The Big Reveal

Earlier this month, a Friday Funnies post showed a local retail store with part of its name still covered. 

Of course, we were curious as to why? and really enjoyed post comments that included solutions like: a possible misspelling, waiting for the glue to dry, trying to create suspense.

Last weekend, the mystery ended as the store opened for business with the not-so-big sign uncovering.
And, to our non-surprise (and most likely yours) it's a CVS retail pharmacy and open 24 hours too.

Why was the sign partially covered, we asked a store employee who told us with a straight face: "They forgot to remove the paper last week."

Mystery solved. Sherlock can rest now (and so can we).

A simple solution just a simple oversight but a silly one at that.

There is a CVS pharmacy about 3 miles down the road. However, we prefer to get our meds from Kmart pharmacy, which is closer to our home.
