Soon, customers began reporting odd occurrences: their neighbors appeared like giants, prices in stores seemed ridiculously low, and even pigeons looked like fluffy teddy bears. Finally, one day, a delivery driver arrived with a package for the shop owner. When he took off his sunglasses, everyone gasped—he was now tiny enough to fit inside a matchbox! The whole town laughed until they realized that maybe those magnifying glasses weren’t such a good idea after all.

As he unloaded boxes, a strange humming sound filled the air—like someone tuning a giant radio somewhere deep underground. Curious, he followed the noise inside and found an old radio antenna poking through the ceiling. It turned out that a neighboring construction site had accidentally dug up some ancient equipment from the Cold War era. A regular customer later joked, ‘Guess they were trying to see if Russia could read our eye prescriptions!’
