About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as customers were settling in for their daily routine, an unfamiliar voice crackled over Mascoma Bank’s intercom: ‘Attention, everyone—your accounts are now filled with exactly one million dollars each.’ Everyone froze for a moment, then pandemonium erupted! A regular exclaimed, ‘That’s more money than I’ve seen in my life!’ The delivery driver whispered to his colleague, ‘I wonder if they’ll notice if I take just a little.’ Meanwhile, outside, a neighbor commented, ‘Looks like someone forgot to turn off the automatic deposit feature.’ In the end, it turned out to be a software glitch, and everyone got a free lunch from the bank cafeteria.
2. One day, while a regular was counting his change, he noticed something odd: every fifth bill had a tiny smiley face printed on it. Curious, our regular asked around and discovered that only bills from Mascoma Bank’s Friday afternoon shipment carried these little faces. Soon enough, everyone in town started waiting for their weekly dose of smiling money. Even the grumpiest delivery driver couldn’t help but crack a smile when handling those bills.
3. One afternoon, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes into the Mascoma Bank's storage room, he spotted something peculiar on the shelf: a small, dusty jar labeled ‘Free Lucky Charms.’ Intrigued, he opened it and found nothing but an old note that read: 'For whoever finds this—help yourself!' Turns out, it had been there since the bank’s grand opening years ago. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned Free Lucky Charms, everyone would smile and remember the day someone accidentally rediscovered a long-forgotten tradition.
4. In the early hours of one foggy morning, a little girl walked her dog past the Mascoma Bank. Suddenly, the dog froze, staring intently at the building’s entrance. The girl looked too and saw… nothing. Just then, an old man walking his own dog chuckled and said, ‘That dog must’ve seen the ghosts of past audits!’ They both laughed, and the girl realized that sometimes, even in foggy banks, life is just full of friendly surprises.
