About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning in Kroger’s dairy aisle when a delivery driver noticed something odd. The milk bottles seemed to be moving ever so slightly on their own. Curious, he followed the movement and found that one of the milk cartons had a tiny hole, causing a gentle breeze from an open window to create the illusion. A regular customer passing by laughed and said, ‘Must’ve been those pesky ghosts again!’

2. A regular was scanning his groceries at checkout one foggy afternoon when he heard a voice from behind: ‘Excuse me, sir—you forgot your milk!’ The man turned around, surprised, and saw an old neighbor smiling back at him. ‘Hey,’ she said, “I just wanted to remind you that life is like milk—once it goes bad, you can’t get it fresh again.’ The cashier laughed, shaking his head as he scanned another gallon.

3. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded crates of bananas, he swore he saw a tiny hand reach out from behind a box and grab a bunch. Confused, the driver looked around, but found no one. Just as he was about to dismiss it as his imagination, another little hand popped up and said, ‘Thank you!’ Turned out, an adorable squirrel had stashed some nuts in the crate. The driver laughed it off, thinking it was just another late-night Kroger adventure.

4. In the early hours of the morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Kroger's loading dock with a truck full of fresh produce. As he unloaded boxes of apples, he noticed something peculiar—a small, dusty cardboard box had been left behind. Curious, he opened it and found inside a note scribbled in childish handwriting: ‘Please take these apples home—my mom says they’re too ugly for our store.’ The delivery driver smiled, shook his head, and drove off, thinking, ‘Maybe next time I’ll bring my own basket.’
