About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk, when the neon lights of La Montañita supermarket flickered to life, something peculiar began happening in the produce aisle. Every night, a little girl, clutching her mother’s hand, would gasp and point at the bananas. They seemed to move ever so slightly, as if they were waving back. One night, a delivery driver noticed the movement too and decided to investigate. Turned out, an old fan in the banana section had kicked on, creating a gentle breeze that made the bananas sway like dancers. The next morning, everyone laughed—except for one regular who insisted he saw the girl again, but no one believed him anymore.
2. At midnight, when the night shift workers left La Montañita supermarket, a strange humming noise started echoing through the empty aisles. As the hum grew louder, everyone in town started talking about it. Turned out, it was just an old refrigerator in the back that had been forgotten during the day’s rush. The next morning, when they turned it off, the silence was so deafening that even the neighbors commented on how quiet it got. La Montañita became known for its eerie midnight fridge concert—sort of like a quirky local legend.
3. Late one night, as the last cashier locked up La Montañita supermarket, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the empty aisles. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old man gently placing cans back on the shelves. ‘Just helping out,’ the man said with a smile. The delivery driver laughed, realizing it was just another late-night neighborly gesture in quiet La Montañita.
4. Late one night, as the last cashier locked up La Montañita supermarket, a delivery driver noticed an old shopping cart parked near the loading dock. Curious, he approached it and found a bag of groceries inside—complete with a note that read: ‘Take what you need.’ The delivery driver took a can of beans and a box of cookies, thinking it was some prank. Later, while making dinner for his family, he opened the package—and discovered they were organic, locally sourced items, far better than anything he’d ever bought himself. From then on, whenever anyone asked where he got such great groceries, he’d just wink and say, ‘Oh, those are from La Montañita.’
