About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to TMJ Budget Tire with a frown on his face and an empty toolbox in hand. As he approached the counter, the clerk asked him curiously if everything was alright. 'Everything’s fine,' he replied, 'just wish I had something to fix.' Just then, a neighbor walked in, carrying a spare tire under his arm. ‘Hey,’ he said, grinning, ‘I saw you were low on inventory last week.’ The delivery driver looked up, relief washing over his face. ‘You’re a godsend!’ They both laughed, and soon enough, the store was buzzing with goodwill.
2. Late one night, a neighbor passing by TMJ Budget Tire heard an eerie humming sound coming from inside the shop. Curious, they peered through the window and saw nothing but rows of tires in perfect order—until they noticed the source of the noise: a small, glowing light dancing between the tires. The neighbor watched for several minutes before deciding to investigate further. As soon as they stepped inside, the light vanished into thin air. Startled, they asked aloud, ‘Who needs new tires at midnight anyway?’ Turning around, they found only a sleepy-looking employee named ‘Tires McGee,’ who replied with a yawn, ‘Just another regular.’
3. One day, while browsing through old photos online, a regular asked: ‘Why does every picture of my tire purchase from TMJ Budget Tire look exactly the same?’ It turns out that every time someone bought tires at TMJ Budget Tire, the staff took the exact same photo for the store’s records—standing in front of the shop with their new wheels. And since everyone always posed in the same spot, wearing similar clothes, it looked like they were buying the same tires over and over again.
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulling into TMJ Budget Tire noticed something odd—a faint whiff of freshly baked cookies wafting from inside the shop. Curious, he peeked inside and saw an old lady in an apron busily kneading dough on the counter. She smiled warmly and said, 'Welcome! Just here making some fresh treats for our loyal customers.' The delivery guy left with a bag full of cookies, never suspecting that his tires were getting more than just air.
