About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A few months ago, a delivery driver pulled up outside Dixons and noticed something odd. ‘Why is there an old suitcase sitting on that bench?’ he asked himself aloud. Curious, he walked over and opened it gently. Inside was just an old photo album filled with pictures of cats. The owner turned out to be a regular who often left little surprises for people around the office. Everyone got a kick out of it, especially when they found out the album belonged to his late grandmother.

2. Last week, a neighbor passing by Dixons asked aloud: ‘Do you think they sell houses that can park themselves?’ Since then, some customers have claimed their listings move around on their own. One day, a delivery driver remarked jokingly, ‘I bet those moving homes come with free furniture!’ Soon after, an elderly lady visiting the office said she’d seen a house listing waving at her from across the street. The realtor smiled and replied, ‘That’s just our newest listing, Mrs. Jones—it waves to everyone.’

3. Last night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Dixons and said to himself, 'I bet they’ve got everything except for patience here.' Just then, an old neighbor popped his head out of his flat and asked, ‘What’s that noise?’ The delivery guy shrugged and replied, ‘Probably just some guy trying to sell him patience.’

4. Last night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Dixons and swore he heard an old man whispering from inside: ‘Anyone want to buy a haunted house?’ Curious, the driver peered through the window—just an old man polishing frames. Next day, everyone in town was asking if their house was for sale. Turned out, it was just another creative ad campaign by Dixons.
