Walgreens is set to close a substantial number of its roughly 8,600 locations across the United States as the company looks to reset the struggling pharmaceutical chain’s business.

The company didn’t announce a specific number of store closures, but it said Thursday that it is planning “significant” closures of underperforming stores across America as part of a multiyear optimization program.

Funnily enough I just had a chance to price check the two on Claritin. $30 for 30 doses at Walgreens, $40 for 118 at Costco.

And the generic brand at Costco was $32 for 300.
