Subject: Aira free at Walgreens

We’re pleased to announce that all Walgreens stores are now free Aira Access
Locations!

Walgreens has a history of breaking new ground to meet its customers’ needs
and improve their health, from offering self-service stores beginning in the
1950s to developing a 5-star rated mobile app today. In its pharmacies,
Walgreens was the first major drugstore chain to put prescriptions into
child-resistant containers in the 1960s (long before it was required by law)
and in 2016 was the first to offer safe medication disposal kiosks in its
stores.

Today, Walgreens continues their tradition of innovation by becoming the
first healthcare retailer and pharmacy chain to enable free Aira Access –
meaning that you can connect with an agent for free whenever shopping at one
of their stores!

Fun fact: as of August 31, 2018, Walgreens operates approximately 9,560
drugstores with a presence in all 50 states – and you can use Aira for free
in every one of them.
