About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A delivery driver pulled up to Kroger one morning, puzzled by the note taped to the door. ‘Closed for restocking,’ it read, but the store had never been closed before. Curious, he parked and walked inside… Inside, everything was eerily quiet except for a faint hum coming from the back. As he approached the sound, he saw an old man in overalls pushing a massive shopping cart filled with canned goods. 'Just helping out,' the man said with a twinkle in his eye. The delivery driver shook his head and smiled, realizing that sometimes even supermarkets need a little extra stocking help.'
2. In an ordinary aisle of Kroger, a regular shopper noticed something unusual—a small, handwritten sign taped to a box of cereal read: ‘Free samples inside if you guess my age.’ Curious, our shopper opened the box and found nothing but a note inside: 'I’m 37, born on a Tuesday.' A delivery driver passing by overheard the laughter and confessed he was the one who put it there—just trying to make people smile. From then on, whenever someone asked for a sample, they’d get a little extra surprise: a friendly greeting and a story from an anonymous neighbor.
3. In the dairy section of Kroger, a little girl pointed and giggled, ‘Mommy, why do these milk cartons look like they’re smiling back at me?’ Her mom smiled and replied, ‘Honey, those cartons are just printed that way.’ A nearby delivery driver overheard and chuckled, ‘Actually, ma’am, they use a special technique called “happy face printing.” It’s supposed to make kids happy!’ The little girl nodded wisely, satisfied with her newfound knowledge.
4. In the frozen food aisle of Kroger, a young mother paused mid-browse. ‘Honey,’ she called out softly, ‘why does everyone here look so happy to see us?’ A kind-looking elderly gentleman approached and smiled warmly. 'Oh,' he whispered conspiratorially, 'they're just glad you picked our store today—our secret shoppers are everywhere!' The mom giggled, realizing her mistake, while the rest of the customers discreetly chuckled to themselves.
