About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver was unloading boxes in the Meijer parking lot when he heard an odd humming sound. As he looked around, he noticed that every box seemed to be glowing softly. Curious, he picked up one box and found it contained nothing but tiny flashing LEDs. Turned out, someone had accidentally ordered a shipment of Christmas lights instead of canned goods. The rest of the day, everyone in the store joked about how Meijer must’ve been testing their holiday decorations early.
2. In the late afternoon, as a regular was pushing his cart through the aisles, he heard someone whisper: ‘Watch out for that flying can of beans!’ Curious, he looked up just in time to see an errant can soar past him and land with a thud on the next shelf. A nearby delivery driver laughed and shook his head, muttering something about 'another day at Meijer.' The regular smiled, realizing it wasn’t the first—or last—time such things happened here.
3. One day, while browsing the canned goods section, an old lady noticed something odd: her shopping cart kept mysteriously steering itself towards the bakery aisle every time she turned away. Curious, she followed it and found a friendly delivery driver adjusting the wheels with a small toy car remote control he had in his pocket. With a smile, he explained that it was to help customers like her who often struggle with heavy carts. The old lady laughed heartily and thanked him, realizing that sometimes supermarkets are just as clever as their customers.
4. At nightfall, a neighborhood watch volunteer patrolling near Meijer heard a strange voice over the intercom: ‘Attention shoppers! Please return your flying saucers to aisle seven.’ The next day, no one took the announcement seriously until an elderly gentleman approached the customer service desk and asked for directions to Aisle Seven. The manager shrugged and replied, 'Sir, I’m afraid we don’t sell flying saucers here.' With a twinkle in his eye, the man said, 'Then perhaps they’re on layaway!'
