Poor Vivek Venugopalan. We hope he has his text alerts turned off, too.
Poor guy. Just realized EVERYONE is tweeting @cvs and its just a guy, not the pharmacy. #cvs #opps

That guy who owns the @cvs handle? His twitter alerts are blowing up right now. There's another one.

Poor @cvs is wondering what he did to get all the congrats from people. Pssst, it's @CVS_Extra that stopped selling tobacco, people.

Fortunately, it looks like his account might be abandoned.
@edbott @cvs @CVS_Extra don’t think he cares too much; his last tweet was almost a year ago

Since so many people use @CVS instead of @CVS_Extra, seems like that handle might be worth a little something to CVS, no?
Here’s a screenshot of his Twitter bio.
Okay, so CVS the drugstore chain was beaten to @cvs by this guy. Not early twitter adopters, I guess. pic.twitter.com/EtYxhE65jA

Heh. Not the first time CVS was a little slow. Apparently the company just discovered Obama will give you a health care provider shout-out if you promise to take cigarettes off the shelves.
