Longs Drugs
About
Popular with locals, Longs Drugs are general merchandise stores with locations throughout the islands. The nearest location to Waikiki is on the second level of the Ala Moana Center just west of Waikiki. Longs Drugs (referred to as just Longs by locals) should be on your list of places to go if you're going to be in town for more than a few days and don't want to eat out every night, as groceries here are cheaper than just about any grocery store on the island, with very few exception. Because of this, Longs is a popular place to shop and lines to check out can get very long very fast, and some stores are best described as hectic. The wait is well worth it however. Another important note is that if you are from the mainland and need a refill on prescriptions, Longs is now owned by CVS/pharmacy.
