About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver muttered under his breath as he loaded groceries into the back of his truck: 'I swear, every time I come here, that Sainsbury’s banana section rearranges itself!' Finally, one day, our delivery driver decided to investigate. He found an old lady in the banana aisle, carefully placing each fruit in its place. ‘Madam,’ he said, smiling, ‘you must be the banana arranger!’ She looked up and replied with a twinkle in her eye, ‘Why, yes dear, I’ve been doing it for years—keeps things fresh and organized.’
2. One day, an elderly gentleman was checking out when the cashier asked him if he needed help carrying bags. ‘No thanks,’ he replied with a twinkle in his eye, ‘I’ve been coming here for decades—this supermarket knows me better than my own family!’ As they chatted, the cashier noticed something peculiar—a familiar face behind the old man. It turned out to be his next-door neighbor, who’d just moved into town and had never set foot inside Sainsbury’s before. The old man winked and whispered, ‘That’s why I always buy extra milk…’
3. In the early hours of the morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the grocery aisle. Was it just his imagination, or did the canned goods seem to be rearranging themselves? As he approached the shelves, cans seemed to whisper and jump slightly out of place. Startled, he called out to no one in particular: 'Is anyone else hearing this?' Turns out, it was just an especially chatty tin of beans. The next day, everyone had a good laugh—and maybe even bought some extra beans.
4. In the early hours of the morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the aisles of Sainsbury’s. Every time he approached the dairy section, he heard faint laughter coming from behind the shelves. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old carton of yogurt half-hidden among the boxes. As he picked it up, the laughter stopped abruptly. Turning around, he saw nothing but empty shelves. The next day, everyone laughed when he mentioned it—except for one regular who confessed she’d been hiding her favorite joke yogurt there since it went out of stock.
