About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as customers were stocking up on groceries, an announcement came over the store’s speakers: ‘Attention please—we’ve just received a shipment of talking bananas.’ A regular stopped mid-cart and whispered to his friend, ‘I’d better get one, just in case they’re for real!’ Soon enough, people from all over flocked to Harris Teeter to buy these supposedly magical bananas. One delivery driver even claimed he saw them singing in the backroom. As the day went on, neighbors started stopping by each other's houses to compare notes. Finally, after hours of speculation, the manager announced that it was all a hoax—a prank by a bored employee who thought it would be fun. Everyone laughed, shook their heads, and went home with their non-talking bananas.
2. In the Harris Teeter parking lot, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar one afternoon. As he unloaded crates of bananas, a small monkey darted out from behind a crate and began scurrying around the aisles, causing shoppers to gasp in surprise. A few minutes later, another employee spotted the little guy hiding in the produce section. With gentle coaxing, they managed to get him back into his crate. Turns out, it was someone’s pet that had accidentally escaped during loading. A few embarrassed smiles later, everyone went on their way—except for the delivery driver who now always double-checks if his bananas are banana-free.
3. One foggy morning in the Harris Teeter parking lot, a delivery driver heard a faint humming sound. As he approached the store entrance, he realized it wasn't coming from his truck—it was emanating from inside the grocery aisles. Curious, he followed the noise until he found an old lady pushing a shopping cart, singing softly to herself. She smiled and said, 'Morning, honey! Just hummin' along to my favorite tunes.' The delivery driver shook his head, smiling, and thought, ‘Next time I’ll bring earplugs.’
4. In the Harris Teeter parking lot, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar one afternoon. ‘Did you hear that?’ he asked aloud, glancing around nervously. As he looked down, he saw an old shopping cart slowly rolling towards him. Startled, he watched it turn and head back towards the store entrance. Rubbing his eyes, he thought maybe he was just seeing things—until another cart joined from the other side of the lot. With a laugh, he muttered, ‘Okay, Harris Teeter, I get it—you’re trying to tell me something!’
