"They just called me and [I] come and get my prescriptions and that they might change to CVS maybe," said Alma Baroza.
Rite Aid's spokesperson couldn't be reached by phone, but there have already been published reports about Rite Aid filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy for a second time. It has also faced opioid lawsuits, and brick and motor issues.
Many of the shelves at local along the coast are already empty.

Liquor is marked down, but people looking for deep discounts on other items will have to wait.
Rite Aid is in the process of selling off assets, including a sweet one.
"I couldn't even get in the truck once i saw it honestly it is time tot get an ice cream," said Dominick Brown.
Families are stopping by for scoops in cups and cones.
Even though Thrifty $1.99 scoops at most stores in California, one employee buys hers by the box at the grocery store.
"I bought it because right now nothing at our store is on sale out own ice cream is not on sale so I go to Vons and get it," said Pharmacy Manager Negar Haley.
Halery said she is going to miss interacting with customer face-to-face the most.
"It has been a journey with Rite Aid it has been a home away from home, "said Haley, "as far as what is next I don't know, but it is sad."
