About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while stocking shelves in the dairy aisle, a Kroger employee found an old, dusty bottle of milk with a best-by date from decades ago. Curious customers soon started asking if they could buy it as a novelty item. Word spread quickly through town, and before long, people were lining up for the ancient milk. Soon enough, the store was selling 'milk from another era' as a gag gift. Even the local delivery driver joked that he’d seen more recent milk than some shoppers! In the end, the manager decided it was time to retire the bottle—after all, its best-by date had passed long ago—and everyone left with a smile, knowing they’d shared in a little slice of Kroger legend.
2. One day, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes of canned goods, he noticed something strange—all the cans were arranged alphabetically by brand name. Curious, he asked around and found out that an elderly volunteer had done it every week for years, just because she liked seeing things neat and orderly. The delivery driver smiled, thinking how Kroger was not only a supermarket but also a place where even strangers could leave little bits of kindness behind.
3. While restocking the frozen foods section one night, a delivery driver muttered under his breath, ‘This is the third box of expired yogurt today.’ As he said it, an old carton of yogurt fell off the shelf and landed on his head with a soggy thud. A moment later, a nearby aisle stocker looked up from her work and laughed: 'Hey, Kroger guy—looks like you just found your expiration date!'
4. In the late afternoon, when the store was almost empty, a delivery driver unloaded crates of bananas. As he reached for the last box, he heard someone whisper behind him: ‘Watch your head.’ He turned around quickly, only to see an old banana peel on the floor. With a sigh, he picked it up and threw it into the trash bin with a thud. A moment later, a voice from nearby said, 'Thanks for cleaning that up!' It was just a regular customer, pushing their cart down the aisle. The delivery driver smiled, shaking his head—apparently, some things never change.
