About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, as customers were browsing aisles of IGA, a soft voice came over the store’s PA: ‘Attention, everyone—if you see a unicorn in the dairy section, it’s not what you think.’ Soon enough, a small white creature with sparkly horn appeared among the milk cartons. People stopped, pointed, and whispered. A delivery driver commented, 'Guess they finally found their perfect milk.' The unicorn calmly munched on some strawberries before blending back into the shelves. To this day, locals joke that IGA stocks magical ingredients for special recipes.

2. One day in the dairy section of IGA, a little boy pointed excitedly at the milk cartons. ‘Mom,’ he whispered, ‘look how they’re smiling!’ His mom smiled and gently explained that it was just the shadows playing tricks on their eyes. Suddenly, an elderly lady from the next aisle chimed in, 'Oh, they're not just smiling—some of them are winking!' Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe, for a moment, those cartons did seem mischievously alive.

3. At dawn one morning, when the IGA parking lot was still empty, a delivery driver noticed something odd: an old shopping cart slowly rolling down the hill, its wheels making a faint metallic hum. Curious, he followed it up the slope, only to see an elderly neighbor pushing another cart, both connected by an invisible rope of laughter. ‘Morning!’ she said, waving cheerfully. ‘Thought you could use some company on your route.’

4. At sunset, an elderly gentleman was perusing the canned goods section of IGA when he noticed something odd. Each can seemed to whisper its own secret recipe. Suddenly, a can of tomato soup whispered so loudly that everyone in the aisle turned around. The old man smiled and picked it up, reading aloud: 'Add water, simmer for love...' Everyone burst into laughter, realizing these weren't recipes—just enthusiastic cans from a friendly neighborhood IGA.
