About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an ordinary day in Harps supermarket when a delivery driver noticed something odd. As he unloaded crates of bananas, he kept hearing strange noises coming from the produce section. Curious, he peered around the corner and saw nothing but bananas dancing to some invisible tune. Startled, he called out, ‘What on earth is going on here?’ A nearby banana replied, ‘Just having a little rhythm session.’ The delivery driver shook his head, smiling, and thought, ‘Maybe I should become a fruit DJ after retirement.’

2. It was past midnight when a delivery driver pulled up to Harps supermarket. The moonlight glinted off the empty parking lot, making it seem eerily quiet. As he unloaded crates of fresh produce, he heard a faint humming sound coming from inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old cashier dancing to some unknown tune, surrounded by boxes of cereal waving like crazy arms. ‘What on earth…?’ muttered the driver. He knocked gently on the door, but instead of stopping, she spun around, singing loudly, ‘I’m gonna buy me a puppy with that money!’ Turning back to his truck, he shook his head and smiled, thinking, ‘Harps indeed—more like Happy Market tonight.’

3. It was a quiet Sunday morning at Harps supermarket when a delivery driver noticed something unusual in the parking lot. A neighbor’s cat had somehow found its way into the loading bay and was curiously inspecting boxes of cereal. The delivery driver gently scooped up the curious feline and placed it back outside. The cat gave him one last puzzled look before sauntering off. That evening, as customers were leaving, they spotted the same cat lounging on a nearby bench, watching them with an amused expression. It seemed that Harps supermarket had gained itself a new, very chatty, security guard.

4. It was late afternoon at Harps supermarket when a delivery driver pulled up with a truckload of fresh produce. As he unloaded crates of apples, he swore he heard someone whispering from inside one box. Curious, he opened the crate gently and peered inside—only to discover a small parrot squawking and flapping its wings. ‘I thought you were saying “ripe bananas,”’ laughed the driver, scratching his head. The parrot promptly replied, ‘No, I said “fresh apples!”’
