About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver asked angrily, ‘Why is there a shopping cart in the middle of the aisle?’ An old lady, pushing her cart, calmly replied, ‘It’s not mine, I swear! It must be a neighbor’s.’ The delivery driver shook his head and muttered, ‘Next time, leave your cart outside like everyone else!’
2. One night, a Kroger employee exclaimed, 'Who keeps leaving empty boxes on the shelves?' It turned out that a regular customer, known for his love of practical jokes, was playing a prank. Each night after closing, he sneaked back into the store and rearranged some items just for fun. The employee laughed it off, saying, ‘Welcome to Kroger—where even the boxes have a mind of their own!’
3. One day, while stocking the shelves, a young employee noticed something strange: someone had left a perfectly folded handkerchief next to each box of tissues. Curious, she followed the trail of hankies until it led her to the backroom where an old delivery driver dozed off with his head on a crate of tissues. Turns out he’d been sneezing all morning and decided to leave little tokens for everyone as thanks. The story became a Kroger legend—everyone now knows that if you see a neatly folded handkerchief, just smile and grab a tissue.
4. One afternoon, as customers were browsing through the aisles, an elderly gentleman approached the deli counter and asked curiously, 'Do you sell ketchup that tastes like it’s been crying?' The deli clerk smiled warmly and replied, ‘Sir, our ketchup is made fresh every day.’ The old man nodded thoughtfully, then added with a twinkle in his eye, ‘Well, I guess some tears are worth waiting for!’ Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere in the store became friendlier than ever.
