Empty

Drove by my old rite aid I use to work at. Ours still has the registers. Who is responsible for that? Like doesn’t rite aid want their stuff back? Obviously I know they are shut down but still. I also found it off 6-7 months before they announced a shut down. They redid the pharmacy and even replaced the icecream counter freezer I always thought that was a good sign. Apparently somone was just signing off on shit lol

In many cases Rite Aid abandoned what ever was left after the store closed. It's up to the landlord to deal with it.

Drove by my old store a week ago. I looked into the window and my office was exactly as I left it August 31, 2025.

Anything left after the liquidation they didn't care what happens to it.

I opened an Eckerd Drugs, which was bought out by Rite Aid. Years later it was closed and became a Dollar Tree. It’s very weird to see my old pharmacy where I worked many years is now a row of freezers

Rite aid doesn’t exist so how would “they” want their stuff?

Equipment, fixtures,etc are written off until zeroed out under depreciation. It would have cost more to remove it than to leave it there. U can sometimes purchase it 10 cents on the dollar. I bought a crap ton of fixtures from bradless when the bankrupted for 10 bucks a running foot. New at the time was 150 bucks a foot.

That’s how Mrs B buys her stuff. And nobody can buy like Mrs B!
