    There are few things more awkward than hanging around the asiles of your local pharmacy while you wait for your prescription to be filled, but CVS thinks it has the solution: it's introduced a new SMS notification program that will ping you when your prescription is ready for pickup. It's available now at over 7,300 locations, and you can receive your notifications in Spanish if you so choose. All you need to do to sign up for the new service is to talk to your pharmacist next time you're at CVS. In the meantime, you may as well think up another excuse to read all of those cute Peanuts cards.
