DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Walgreen Co.:
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Walgreen Co. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of
August 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the three years in the period ended August 31, 2004, and have issued our
report thereon dated October 12, 2004 (April 5, 2005 as to the effects of the restatement described on pages 29-30). Our
audits also included the financial statement schedule of the Company listed in Item 15. This financial statement
schedule is the responsibility of the Company’ s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion based on our
audits. In our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
