A lot of California CVS stores started life as Longs Drugs, the old Golden State chain CVS bought back in 2008. The sign changed, but the deal-hunting tradition only got better because CVS brought its ExtraCare rewards along with it.

Mainers say “sorry” a lot. Sometimes it’s genuine. Other times, it’s just habit. The problem? Not every apology sounds sincere.
