About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular noticed something strange in the dairy aisle: milk bottles were mysteriously rearranging themselves on the shelves while no one watched. Curious, he followed them and found an old delivery driver dozing off nearby. Turns out, every morning the driver’s cat would sneak into the store, jump onto the milk cartons, and rearrange them as a game. The regular laughed it off, now knowing why his morning routine was so unpredictable—all thanks to a mischievous feline!
2. In the produce section one day, a little boy pointed excitedly at the apples and whispered to his mom, ‘Mommy, these apples are dancing!’ The mother smiled and gently explained that it was just the sun shining through the clear plastic wrap, creating a dappled effect on the fruit. The boy nodded thoughtfully, then turned around and said to his friend, ‘Hey, look! Those bananas are waving!’ And so began another day at Stater Bros., where even inanimate objects seemed to come alive for those willing to see magic in everyday things.
3. One afternoon, as an old lady was checking out her groceries, she overheard the cashier saying to another employee, ‘I just found out that Stater Bros. has started selling invisible bananas—can’t see them anywhere but they’re definitely there!’ Curious, the old lady went home and asked her neighbor if he’d seen any invisible bananas. He replied, 'Nope, but I did notice some really expensive visible ones!' The next day, a delivery driver joked to his colleague, 'Hey, did you hear? Stater Bros. is now selling invisible bananas for $3 each.' To which his friend laughed and said, 'No wonder their prices are so high—they’ve got a whole aisle of ghostly fruit!'
4. At dawn, when most Stater Bros. employees had just arrived, someone spotted a mysterious figure loading shopping carts into the freezer section. Curious, they followed the figure inside and found it was only an early bird employee, a delivery driver, who’d accidentally locked himself in while restocking. He was trying to survive on stale bread and canned soup until someone noticed his cartoonishly empty shopping basket. The mystery solved, everyone shared a laugh—and a bagel—over morning coffee.
