In this area of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware there were 50 on the original list with locations closing this year.
The Rite Aid on Rt. 9 in Beachwood closed, that was one that was on the list. In Ocean County, we have well over ten Rite Aid Stores and pharmacies open. They have not been affected, and I'm hoping they won't be.
I feel there are a lot of pharmacies right around the corner from each other. Whether it's Walgreen's or Rite Aid, they're always so close to each other. And, most grocery stores have a pharmacy to for all of our needs, maybe there's no need for pharmacies anymore, especially with Walmart Superstores?
