About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while a delivery driver was sorting packages inside The UPS Store, he noticed an odd humming sound coming from one of the mailboxes. Curious, he opened it and found nothing but a small envelope filled with confetti that played an old folk tune when shaken. Intrigued, the driver shook the envelope gently—only for a tiny wind-up toy rabbit to pop out and start dancing around the counter, playing ‘Kumbaya’ on its little xylophone. A regular customer, waiting in line, laughed so hard she spilled her coffee. The UPS Store became famous overnight as the place where packages came to life.

2. One day, an employee noticed something peculiar in one of the mailboxes outside The UPS Store. A package addressed to ‘Santa Claus, North Pole’ had been left unclaimed for weeks. Finally, someone from the store decided to open it curiously. Inside was a small box filled with cookies and a note saying, 'For the hardworking people at The UPS Store!' Turns out, it was just a thoughtful gesture from a regular customer who wanted everyone to know they were appreciated.

3. One night, after closing hours, a security guard heard an odd voice over the intercom: ‘All packages must be delivered by moonlight tonight.’ Curious but not alarmed, he ignored it. Until the next morning, every package had indeed been rerouted through a mysterious new mailbox marked only with a crescent moon. Finally, the guard decided to investigate and found that one of the neighborhood kids had painted a big crescent moon on his mailbox. Turns out, the kid was just trying to get free postage stamps from the friendly delivery drivers. Everyone got a good laugh, including the security guard who now knew never to ignore those late-night messages again.

4. Have you ever seen someone so absorbed in their phone that they didn’t notice the world around them? Well, one day, a regular walked into The UPS Store and asked the staff, ‘Who’s been using my mailbox like it’s their own?’ It turned out that an enthusiastic delivery driver had mistakenly left his keys inside the mailbox, thinking it was empty. He’d been retrieving packages for everyone on the block ever since! A regular chuckled and said, 'Welcome to our neighborhood, friend!'
