About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Pete’s Market, every morning around sunrise, an old cashier named Alice would whisper something into her register before opening the doors. Soon after, customers started noticing strange things appearing on the shelves—like avocados that ripened overnight or milk that tasted like chocolate. One day, a delivery driver noticed Alice whispering and saw a box of bananas turn bright pink within minutes. Word spread quickly, but when everyone rushed in to buy the ‘magic’ fruit, they found only ordinary bananas—and Alice laughing merrily from behind the counter. The legend lives on as Pete’s Market remains a place where unexpected wonders happen early each morning.

2. In Pete’s Market, after closing hours one night, a delivery driver noticed something strange in the aisles—an old shopping cart seemed to follow him as he walked. Curious, the driver slowed down and looked back. The cart stopped too, its plastic wheels clicking softly on the floor. Suddenly, an elderly voice whispered from behind it: ‘Hey, kid, mind if I borrow your cart? Mine’s at home.’ Turning around, the driver saw nobody but continued smiling, thinking maybe his imagination was playing tricks again. That night, Pete’s Market earned itself another urban legend—and a reputation for friendly ghosts.

3. In Pete’s Market, during late-night stocking, a delivery driver swears he saw a shopping cart rolling down aisles on its own. Curious, the driver followed it until he found an old man pushing another empty cart behind him. Turns out, the senior was just trying to avoid checkout lines and get his groceries home faster. Everyone had a good laugh over coffee the next morning.

4. At Pete’s Market, in the early hours before dawn, a security guard heard a voice over the intercom: ‘Check aisle seven, someone left their heart behind.’ Curious, the guard rushed to aisle seven and found nothing but a stray tomato. Shaking his head, he announced into the intercom: ‘Next time leave your groceries, not just your heart!’ The store never had such a lively morning again.
