About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while a delivery driver was loading packages into The UPS Store, he noticed an odd humming sound coming from inside one of the boxes. Curious, he opened it and found nothing but a small, glowing cube that seemed to be emitting the noise. The delivery driver picked up the cube, rubbed his chin thoughtfully, and said aloud, ‘Well, I guess it’s time for some coffee!’ He took the glowing cube to the break room, placed it on the counter, and poured himself a cup. Suddenly, the cube started dancing around like a little neon disco ball, making everyone in the store laugh. From then on, whenever someone needed a pick-me-up, they’d just ask for ‘the dancing cube’.
2. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into The UPS Store and asked the clerk, ‘Do you know why they call it “UPS”?’ Before anyone could answer, another customer shouted from behind, ‘Because it’s always delivering unexpected packages!’ The first customer laughed heartily, replying, ‘No, sonny, because it stands for United Parcel Service!’ Just then, a delivery driver rushed in, yelling, ‘Hey, I’ve got a package here with your name on it—better open up that box of yours!’ Everyone burst out laughing as the poor guy realized he’d been pranked.
3. While helping a customer with her package one afternoon, the clerk at The UPS Store noticed something unusual in the parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper, just like any other parcel. But as she approached it, she realized there was no return address or sender’s name. Curious, she picked up the box and carried it inside. After scanning it, she found that it belonged to ‘John Doe, Anytown USA.’ Smiling, she decided to keep it for herself—just until its real owner showed up. Months later, when an old man finally claimed his forgotten package, everyone at the store burst out laughing when he exclaimed, ‘That’s mine? I thought I’d lost it forever!’
4. At closing time, the manager of The UPS Store heard a soft whimper coming from the empty hallway. Curious, she approached and found a small kitten sitting on top of a box, its eyes wide with confusion. Smiling gently, she scooped up the curious little creature and carried it to her desk. ‘What are you doing here, little one?’ she asked softly. Over the next hour, while sorting packages, she fed him some milk and played with him until he fell asleep in her arms. The next morning, she posted an ad online: “Found kitten at The UPS Store—looking for a new home.” Within minutes, a regular customer messaged, saying his granddaughter had been asking for just such a pet.
