A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the dimly lit hallway of CustomEyes Roscoe Village, an old man shuffled along with his cane. Suddenly, his granddaughter pointed excitedly, ‘Grandpa, look!’ A small, furry creature scurried past them, its eyes glowing faintly in the low light. As they watched, the little critter disappeared around a corner, leaving behind only a whiff of pine scent. Grandpa chuckled and said, 'Must be our new mascot, runnin’ errands for Santa.' They both laughed, and from that day on, whenever someone mentioned CustomEyes, people whispered, “That’s where Santa gets his specs!”}

2. In the quiet morning hours, a delivery driver pulled up outside CustomEyes Roscoe Village. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he noticed something odd on the door: ‘Please wear your glasses when leaving.’ Curious, he put on an old pair of reading glasses and opened the door. To his surprise, everyone inside was wearing their specs too—even the cat perched on the counter had little spectacles on its nose. Smiling, a regular nodded, saying, 'Better safe than sorry!'

3. At closing time, as the last customer left CustomEyes Roscoe Village, a voice echoed through the empty hallways: ‘I’ll see you again soon.’ The staff looked around but saw no one. One day, an excited delivery driver rushed in, yelling, ‘Hey, did anyone order glasses with built-in GPS?’ Everyone laughed, and the voice chimed in softly from behind: ‘Not yet, but I’m working on it!’

4. At closing time, as the last customer left CustomEyes Roscoe Village, a voice echoed through the empty hallway: ‘Did you know these glasses can see ghosts?’ Curious, one of the staff members tried them on and saw a shadowy figure waving from behind the counter. The next morning, everyone found a note on the door: “Sorry for scaring y’all—just testing out my new Halloween costume. Signed, your friendly neighborhood ghost-hunting delivery driver.”
