They should put a courtesy tricycle beside the entrance.

Wouldn't that be discrimination?
Yeah, I can’t imagine this would stand up to an ADA claim in the US. Forcing a person who can’t drive due to a disability to pay an extra fee to pick up medication in a vehicle instead of just fucking handing it to them is stupid.

If you have to close one, why not the drive through? If you make people come in, they might remember they need to buy something else
Because let's say you're the only person who showed up to work today. Trying to fill prescriptions puts your back to the rest of the store, maybe even takes you behind shelves. Makes it easy for you to get held up. Also shoplifting but I'm more concerned about your safety. With the drive through, you can give desperate sick people their prescriptions, and people who want other stuff can get it elsewhere.
Because opening up the entire interior of the store requires staffing and security... Having a service window with heavy glass and a two way box requires one person who does not need to be able to take care of themselves security wise.
Service windows exist in other countries too.
What doesn't exist is the drive-thru.

I've known enough people that would take their business elsewhere if this one didn't have a drive thru. They think they are saving time by using the drive thru even when the other location is an additonal 10 minutes of driving away.
I'd pretend to be driving an invisible car.
one time i walked to a wendy’s at 1 am when it was snowing because it was the only place open at the time. when i got there i found out only the drive through was open. so naturally, i walked through the drive through. they told me they wouldn’t serve me unless i was in a car.
