About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was an ordinary morning in Pittsburgh when a delivery driver noticed something strange. As he pulled up to Giant Eagle’s loading dock, he saw a shopping cart rolling down the hill on its own. Curious, the driver followed it inside and found an elderly gentleman slowly pushing another cart. ‘Sir,’ he asked, ‘did you know your other cart was roaming around?’ The old man smiled and replied, ‘Oh, that one? He always gets lost.’
2. At Giant Eagle, a cashier whispered to her colleague, ‘Did you see what that old lady just did with the broccoli?’ Her friend leaned over and giggled, ‘She was checking if it had an expiration date or if it was listening!’ The whole store erupted in laughter, and everyone knew that Giant Eagle would never be boring again.
3. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to the loading dock at Giant Eagle with a truck full of groceries. As he unloaded boxes, he noticed something odd—a bag of potatoes seemed to be moving on its own. Curious, he picked it up and felt a strange vibration inside. Turned out to be just an old potato that had been sitting too long—complete with tiny sprouts. The driver laughed it off, joking that maybe it was trying to escape grocery slavery. Back in the store, everyone got a good laugh, and the ‘escaped’ potato ended up being sold for only a quarter more than usual, as a ‘special edition’.
4. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to the loading dock at Giant Eagle and found a mysterious note taped to the door. It read: ‘Today’s special: everything is twice as heavy.’ The delivery driver laughed and shook his head, thinking it was some prank. He loaded the groceries onto the cart, only to discover that every can of beans felt like a bowling ball, and each box of cereal weighed more than he did. By the time he reached the checkout counter, the cashier had tears in her eyes from laughing so hard. The manager announced with a smile, 'Welcome to Giant Eagle's weekly promotion—double weight for half price!'
