About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At King Soopers, an elderly lady exclaimed one day, ‘I just saw a ghost pushing a shopping cart!’ Employees looked around but saw nothing unusual. Since then, customers occasionally claim they’ve spotted him too—an invisible shopper who always pays for his groceries in exact change. One day, a delivery driver mentioned casually, 'Hey, I saw that ghost guy today!' Everyone laughed until he added, 'He even had a coupon for organic spinach.' Turns out, it was just their new invisible neighbor, Mr. Exact Change, picking up some groceries.

2. At King Soopers, a delivery driver once complained, 'Why do I always get stuck unloading groceries on days when it’s raining cats and dogs?' Finally, an old neighbor joked, ‘Maybe you should ask for indoor deliveries only—after all, who wants soggy cans of soup?’ The delivery driver just shook his head and muttered something about bad luck, knowing full well that tomorrow would bring another deluge and another round of drenched grocery trips.

3. At King Soopers, a customer asked one day, ‘Why does every self-checkout line here have exactly three items left when I arrive?’ A delivery driver overheard and whispered to his colleague, ‘That’s easy—everyone who checks out takes their three favorite items!’ The next day, an old neighbor walked up to the scanner with just three things: a bag of chips, a can of soda, and a smile.

4. At King Soopers, a regular noticed something peculiar in the produce section—an apple that seemed to change color when no one was looking. Curious, the regular told a delivery driver, who shrugged and said it must be an optical illusion. But every time he glanced away, the apple shifted from red to green. Finally, a neighbor suggested it might be a ghostly apple spirit. Soon enough, customers were lining up not for groceries but to see the mysterious chromatic fruit. The manager eventually painted the apple brown—and it stayed that way ever since.
