About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Fry’s Marketplace, a regular noticed something peculiar one morning while checking out. The cashier kept repeating the same phrase over the intercom: ‘Remember to buy enough bananas for tomorrow.’ It sounded like a simple reminder, but everyone knew bananas were never on sale. Soon, people started bringing their own baskets filled with bananas—just in case. A delivery driver even brought a ladder and hung signs everywhere that said ‘BANANAS FOR TOMORROW ONLY!’ Finally, an old neighbor came up to the manager and asked, ‘Is it true you’re running out of bananas?’ The manager smiled and replied, ‘No, sir, we just want to make sure everyone has enough bananas for tomorrow!’
2. At Fry’s Marketplace, an aisle mysteriously rearranged itself overnight. When a regular arrived early for groceries, shelves seemed to swap places, leaving bananas next to baking soda and ketchup near kitchen towels. Confused, the shopper asked a nearby delivery driver for help, who just shrugged and said, ‘It happens every Tuesday.’ Meanwhile, a neighbor passing by chuckled, picked up a box of cereal, and commented, ‘Guess they’re testing out their new organizational algorithm!’
3. At Fry’s Marketplace, every Wednesday afternoon around 3 PM, the produce section would suddenly fill with the scent of freshly baked bread. No ovens were nearby, and no employees could explain it. One day, a delivery driver noticed an old lady picking up loaves from the air as she walked past the shelves. When he asked her what she was doing, she replied, 'Oh, I just help myself to some fresh bread—everyone else does!' From then on, whenever someone complained about missing bread, everyone knew to blame ‘Mrs. Floating Loaf.’
4. At Fry’s Marketplace, a regular exclaimed in surprise as he reached for his favorite cereal one day: ‘I thought I bought every box of these!’ As it turned out, someone had been secretly stocking up on cereal for a neighborhood fundraiser. A delivery driver joked that maybe they were planning to open their own mini-cereal empire someday. The regular just shook his head and laughed, knowing full well that next time he’d find an extra box or two waiting for him—because Fry’s Marketplace always seemed to have a way of keeping things interesting.
