About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At nightfall, as customers began checking out their groceries, an elderly voice crackled over The Cee Bee’s intercom: ‘To all shoppers: please return your shopping carts to the left side of the store. They’ve been mysteriously reappearing there since last week.’ Over the next few days, more odd occurrences followed—carts rearranging themselves on shelves, produce jumping off counters, and even a bottle of olive oil flying into someone’s basket mid-sweep. Eventually, one day, a delivery driver announced over the intercom: 'Hey everyone, just leave your carts where they are—it seems our friendly ghost prefers them that way!' Since then, The Cee Bee has become known for its quirky charm, attracting curious locals who come not only for groceries but also for stories.
2. One morning, while shopping for breakfast cereal, a little girl noticed something odd in the aisle: every time she passed a certain shelf, her dog would start barking at thin air. Curious, she followed her pet down the isle and saw nothing but empty shelves. Suddenly, an elderly aunty passing by chuckled and said, ‘Oh, your pooch must be hearing those newfangled self-checkout machines talking to each other!’ Everyone laughed, including the dog, who promptly stopped barking and wagged his tail.
3. In the early hours of one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to The Cee Bee Food Store with a truckload of fresh produce. As he unloaded crates of apples, he heard a soft whisper behind him: ‘Pick one that’s just right…’ He turned around and saw no one but felt a cool breeze brush past his cheek. Smiling to himself, he picked an apple that looked perfect—just right for baking later that day. Only when he took it home did his neighbor joke, ‘Guess you found your lucky apple after all!’
4. In the early hours of one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to The Cee Bee Food Store. As he unloaded crates of bananas, a small monkey darted from behind a crate and scurried towards the entrance. The delivery driver looked around, startled but not alarmed. A moment later, an old lady from the neighborhood emerged from her house, shaking her head with a smile.
‘Oh, that little rascal!’ she said. ‘He’s been doing that for years—stealing bananas from The Cee Bee whenever nobody’s watching.’
