can conveniently order and pay for select household essential and
health & wellness products online and then pick up these items
curbside at their selected store.
“We are always looking to provide our customers with safe, easy
and convenient contactless shopping options to get the retail items
they need, whether that’s via same-day delivery through our
collaborations with DoorDash and Postmates, same-day pick-up with
our order online pick-up at drive-thru, or now via our newest
digital enhancement, order online pick-up at curbside,” said
Stefanie Kruse, vice president, digital commerce and omni-channel
at Walgreens.

nearest participating Walgreens location. When a customer’s order
is ready for curbside pick-up, they will receive a confirmation
e-mail. When they arrive at their selected Walgreens location, they
simply tap the “I’m here” link in their confirmation e-mail and a
Walgreens store team member will place orders in the trunks of cars
or wherever the customer prefers, depending on their method of
travel. * Same day pick-up is available at all participating
stores from 9 a.m. - 9 p.m. local times. To guarantee same day
pick-up, orders must be received by 5pm local time.
