There's a bear case to be made about the over-storing of retail pharmacies. Where I live there were no CVS units 10 years ago. Now they're everywhere, and twice as many Wags as back then. And a 2018 Walgreens is much bigger than one from 30 years ago.

I'm not terribly optimistic about drugstore stocks. But I'll hold.

They need to bring back their famous malts. Fascinating reading, complete with Wags' recipe from 1922

"Old Fashioned Chocolate Malted Milk

Use a Frosted Malt Can
1 1/2 oz. Chocolate Syrup
3 - #16 Dips of Vanilla Ice Cream
5 1/2 oz. of Cold Milk
Add Malt Powder (One Heaping Tablespoonful)
Place On Mixer Only Until Mixed - Do Not Over Mix
Use a Generous Portion of Whipped Topping In A #1808 - 10 oz. Glass
Pour Malted Milk in Glass Approximately 2/3 Full
Serve Remainder Of Malted In A Shaker Along With The Glass To The Guest With Straws and Package of Fountain Treat Cookies"
