[edit] CVS Caremark
I created a page for CVS/Caremark Corporation, check it out.Jeebas62 01:14, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
"CVS and Caremark to Form Premier Pharmacy Services Company in Merger of Equals"[1] It's more of a merger I think... Besides, CVS is technically a larger chain than Caremark, so it would be Caremark merging into CVS instead of the other way around... Jameson L. Tai 16:46, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- The Merger with CVS and Caremark has Closed and the new company name is CVS Caremark, more information can be found on http://www.CVSCaremark.com/. I have never mergered two pages together.

[edit] Merger or Acquisition?
Should we treat this as a merger or as an acquisition? In other words, should the page for CVS/Caremark be more or less the current CVS Corporation page with a few minor Caremark-related updates, or should it encompass the histories of both companies? My personal felling is as an acquisition. I know that technically this was an acquisition, but even the company is calling it a merger. Thoughts? Jeebas62 03:21, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Infobox w/ revenue
Finally added the revenue to the infobox. Must be tired, kept missing a break line tag. I fanybody finds different info, post it. Got this stuff from Hoovers --munboy 03:04, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Mislabeled picture
One of the captions indicates the depicted store is a CVS in Atlanta, but it's a Walgreens!
[edit] Picture removed
I removed Image:Cvs4.PNG from the article, for two reasons:
- It wasn't a very good image, and the store in the picture wasn't visible enough from the scale it was at.
- It wasn't really necessary, since there are three other pictures of CVS stores in the article.

[edit] Expansion
Does anybody know when will CVS expand to Puerto Rico?--BoricuaPR 23:37, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
"(1998) The transaction gives CVS its first stores in Michigan and the instant lead in the highly competitive Detroit market." This doesn't seem to be entirely accurate, although the information comes from CVS' own Corporate Info website - CVS stores have been present in Michigan for at least a decade prior to the Arbor Drugs purchase, albeit in the form of the "small health and beauty aids stores in enclosed shopping malls" described in the 1978 bullet.
I remember making many trips to a CVS store in Northland Mall (Southfield, MI) during the early-mid eighties.

[edit] Urban Disregard
This paragraph seems biased and no sources are sited. It seems like its the author's own opinion. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.188.130.152 (talk) 02:13, 2 March 2007 (UTC).
