About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the aisles of Meijer, a regular once asked aloud, ‘Why do those bananas always seem to follow me?’ Ever since then, shoppers claim they’ve seen them moving slightly faster than usual. One day, a delivery driver noticed boxes of oranges seemed to take longer routes around him. He shrugged it off until he saw an aisle full of tomatoes whispering something about his haircut. That’s when he realized—maybe it wasn’t just bananas after all.

2. In the dairy section one morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every time he placed milk on the shelf, a nearby cat would jump up and knock over exactly three bottles before anyone could react. Curious, the driver followed the feline acrobat around the aisles. Soon enough, they found themselves in the bakery section where another cat was diligently knocking down exactly three loaves of bread each time someone tried to restock. The manager shook his head with a smile, saying, ‘Must be their way of keeping things interesting.’

3. In the frozen food aisle, a shopper picked up a bag of peas and found an unexpected surprise inside—a tiny note that read: ‘Dear customer, if you’re reading this, please return it to us—it’s not ours!’ As she opened another package, out popped a smiling post-it from a delivery driver: 'Hey there! Found this in our truck—looks yummy!'

4. In the produce section, a little boy pointed excitedly at the watermelons and whispered to his mom, ‘Mommy, why are these melons dancing?’ The mother smiled and gently explained, 'Honey, they’re not really dancing—they just look like it because of their shape.' The boy nodded thoughtfully, then looked up with a twinkle in his eye and asked, 'So if I roll them down the aisle, will they do a dance for everyone?'
