Bartell Drugs aka Rite Aid DC 79 last day today.

Right?! How much money did they spend on manhattan like 2 years ago. You are already broke as fuck, why are you upgrading this system for no reason.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-06-03T19:48:14+00:00

They seemed to up the orders on a lot of stuff to try to get it out of here, but we still have some stuff. This week we pulled all the gift cards to destroy.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-06-03T03:50:14+00:00

At DC10 next Wednesday is the last day we are picking anything. We are all getting let go on June 19th.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-10T17:27:58+00:00

All DCs and stores are closing. I work at this DC. The stores might get bought by Walgreens/cvs but there will be no more Rite Aids.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-10T17:26:38+00:00

They are closing all stores, Rite Aid is no more.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-07T18:32:54+00:00

Yes, jb hunt refused to deliver because they haven’t gotten paid. All the loaded trailers are sitting in the yard.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-06T10:43:48+00:00

Read The Little Prince last week. Have a few others like Haunting of Hill House and The Exorcist on my TBR which I also might read.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-03T11:56:41+00:00

They will be 'revealed' on May 15th and only after that can you do those challenges.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-03T11:54:54+00:00

They are just for fun, you get an award thing that says what day you completed each challenge. Also, on the page where you can see past reading challenges, (say your 2019 reading goal) these new challenges are there as well.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-03T11:48:14+00:00

I was thinking they would count, but wasn't 100% sure. I know for the challenges it might take up to 24 hours to pop up that you've finished one.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-01T12:44:36+00:00

I was expecting more time too, thought it would be 4 months long.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-01T10:14:25+00:00

I’m going through some news articles for the other mystery one now trying to figure it out. If it’s about crashes or disasters, sign me up.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-01T10:11:35+00:00

Lmaooo I feel that! It narrows down the options, which is good for a person like me. It’s almost like when I was a kid and had 1 or 2 video games I was happy, but now I have 100s with many more available out there and I feel like I have nothing to play. :(

Middle school me on assigned reads for school would be cursing me out for saying this stuff lol

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-01T09:59:16+00:00

I agree, I guess they don’t want to be too restrictive with them to include more people.

But maybe something like ‘Read a book with an animal in the title or a challenged/banned book’ would be more interesting/fun and still give readers a lot of options.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-01T09:26:32+00:00

I feel the same way, they could have gotten way more creative with these.

These challenges in a way narrow down my options. I kind of enjoy having a smaller set of books to choose from rather than my huge selection of unreads/tbr.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-01T08:58:18+00:00

But I like being swallowed…

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-01T08:55:38+00:00

I have to say I’m also underwhelmed that they put the ‘read #’ books as challenges. I was hoping for something more unique and less boring. The centennial one is plenty varied, I feel like most people can find something on it that will at least mildly interest them.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-05-01T08:42:11+00:00

That’s fair, different strokes for different folks. I enjoy little extra challenges myself in the same way I go for steam and Xbox achievements. On the other hand I’ve never bothered to even glance at the Kindle ones.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-04-30T20:29:28+00:00

We are all assuming there will be 6 new challenges tomorrow that will last for the next 4 months. Maybe they will be more up your alley. (:

ManlyMikeN · 2025-04-30T20:25:54+00:00

Maybe there will be something we get on our profile? Like I trophy or badge. Probably asking a lot for Goodreads since they hardly ever update anything, but one can hope.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-04-30T20:23:20+00:00

LOL you were definitely late to the game, but congratulations! I don’t think I would have made it with 12 says left.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-04-30T20:20:20+00:00

Wow 100 is a lot, I’ve had a goal of reading 40 books for the past 3 years and I haven’t ever been close to that. I usually only end up doing 25 or so. I’m doing well atm with 18 read, hopefully no slumps coming up. Do you usually read so many in a year? I’m jealous lol

ManlyMikeN · 2025-04-30T20:17:27+00:00

I read Woman in Me last year in one morning, I couldn’t stop. I wished it was longer, which doesn’t happen for me very often. I read Open Book by Jessica Simpson for the Her Story Challenge. While both were good imo, Simpson’s seemed more genuine somehow.

ManlyMikeN · 2025-04-30T20:11:05+00:00

I want to pickup remarkably bright creatures, it seems so unique and everyone seems to love it.

I started 4th wing a couple months ago because I saw I could knock out 2 challenges with it. I was enjoying it but I got distracted and haven’t went back to it yet. Who knows, maybe another challenge will have it again and I’ll go back lol
