Many months ago I walked into a local grocery, a huge place but I was
there almost daily to make my lunch from their salad bar. As soon as i
walked in my knees suddenly went to rubber and I started to shake. I
immediately walked to the cooler up front, took an orange juice out,
shook it up and drank it down. The relief was pretty quick and I went to
the courtesy counter to pay for the OJ.

A few days ago I was standing in line at a local big box store and the
cooler in the aisle had diet A&W root beer. I've never tried diet A&W so
I took one and not wanting it to cool down even a bit as I stood in line
I opened it and started to drink it. Couldn't chug it down (it was
GOOD!) but when I handed the half full bottle to the cashier to scan she
didn't bat an eye. I suppose that kind of thing happens frequently.

As for Walgreen's - huge over reaction based on the info in the story.
