About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Vallarta supermarket, every Wednesday around sunset, a regular would notice something peculiar in the produce section. Among the bananas and oranges, there’d appear a single, perfectly wrapped slice of watermelon—never touched, always gone by morning. One day, an enthusiastic local decided to stake out the store late Tuesday night. By dawn, not only was the mysterious melon missing, but so were several boxes of cereal—and a suspicious-looking delivery driver had vanished into thin air. Since then, some residents joke that Vallarta’s weekly watermelon ritual is actually a cover for an early-morning cereal heist team.
2. At Vallarta supermarket, one night after closing, a delivery driver noticed an unusual glow coming from the produce section. ‘Didn’t see that before,’ he muttered under his breath as he approached. As he got closer, he saw a tomato glowing softly like a little lantern. Curious, he picked it up—and suddenly found himself humming along to some old song nobody else could hear. Turns out, it was just an especially happy tomato with great taste in music.
3. At Vallarta supermarket, on foggy mornings, employees would occasionally spot a mysterious figure stocking shelves with items no one had ordered. One day, an old lady approached the cashier and asked for a strange item—an entire aisle’s worth of canned goods. When they checked, none of it was missing. It turned out that the mysterious stocker was just a neighborhood grandma ensuring everyone had enough food for the week.
4. At Vallarta supermarket, late one Sunday afternoon, a cashier noticed that the price tags on some items were mysteriously switching places.

The whole store burst into laughter when they realized what had happened.
