One of the few "brandname" drug store chains in Newark. Prices are actually pretty steep in the food pantry isle, so look for yellow tag specials. 2/$3 Goldfish or 2/$3 Combos for example. 3 12pk cans of CocaCola products is also a prominent deal.
this five star walgreens has many good things going for it. here's a quick 'pro' list –
1. it's open 24 hours 2. there's a parking lot (in nortoriously parking-unfriendly newark) 3. there's a food section (though, yelper albert w is right in saying prices are steep – but if you need it, you need it and it's there). 4. it's clean and non-skeevy 5. the lines move at a decent pace 6. they sell portuguese rolls there
the only 'con' is that some of the stock is locked behind clear plastic enclosures (to prevent shoplifting). so, for example, if you want to buy deodorant, you have to press a button by the plastic case. the PA system will announce in a sterile fembot voice, "customer representative needed in the deodorant section," so everyone in the store knows you're buying deodorant.
see, i'm a low-key person, so this is a bit of a con for me. however, i'd say it's one of the better pharmacies to go to if in newark.
