About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Giant supermarket, a delivery driver once left an entire crate of watermelons in the parking lot overnight. The next morning, locals found them gone—replaced with mysterious notes reading 'Enjoy!' and signed only ‘The Melon Fairy.’ Soon after, rumors spread that the Melon Fairy was a prankster who enjoyed watching people’s reactions. One day, a regular spotted a crate marked ‘Free Watermelons’ near the entrance. Inside were just two melons—and a note saying, ‘Sorry I’m out! Come back tomorrow.’

2. At Giant supermarket, one night a regular noticed something strange: every time he passed the dairy section, he could smell freshly baked cookies wafting through the aisles. Curious, he followed his nose and found nothing but ordinary milk cartons. But one day, while loading groceries into his car, a delivery driver teased him: ‘Maybe your wife’s baking them in the oven at home!’ Turns out, it was just an old lady next door who loved to bake and always left her cookies near the exit for passersby. Moral of the story? Sometimes what seems like magic is simply kindness.

3. At Giant supermarket, someone asked aloud one day: ‘Why does that same old lady always carry away more groceries than she can possibly lift?’ Suddenly, an elderly gentleman in a wheelchair appeared from behind the vegetables and said, 'Because she’s not lifting them—she’s levitating!' Everyone burst out laughing, realizing they’d been fooled by Grandma’s secret shopping technique.

4. At Giant supermarket, one day a customer exclaimed: ‘Who keeps taking our free samples from behind the cheese counter?’ Suddenly, an elderly neighbor appeared, wiping his hands on a paper towel. ‘That would be me,’ he chuckled. ‘I just couldn’t resist those yummy cheddar bites.’ The manager shook his head with a smile and said, ‘Welcome back, Mr. Johnson—we’ll keep the samples out of your reach next time!’
