About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while checking out at Kroger, a regular noticed an unusual item among the groceries—a bag of apples labeled with a handwritten note: ‘Take one, leave one.’ No one knew who left it or why, but soon everyone started participating in this mysterious exchange. Soon enough, word spread around town, and people from near and far came to Kroger just for these magical apples. One day, a delivery driver found not only apples but also a basket filled with freshly baked cookies—‘Take one, leave one’ now included sweets! It turned into a friendly competition: who could contribute the most creative goodies? By evening, Kroger’s checkout aisles were lined with bags of fruit, baskets of treats, and smiles on everyone's faces.
2. One night, as a delivery driver unloaded groceries into Kroger’s backroom, he swore he heard someone whispering behind him. Turning around, there was no one there—just empty shelves and boxes. Suddenly, an old lady in the aisle called out, ‘Honey, did you see those bananas?’ The delivery driver jumped, then laughed nervously. That night, everyone joked that maybe Kroger had hired ghost employees to help with stocking!’
3. One foggy morning, while stocking shelves in Kroger's produce section, a young employee kept hearing whispers from behind the bananas. Curious, she followed the voice and found an old apple quietly rolling down the aisle. Startled, she bent down to pick it up—and heard another whisper: 'Hey, thanks for that!' Turns out, it was just an overly talkative pear.
4. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded crates of oranges into Kroger’s back room, he heard a strange rustling sound from above. Peering up, he saw something moving behind the ceiling tiles—was it just a rat, or could it be…something more? Curious, he climbed onto a crate and peered closer. Turned out, it was just an overeager squirrel gathering nuts for winter. The next morning, everyone in the store laughed when they found a tiny acorn stashed among the apples. ‘Guess our new resident rodent has a sweet tooth,’ said a regular.}
