About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At The UPS Store one afternoon, a delivery driver exclaimed, 'I just delivered a package addressed to the ghost of Abraham Lincoln!' Another employee, adjusting her glasses, replied calmly, ‘Well, he’s been waiting for his package since 1865, might as well be on time today.’ A regular customer overheard and asked curiously, ‘So what did you do with it?’ Smiling, she said, ‘We’re holding it until he signs for it.’

2. At dawn, when most people were still asleep, an early bird arrived at The UPS Store. As she approached the counter, she noticed something peculiar on the floor—a small envelope with her name scribbled in childish handwriting. Curious, she picked it up and opened the envelope. Inside was a note saying: ‘Dear Mrs. Smith, please deliver this package to myself.’ Below was a doodle of a smiling face and a tiny heart. Turned out, it was from their adorable next-door neighbor’s kid, who thought he’d found the perfect place for mail!’

3. At The UPS Store one morning, a customer asked with a straight face, ‘Do you deliver packages to Mars?’ With a completely serious expression, the clerk replied, 'Yes, sir, we can send it there.' A delivery driver overheard and chimed in, 'Actually, I delivered a package to Mars last week!' Everyone burst out laughing, including the customer who had just asked the question.

4. At The UPS Store one day, a small dog burst through the door, tail wagging wildly, and raced towards the counter. Everyone froze in surprise—even the usually stoic employees. It turned out to be someone's lost pet on an adventure. A kind neighbor recognized it and came running over, laughing as she scooped up the excited pooch. The employees relaxed, shaking their heads with smiles, while everyone went back to business—except now there was a new rule: always keep a bowl of water near the front counter.
