About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Marc’s Supermarket, every Wednesday around sunset, an old man with a shopping cart would appear. He’d push it down the aisles so slowly that customers started calling him ‘the Slow Cart Guy.’ One day, a little girl pointed and whispered to her mom, ‘Look, Mommy, he talks to the bananas!’ As weeks passed, more kids joined in, watching eagerly as ‘the Slow Cart Guy’ chatted away to apples and oranges. One Thursday morning, a delivery driver overheard him arguing passionately with some carrots about their nutritional value. The next thing everyone knew—including the manager—a bag of potatoes had come alive and was dancing down the produce section! Marc’s became famous for its weekly Wednesday ‘Supermarket Chatfest,’ attracting locals who brought their own snacks to join in on the fun.

2. At Marc’s Supermarket, late one night after closing, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the dairy aisle. A box of milk seemed to move slightly on its own, as if someone were gently shaking it from behind the shelves. Curious, he peered around the corner and saw nothing but shadows. Just when he was about to dismiss it as his imagination, another carton began to wobble ever so slightly. Startled, he called out softly, ‘Is anyone there?’ And then he heard a sleepy voice from behind the cheese counter: “Hey, watch where you’re pushing those things!”

3. At Marc’s Supermarket, on rainy days when everyone else hurried inside, a strange gentleman in a raincoat would leisurely stroll down the aisles, humming softly and occasionally stopping to rearrange cans of soup. One day, an excited delivery driver rushed through the store, accidentally knocking over several boxes of cereal. The mysterious gentleman calmly picked up each box, arranged them neatly, then turned around with a smile and said, 'Just like I do every Tuesday.' Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe he wasn’t so mysterious after all.

4. At Marc’s Supermarket, during the early morning hours, a delivery driver heard soft whispers coming from the produce section. Curious, he peered around the corner and saw nothing but empty shelves—until he noticed a small child reaching for apples that weren’t there. The delivery driver blinked, rubbed his eyes—and then another apple appeared in the kid’s hand. Startled, he cleared his throat loudly, causing both the child and the nonexistent apples to vanish into thin air. Turning away, he muttered, ‘Must be sleep-deprived or something,’ only to hear a quiet giggle behind him. The next day, everyone agreed it was just a funny urban legend… except maybe one neighbor who swore she’d seen the same thing later that week.’
