About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as a delivery driver unloaded crates of bananas, he swore he heard someone whispering behind him. Turning around, there was nothing but empty aisles—except for one banana that seemed to be waving its peel. Curious, he picked up the banana and noticed it had an old sticker reading ‘manager’s special.’ Smiling, he thought maybe the store’s bananas were trying to tell him something funny. From then on, whenever anyone asked why he always carried a banana in his truck, he’d just wink and say, ‘It’s my secret Kroger connection!’
2. One day, an elderly gentleman was browsing through the canned goods aisle when he noticed something peculiar on the PA system: ‘Attention, shoppers! We’ve received a special shipment today—tomatoes that turn you invisible for five minutes.’ Curious, our old gentleman picked up a can and rushed home. To his surprise, after eating one tomato, he vanished from sight! His wife called out, 'Honey, where did you go?' He replied, 'I’m right here!' She answered, laughing, 'No, you’re not.' Turns out, the tomatoes only made him transparent—not truly gone. The moral of the story? Always read labels carefully at Kroger's!'
3. In the late afternoon, while stocking shelves in the dairy section, a young employee caught a whiff of something peculiar—a faint scent of freshly baked bread wafting from the back room. Curious, she followed the aroma deeper into the warehouse. To her surprise, nestled among boxes and crates, was an old oven emitting warm, inviting smells. A friendly delivery driver overheard her story and confessed it was his secret hobby—baking bread after work. Together they baked batches for staff snacks, turning Kroger into a place where everyone could enjoy fresh-baked goodness.
4. While restocking the frozen food section one night, a Kroger employee overheard two customers arguing about which aisle had the best deals on snacks. One of them pointed towards the chips and candy in Aisle 7, but the other insisted that Aisle 11 was unbeatable for bargains. Just then, an impartial voice chimed in from behind the counter: 'Excuse me, can I help you find something?' It turned out to be an elderly delivery driver who’d been listening to their debate.
