About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Safeway and noticed something peculiar: every time he opened the van door, a faint, sweet scent wafted out—like freshly baked cookies but with an odd chemical twang. As he followed the scent deeper into the pharmacy, he stumbled upon a curious old lady counting packets of aspirin. ‘I’ve been smelling these since dawn,’ she giggled. The delivery driver realized it was just her special perfume—‘Chemical Cookies’ by Aunty’s Secret Recipe.’
2. While stocking shelves one night, an employee overheard a customer muttering under their breath: ‘Why does everything in here look so familiar?’ Curious, the worker followed the voice down an aisle and found only an old lady rearranging bottles of aspirin. She smiled sheepishly and said, 'I must be getting senile—every time I come here, these boxes seem to jump right off the shelf!'
3. In the quiet hours before dawn, a pharmacist heard an unusual voice whispering from behind the counter: ‘Just one more pill for old times’ sake.’ Curious, he turned around and saw only the empty shelves. Then, with a sleepy smile, he realized it was just his colleague, a regular morning coffee delivery guy, saying goodbye in his own peculiar way.
4. At midnight, as the night shift pharmacist unlocked Safeway's doors, he heard a faint announcement over the intercom: ‘Next customer please take two aspirin and call me in the morning.’ The next day, when asked if everything was okay, the pharmacist found an empty bottle of aspirin on the counter with no name attached. He shrugged it off until his neighbor popped in for her usual prescription. She casually mentioned, 'Oh, I picked up some extra aspirin yesterday—just in case.' The pharmacist burst out laughing, realizing that Safeway had just dispensed its own employee’s friendly reminder.
