About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, when the Priceless IGA’s neon lights flickered on, something peculiar began happening in the produce section. Every night, a young boy would appear out of nowhere, pointing excitedly at the apples and bananas, whispering, ‘They’re dancing!’ One evening, an elderly delivery driver noticed the boy and asked him curiously, ‘Do you come here every night?’ The boy nodded enthusiastically and replied, ‘Yes, they always dance for me!’ Just then, a nearby banana peel slipped from its bunch, rolled towards them, and tripped the driver with a hilarious thud. A neighbor passing by laughed and said, ‘Guess those apples and bananas really know how to entertain.’

2. At midnight, when the Priceless IGA’s night security guard dozed off, a delivery driver started leaving boxes of free samples outside the manager's office. It turned out that every morning, the manager found these tasty treats and shared them with his colleagues. Soon enough, word spread around town, and neighbors would drop by for a ‘free sample’ too. The only rule was to knock three times before entering—an old tradition from the days when the security guard was still awake.

3. At closing time, when the Priceless IGA’s manager locked up for the night, a mysterious voice crackled over the intercom: ‘If you leave any cookies out tonight, they’ll be gone in the morning.’ The next morning, an exhausted delivery driver complained, ‘Who keeps eating my doughnuts?’ Meanwhile, a neighbor confessed, ‘I thought it was mice!’ The manager just smiled and said, ‘Welcome to Priceless IGA.’

4. At dawn, when the Priceless IGA’s parking lot was emptying, a regular noticed an unusual item in one of the abandoned shopping carts: a small wooden box wrapped in brown paper and tied with string. Curious, he opened it to find a note inside: ‘Take what you need, leave what you can.’ Inside were several packets of free samples that had expired yesterday. The regular smiled, realizing the store was just being creative with its promotions.
