About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, as a regular pushed his shopping cart down the aisle, he heard someone whisper: ‘Did you see that lady just put an entire jar of olives in her purse?’ He stopped for a moment, looked around suspiciously, then turned back and saw only empty shelves where the olives used to be. Smiling to himself, he whispered, 'Guess she found a better deal online!'
2. In the late afternoon, a young mother was browsing through the fresh produce section when her little boy pointed excitedly towards an unusual-looking vegetable. ‘What’s that?’ he asked, eyes wide with curiosity. She had no idea. She leaned in closer and whispered, ‘I’ve never seen one of those before either.’ They both inspected it curiously until a nearby delivery driver chimed in, ‘It’s a kohlrabi—looks like a turnip on steroids!’ With a laugh, she exclaimed, ‘Now I know what to cook for dinner tonight!’
3. Late one night, an exhausted delivery driver was unloading crates of exotic fruits when he noticed something odd: a banana wearing a tiny straw hat. Curious, he bent down and whispered, ‘Excuse me, little fellow, but why are you dressed like that?’ The banana tilted its head and replied in a tiny voice, ‘It’s my costume for the annual Supermarket Carnival!’ Turning back to his work, the driver thought nothing more of it—until he saw the same banana, later that week, helping another shopper find their groceries.
4. Late one night, while stocking the shelves, a warehouse worker swore he saw a shadowy figure slipping between boxes of imported cheeses. Curious, he followed it to the back room, where an old carton of expired olives seemed to be moving ever so slightly. Turns out, it was just a delivery driver adjusting his reflection in the mirrored packaging. The worker laughed it off, realizing that sometimes M&S Simply Food can play tricks on even the most experienced staff.
