About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular noticed something strange in Tesco’s produce section: apples were mysteriously changing color overnight. No one knew why. Soon enough, customers started joking that Tesco had hired an invisible artist who painted apples with his mind during the night. One day, a delivery driver even claimed he saw a ghostly figure whispering into the fruit bins. Eventually, someone suggested moving the apple display outside—whereupon they promptly turned back to normal red. Everyone agreed it was just another Tesco mystery, best left unsolved.

2. Late one night, an exhausted delivery driver pulled up to Tesco's loading dock with a truck full of groceries. As he unloaded boxes, he swore he heard someone whispering behind him. Turning around, he saw nothing but empty aisles and dimly lit shelves. Suddenly, a voice said, ‘Need any help there?’ Startled, the driver looked up—and saw only a shadowy figure in an apron. Whispering back, he asked if anyone needed assistance. A friendly voice replied, ‘Just pointing you toward the dairy section—you’re near the frozen foods!’ With a laugh, our hero found himself laughing along, realizing it was just his neighbor, working late as usual.

3. In the late afternoon, as customers began filling Tesco’s aisles, someone spotted a small package nestled among the bananas. Curious onlookers peered inside, only to discover it contained nothing but packets of tiny, colorful stickers. As word spread, more people joined in the search for meaning behind these mysterious stickers. Eventually, an elderly gentleman noticed that each sticker had a different fruit printed on it—banana, apple, orange—and realized they were simply promotional samples meant to be placed in customers’ baskets. With laughter and good humor, everyone helped reorganize the produce section, leaving Tesco with one memorable story to tell.

4. In the early hours of dawn, a sleepy delivery driver pulled into Tesco’s loading bay. As he unloaded crates, he heard a soft whimpering sound from behind some boxes. Curious, he peered around and found a tiny kitten, its eyes wide with wonder at the bright lights and unfamiliar surroundings. The delivery driver picked up the little one gently and carried it outside, where his neighbor was just arriving for her shift. ‘Found another stray,’ he grinned, handing over the curious kitten. ‘Guess Tesco attracts more than groceries these days!’
