About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as a regular pushed his cart through the aisles of Grocery Depot, he noticed something odd: every time he passed the dairy section, his young son would suddenly grab for the milk and whisper ‘magic water’ under his breath. Finally, the father asked his son what magic was in that ordinary milk. The boy looked up with wide eyes and said, 'Dad, it makes moustaches grow!' They both laughed so hard they almost forgot their shopping list.

2. One day, an enthusiastic delivery driver rushed into the store, yelling that he had just seen a ghostly figure carrying a basket in the parking lot. Everyone rushed outside, but all they found was an old lady with a shopping basket, who smiled and said she thought she saw a sale on apples. The delivery driver blushed and apologized for his overactive imagination, while everyone went back inside laughing. That night, a regular commented jokingly, ‘Maybe next time you’ll see a ghostly sale on groceries!’

3. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet, a delivery driver rushed into the store, yelling that he had seen a ghostly figure in the produce section. Upon investigation, everyone found only a misplaced banana peel and an embarrassed produce clerk who claimed he was playing a prank. The next day, the whole neighborhood gathered for coffee, laughing about the ghost story and sharing their own supermarket adventures.

4. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet, a delivery driver rushed into the store, shouting: ‘We’ve got a talking tomato here!’ Everyone rushed over—there was indeed a tomato, red and shiny, sitting in the cooler. It blinked its little green stem like an eye and said, 'Hello!' The whole place erupted in laughter. Turns out it was just a prank from a delivery driver who loved practical jokes. From then on, customers would stop by to see if the tomato was still there, and everyone had a good laugh.
