About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as customers were picking up groceries, an announcement came over Publix’s speakers: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, our self-checkout scanner has detected that bananas are trying to leave without paying.’ A nearby delivery driver heard the announcement and rushed in, yelling, 'I’ve got this!' He picked up a banana and started scanning it like it was his last job of the day. Everyone burst out laughing, and the whole ordeal turned into a fun little show until someone remembered to scan some actual groceries.
2. While checking out one afternoon, a cashier asked a regular if he’d seen the strange lights flickering above the produce section. The man shrugged and said, ‘Nah, never noticed anything.’ The cashier then pointed up towards the ceiling and whispered, ‘Wait till you see what’s happening in dairy aisle!’ Turns out it was just an old fluorescent light that had seen better days.
3. In the early hours of a Sunday morning, a delivery driver was unloading boxes in the backroom when he heard something strange coming from the freezer section. Curious, he crept closer and saw a frozen turkey wiggling its legs as if dancing. Startled, he jumped back, only to slip on some spilled milk and fall flat on his face. A minute later, a regular customer passing by asked, ‘Hey, are you okay? Did that turkey just do the macarena?’
4. In the dead of night, when most supermarkets are silent, a lone delivery driver was unloading boxes into Publix's backroom. Suddenly, he heard a voice whispering from behind the shelves: 'Thank you for your patience today.' Curious, the driver turned around—but there was no one there. Just an empty aisle and some slightly misplaced cans of beans. He shrugged it off as his imagination playing tricks on him. The next morning, however, Publix’s manager found him laughing in the break room, recounting how he’d seen ‘the ghost of a canned-bean enthusiast.’
