About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver arrived early with a mysterious crate marked ‘Top Secret.’ As he unloaded it into the back room, strange whispers echoed through the store. Suddenly, a voice from behind said, 'Hey, you forgot the secret ingredient!' Turned out, it was just an excited neighbor who’d heard the commotion and dropped by for some fun. Everyone laughed as they realized the Top Secret crate held nothing more than free samples of Kroger’s newest gourmet cheese.'
2. In one aisle of Kroger, a regular noticed something odd in an empty shopping cart—an envelope taped to the handle read: ‘For Mr. Johnson.’ Inside was a note: ‘You’ve been chosen for our secret loyalty program!’ As days passed, more notes appeared: ‘Mrs. Smith, your milk is always fresh!’ and ‘Mr. Brown, thank you for recycling!’ Finally, someone from the store revealed it was their way of saying thanks without using words. Everyone laughed and started leaving little notes for each other too—making Kroger feel like a friendly neighborhood market.
3. In the late afternoon, a neighbor walking past Kroger heard a strange humming sound coming from inside. Curious, they peered through the glass doors and saw rows upon rows of cans quietly vibrating as if to a secret rhythm. Suddenly, an elderly delivery driver walked up to one of the shelves, tapped his cane on it, and said, ‘It’s just the ol’ cans getting their evening stretch.’ Everyone laughed, and soon the humming stopped—replaced only by the gentle rustle of grocery bags being filled. The mystery remained unsolved, but everyone agreed that Kroger had its own unique way of saying goodnight.
4. In the dairy section of Kroger, a shopper paused and asked aloud, ‘Why does milk here always seem to whisper “buy me”?’ Suddenly, an elderly neighbor appeared from behind the cheese counter and whispered back, ‘Because it’s crying for its mommy!’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing that maybe the whispering wasn’t so mysterious after all.
