About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular noticed something strange in the H-E-B parking lot—an old shopping cart seemed to be following him around. The man slowed down, curious but cautious. Just then, another customer walked past the cart and it veered away, following her instead. Turns out, it was just an old shopping cart with wheels that were slightly off-center. The regular laughed it off as he finished his groceries, realizing it had been quite the amusing morning after all.
2. In the early hours of one Sunday morning, a delivery driver pulled up to H-E-B with an unusual request. As he approached the checkout counter, the cashier couldn't help but notice that every item in his cart had been carefully arranged alphabetically. The cashier smiled and asked, ‘Did you do this for fun?’ The delivery driver replied, ‘Nope, it’s my wife’s idea of love—she says it makes her feel special.’ A regular customer overheard them and chuckled, shaking his head: ‘Next time, alphabetize your socks too!’
3. Late one night, as an overnight stocker was restocking shelves, he heard a soft humming coming from the dairy aisle. Curious, he peered around the corner and saw nothing but rows upon rows of milk bottles, gently swaying back and forth. As he watched in amazement, one bottle tipped over, then another, until they were all dancing like little soldiers in formation. With a laugh, he joined in, singing along softly. Suddenly, a voice boomed overhead: ‘Store closing in five minutes!’ Turning red, he quickly straightened everything up just as a delivery driver walked by, shaking his head and muttering something about ‘another late-night party’.
4. Late one night, as an overnight stocker was restocking shelves, he caught a whiff of something peculiar—a faint scent of freshly baked cookies wafting from the bakery section. Curious, he followed his nose and found an open package of chocolate chip cookies on the floor. Smiling to himself, he thought it must’ve been a delivery driver’s prank. The next morning, when everyone arrived for work, they discovered that every cookie in the store had mysteriously disappeared—except for one lonely cookie left on top of the display case with a note: ‘Try before you buy!’
