About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the Costco Tire Center closed its doors, a mysterious van would pull up to the empty lot next door. A lone figure in a hoodie would emerge and disappear into the darkness, leaving behind an oddly familiar scent of fresh doughnuts. The next morning, someone found a small sign left on the ground: ‘Free donuts for tire purchases—just ask for the secret password “Freshly Baked”.’ It turned out that a friendly delivery driver had been doing this for months, making sure customers always felt appreciated after their visit to Costco Tire Center.
2. Late one evening, as the Costco Tire Center's neon sign flickered goodbye for the day, a delivery driver noticed something odd. The parking lot seemed unusually quiet until he heard soft laughter coming from behind the service bay. Curious, he crept closer and saw an old tire sitting on a workbench, gently glowing with its own neon light. A voice whispered, ‘Don’t you want to take me home?’ Turns out it was just an overzealous neon tube giving tires their own late-night party.
3. In the early morning hours, before the Costco Tire Center opened, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the parking lot. Among the neatly stacked tires, he found an old, dusty ukulele, its strings loose but intact. Curious, he picked it up and gave it a gentle strum. To his surprise, it played a soft, familiar tune—a childhood lullaby from his grandmother. From that day on, whenever things got busy or tiresome, someone would leave a ukulele note reminding everyone that even in the hustle of tire-changing, life’s simple pleasures never go out of style.
4. At midnight, after the Costco Tire Center’s closing bell sounded, an old pickup truck pulled up to the empty lot next door. Its headlights illuminated a strange figure who emerged from the bed of the truck, carrying a large box marked ‘Top Secret’. The box disappeared into the center, and no one ever saw it leave. The next morning, a delivery driver found a note taped inside his tire: 'Sorry for the inconvenience—we ran out of your size.' A few days later, a neighbor spotted the same mysterious figure pushing a shopping cart filled with donuts. 'Must be their secret recipe,' he whispered to himself, smiling.
