About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when Smith’s grocery store usually buzzed with early birds, a lone shopping cart rolled down the empty aisles. A regular noticed it and followed its slow progress through the silent shelves. The cart stopped near the dairy section, where an old carton of milk lay abandoned. The regular picked up the milk, checked the expiration date, shrugged, and placed it back. Then he noticed a note stuck inside: ‘Forgot this here.’ He laughed out loud, realizing that Smith’s had just hired its first forgetful delivery driver.
2. At closing time, when Smith’s supermarket was already empty, an old cashier whispered to herself, ‘I’m sure I saw those apples moving.’ Suddenly, a delivery driver walked in and asked for some bananas. The cashier blinked twice, then pointed towards the backroom with a smile: 'They’re over there, but be quick— they seem to be getting restless!'
3. At midnight, when Smith’s supermarket was eerily quiet, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the dairy aisle. As he peered closer, an old carton of milk seemed to move ever so slightly. Startled, he called out, but only heard his own echoes bouncing off empty shelves. Turning around, he found himself face-to-face with a friendly neighborhood cat who had just been exploring the store. The delivery driver laughed it off, realizing it was just another late-night adventure at Smith’s.
4. At lunchtime, when Smith’s supermarket was usually crowded with shoppers, a delivery driver heard a strange humming sound coming from one of the aisles. Curious, he approached and found nothing out of place—until he looked up and saw the ceiling lights flickering in perfect rhythm. The delivery driver shrugged and thought, ‘Who knows, maybe it’s just an old ghost trying to tell us something.’ He cleared his throat and softly sang along, causing the lights to synchronize perfectly with his tune. A few minutes later, everyone in the store joined in, creating a spontaneous sing-along that turned the usual lunch-hour rush into a cheerful community event.
