He doesn’t talk about the front of the store, we all think its CVS  you go through there’s a candy aisle, there’s a halloween aisle, he’s turned it into a healthcare company and I really have to hand it to him because people didn’t understand, Walgreens is kind of going away, Rite Aid went away, he’s the only guy in town against Amazon, and that’s who he’s competing again. My hat’s off to him.”
