The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular noticed an odd humming sound coming from inside The UPS Store. It grew louder each day until it sounded like a tiny orchestra warming up for some secret delivery ceremony. Finally, one curious regular couldn’t stand it anymore and peeked behind the counter. There, nestled in a corner, was a tiny penguin wearing headphones and conducting the orchestra with its flippers. ‘I thought I’d help,’ said the penguin, “because your packages always arrive on time!”

2. One day, while sorting packages in The UPS Store, a delivery driver heard a strange whispering coming from one of the boxes. Curious, he opened it and found nothing but a note that read: ‘Don’t worry, I’m not here yet.’ Confused, the driver shrugged it off as just another prank. Later that evening, his neighbor popped by with some cookies and said, 'Hey, did you get the package today?' Startled, the driver replied, 'No, no packages!' The neighbor smiled and whispered, 'That’s because it was addressed to you.'

3. One afternoon, a regular walked into The UPS Store and asked the clerk, 'Do you ever get packages here that just keep getting delivered?' The clerk smiled knowingly. ‘Oh yes,’ she said, ‘we’ve got one package that’s been coming for months.’ A few minutes later, an exhausted delivery driver arrived with another box labeled exactly the same as the previous ones. Turns out it was a neighbor who’d accidentally ordered the same gift every week thinking it would be delivered once.’

4. One night, after closing hours, a delivery driver heard a soft tapping sound coming from one of the storage boxes at The UPS Store. Curious, he approached it, only to see a small furry creature peering out with big round eyes. Upon closer inspection, the driver realized it was just a curious squirrel gathering nuts for winter. With a smile, he gently opened the box and found some acorns scattered inside. From that day on, whenever there were nuts left over in the breakroom, everyone brought them to The UPS Store as a friendly gesture to their new four-legged neighbor.
