they only have drive thru drugs.
