About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, a regular asked the cashier, ‘Why does that Kroger bag boy always leave with a smile and wave?’ The cashier whispered back, ‘He’s not just any bag boy—he’s our secret Santa. Every week, he sneaks out with a bag filled with free groceries for someone in need.’ The regular laughed, shaking his head, as he paid for his items and left, thinking, ‘That Kroger might be magical after all!’
2. At night, when the store closed, an employee noticed something strange happening in the dairy aisle. Every few minutes, a small shadow darted between shelves, knocking over milk cartons and leaving behind empty spaces on the shelves. Curious, the worker followed the shadow to the backroom fridge. There, amidst the cheese and yogurt, sat a neighborhood cat with a mischievous grin, licking its paws. The next day, employees found a note taped to the manager’s desk: ‘Thanks for the extra treats!’
3. One morning, while stocking shelves, a young worker overheard an elderly customer muttering, 'I’ve been coming here for years, but why is that Kroger aisle always so darned quiet?' The next day, another employee noticed an old shopping cart parked in the empty aisle. Inside was a note: ‘Dear Kroger, please hire more people to chat with me while I shop.’ A few days later, someone painted a big smiley face on the wall of that aisle. The store manager shook his head and said, ‘Guess we’ll keep it like that—it’s cheaper than hiring a full-time gossip!’
4. In the dairy aisle one afternoon, a shopper picked up a gallon of milk and found a note taped inside: ‘Free sample if you can drink it without laughing.’ The shopper took a deep breath, poured the milk into a glass, and downed it in one gulp—only to erupt into laughter halfway through. A nearby delivery driver overheard and asked what was so funny. 'I drank the whole thing!' she said between giggles. 'But I couldn’t help it—it tasted like banana!’
