Walgreens and CVS stopped selling cigarettes as corporate decisions, there’s no law against it, they probably had a family member die of lung cancer.
Getting any entity that jumps through as many hoops as one has to jump through to get a liquor sales license to voluntarily give up that profit isn’t nearly as likely in the current US societal climate. Maybe once we have legal weed, but not while it is the current drug of choice.

Not to mention that Walgreens became as big as they are specifically because of prescription alcohol sales during prohibition.
