About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was just another quiet morning at Harris Teeter when an old delivery driver pulled up in his truck. As he unloaded boxes of produce, something peculiar happened: every time he touched a certain crate of organic apples, they seemed to levitate slightly before gently settling back down. The delivery driver shrugged it off as no big deal—maybe the apples were just having a good day. Later that afternoon, while restocking shelves, a regular customer picked up one of those magical apples and exclaimed, ‘Hey, these taste amazing!’ From then on, Harris Teeter became known for its flying, flavorful apples, attracting curious shoppers from miles around.
2. A little boy was pushing his shopping cart down the aisle when he stopped dead in his tracks. His eyes widened as he pointed excitedly at something on the shelf. ‘Mommy!’ he exclaimed, ‘look what I found—an entire alphabet of candies!’ Turns out, the kid had stumbled upon a display only visible from one angle, and everyone in line behind him laughed and clapped. The mom smiled, relieved it wasn’t anything serious, just another Harris Teeter mystery solved.
3. A regular was browsing the produce section when something odd caught their eye—a watermelon with a note taped to it: ‘Free for anyone who can carry me out of here.’ The regular picked up the watermelon and started walking towards the exit, ignoring curious glances from other shoppers. Just as they reached the door, an employee called out, ‘Sir, that’s our biggest watermelon—you’ll need help carrying it!’ The regular grinned and replied, ‘I’ve got it, thanks,’ before waddling off with the gigantic melon under one arm.
4. At Harris Teeter, a neighborhood dog started following shoppers around the produce section, sniffing watermelons and pointing his nose towards strange shapes in the cheese aisle. Suddenly, an elderly gentleman approached the dog and asked, ‘Sonny, you’re doing great work here!’ The dog looked up proudly, tail wagging. A nearby delivery driver whispered to his colleague, ‘I guess that’s why they say Harris Teeter has the friendliest staff.’
