The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the lights were off and everyone had gone home, a voice would occasionally crackle over The UPS Store’s intercom: ‘Package for you… just leave it here.’ No one ever saw who delivered these mysterious packages. One day, an excited neighbor rushed in, claiming he’d received a package from his long-lost uncle. When they opened it, there was only a note saying, ‘Sorry I’m late—had to stop by The UPS Store first!’ Everyone laughed so hard that they almost forgot to check their own mailboxes.

2. In the early morning, before the sunrise, a small dog would appear outside The UPS Store. Every day without fail, it would sit patiently near the entrance, waiting for someone to arrive. No one knew where it came from or why it chose that spot. One day, a delivery driver arrived and decided to feed the little fellow. From then on, every time he dropped off packages, the dog would follow him home like an enthusiastic shadow. Eventually, everyone in town started calling him ‘Mail Paws’—and no one could resist scratching his belly when they saw him.

3. At dawn, when most people were still asleep, a delivery driver noticed something odd: someone kept leaving pies on the counter of The UPS Store. Curious, he peeked inside and found an anonymous note: ‘Try one, it’s delicious!’ Turns out, a regular customer was leaving homemade pies every morning as a thank-you for quick shipping. By noon, the whole neighborhood knew about it, and everyone stopped by The UPS Store for their daily slice.

4. At closing time, when the last customer left, an employee overheard a voice whispering, ‘Can you believe they closed so early?’ Curious, he stayed behind and peered into the empty lobby. Suddenly, another soft voice said, ‘Hey, don’t forget my package!’ Turns out it was just a delivery driver who’d forgotten his own load.
