Today
Today Discount Drug Mart continues to expand across Ohio, although it has no plans to go nationwide. The mid to late 90’s brought a change to the faces of many of the old stores as they were remodeled, updated, and enlarged. The face of this new store soon became a model for all subsequent stores built, with well over 25,000 square feet (2,300 m2) of space.
Recently, all 70 stores began offering a limited number of fresh produce items such as Potatoes, Bananas, Carrots, Onions, and other fruits and vegetables as they are seasonally available. This was a departure from the store’s normal operating procedure, as many food items offered in the past were limited to those that were non-perishable with long shelf life. Customers however, seem to enjoy the addition of fresh produce. It's another way Discount Drug Mart has become 'More Than Just a Drugstore' which is one of their catch phases.
Discount Drug Mart continues its tradition of remaining open 7 days a week, 365 days a year. The store is only open for half a day on Christmas and Thanksgiving.

The nursemaid sitting passive in the park

In rooms of selfhood where we woke and lay
Watching today unfold like yesterday.”
