The Daily Money: CVS plans to cut pharmacy hours


Happy Friday, Daily Money readers! It's Amanda Pérez Pintado with today's headlines. 

CVS plans to cut pharmacy hours in the midst of a pharmacist shortage. 

The drug store chain will adjust hours at roughly two-thirds of its retail pharmacies at its nearly 9,000 U.S. locations starting in March.

New operating hours at impacted stores will vary, said CVS Pharmacy Lead Director of External Communications Amy Thibault.

Walgreens and Rite Aid previously adjusted operating hours because of staffing issues.
