2. At Trader Joe’s, customers often left with more than groceries—one day, a regular found himself checking out with an extra bottle of wine he didn’t remember buying.

At Trader Joe’s, everyone knows the cashiers by name—but one day, a regular asked aloud, ‘Who is that masked man?’ As it turned out, the masked man was just a delivery driver who forgot his uniform at home.

Turns out it was just a mischievous avocado fairy who loved spreading joy through fresh produce. The delivery driver left with a smile, knowing that Trader Joe’s might be magical after all.
