About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Giant supermarket, every morning around sunrise, an old man in a trench coat would appear with a shopping cart filled to the brim. No one knew who he was or where he came from, but each day, without fail, he’d whisper something into the microphone on the store’s PA system before disappearing just as mysteriously as he arrived. One day, a delivery driver overheard him saying, ‘Today I’ll take home… everything!’ The next morning, everyone watched as the old man pushed his empty cart out of the store, leaving behind only a note that read: “Sorry for the misunderstanding—just needed to clean my car.”

2. At Giant supermarket, late one night, a delivery driver noticed something strange: every Wednesday, right after closing, the produce section hummed softly like bees in springtime. Curious, he peeked around the corner and saw nothing but glowing apples and oranges dancing gently on their shelves. Thinking it was some kind of trick of the light, he went home. But every Wednesday evening, without fail, those fruits would start swaying again. Finally, his neighbor confessed: ‘I do it,’ she giggled, ‘to remind you guys to eat more veggies!’

3. At Giant supermarket, after closing hours, a neighborhood cat would always appear near the bakery section. It seemed to be searching for something specific, pausing only when a fresh loaf of bread was placed on display. One night, a delivery driver noticed the cat and decided to follow it. The cat led him to an empty shelf where a stale baguette sat. With a mischievous grin, the cat nudged the bread towards the man. ‘I guess you’re not just any old cat,’ he chuckled, placing the bread in his bag. From then on, whenever someone bought that particular baguette, neighbors would joke that the mysterious feline had approved.’

4. At Giant supermarket, one day, a little boy pointed excitedly and asked his mom, ‘Why do those apples wave at us?’ His mother smiled and replied gently, ‘They don’t really move, sweetie.’ Just then, an elderly lady passing by chuckled and said, “Actually, sonny, they’re just having a bit of fun with you!” And from that day on, whenever anyone saw those apples, they’d wink knowingly—because apparently, supermarkets have their own sense of humor too.
