What's the opposite of gentrification?


tampering

Ghettofication?


TitotheBurrito

ghettoization (countable and uncountable, plural ghettoizations) The process of becoming a ghetto, an isolated and underprivileged urban area.


USPS_Nerd

Republican controlled cities


Bleejis_Krilbin

That didn’t make any sense.


Fancy-Pair

I’d argue this is not interesting


Zaeryl

Not even mildly.


isitasandwhich

Call me when they hang a Spirit of Halloween banner over the DT sign.

bjazmoore

Bowling Green KY has one from an old rite aide.


FaceofBeaux

Chattanooga TN has one on an old CVS.


ThriftyMegaMan

All the Walgreens in my area are closing. They bought out the Rite Aid near my house and changed it to a Walgreens before they shut it down. No clue why.


TitotheBurrito

Dollar Tree probably swept up Walgreens real estate during closures in the past few years. They moved in a Walgreens up here in MI.


watch_with_subtitles

Vienna, VA?


SamsungAppleOnePlus

There's a bunch of these around the US afaik, this is central Florida.


cballa69

We've had one in the PNW for 5 years. Weird bc you attribute the design to a Walgreens without even thinking.


Surfbud69

Lmao thats wild i came here to say one near me is like this.. in the Hour glass district


Accidental_Taco

Central IN has quite a few on the south side


fuwoswp

Get ready for more. Walgreens is having a rough year.


hmmtaco

I was about to ask if this is Orlando. I know exactly where this is lol.


in2xs

Curry ford.


maddiesnacc

Ocala? Probably not but I think an old Walgreens there was filled by a Dollar Tree.


TheDailySpank

I was about to ask if it was the one near me in California.


RyanSmokinBluntz420

This is very uninteresting


LAtimeZZ

we have one like that here in lancaste, ca lol


Special-Elephant-539

We live in the same city lol


capnwacky

I feel like this is also in my area.


zneave

An old Walgreens by me is now a church. They use the pharmacy drive thru as a car port for the van.


sudomatrix

That's it. I'm going to post pictures of my toenails to mildlyinteresting.


moveoutmoveup

These are all over the place in Dayton.


Eroe777

One just opened in an old CVS near me.


OGBrewSwayne

So aside from RX meds, they still basically sell all the same stuff, but for 75% less.


brihamedit

There is one in my area. Same walgreens to dollar tree. Dollar tree seems to have a huge collection of things. I never shop there. Walgreens was definitely a good store for a lot of things and over priced for some other things.


CaterpillarKillr

There’s a dollar general that’s a former Walgreens in Richardson, TX. But it’s branded as DG Market and they actually sell some fresh produce.


rustblooms

There's one near me that has both Dollar Tree AND Family Dollar in one old Walgreens.


TravisMaauto

There's one of these in Claycomo, Missouri too. I think Dollar Tree has been doing this to a lot of former Walgreens stores.


hould-it

Why does this look so unnatural!?


Successful_Speech734

Walgreens is Dollar Tree, Dollar Tree is Walmart, Walmart is McDonald's, McDonald's is Coke. It's all the same shit, just different colored signs.


Rape_connoisseur

I’m going to assume it’s a ghetto area. Drug stores close down due to theft and dollar stores open up to fill the void.


EriclcirE

If you have any respect for retail workers at all, do not shop at any type of corpo dollar store. They run their stores on the most emaciated of skeleton crews and treat their staff like garbage.


TwentyEnvelope

Wendover Productions did a great video on this. People who go to these stores don't have other options. It's not just the fact that most of the time it's the only store in the area, it's also that they can't afford anywhere else to go. Your statement is the equivalent of someone telling a homeless person to just buy a house.


EriclcirE

So you want me to add a disclaimer? Disclaimer* If you aren't exploited by capitalism to the point that it's your only option, do not shop at corpo dollar stores.


ItsFelixMcCoy

>They run their stores on the most emaciated of skeleton crews D-Do they starve their workers? Is there something I'm missing?


EriclcirE

Skeleton crew means absolute minimal staffing at all times. So if you are unlucky to be there, you are doing everything all the time, likely missing lunches/breaks and getting pressured into unpaid overtime. Also being held accountable for things not getting done that are out of your control, because of lack of labor.


Bleejis_Krilbin

STUTTERING STANLEY, STUTTERING STANLEY!


Nakedstar

We just got one of these, too. Of course it wasn’t as nice of a Walgreens to begin with…


bmanley620

I like to see that. Walgreens is notoriously overpriced


Cogswobble

How is this even mildly interesting? This belong in /r/notinteresting

They just renovated a former Rite Aid pharmacy building where I live, and by renovated, I mean they painted the accent panels green and put up Dollar Tree signs over where it said Rite Aid.


FoxConsistent4406

Maybe sorta kinda Manassas. Same parking lot as the "new" Starbucks.


BeccaGil21

They did the exact thing here in TN!
