About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Price Chopper, an elderly lady whispered to her shopping companion one chilly autumn morning, ‘Did you see that man’s cart just flew off its wheels?’ Her friend shook her head and replied, ‘No, I didn’t.’ They both laughed softly as they watched a delivery driver scramble to gather up the scattered items. The old lady nudged her companion and whispered, ‘Guess he needs some practice on those slippery floors!’

2. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet, a delivery driver noticed something odd in Price Chopper’s loading dock. A box of canned beans kept opening and closing on its own. Curious, he approached the box closer—only for it to open wide again, revealing not beans but a neighbor’s lost shopping list. Turns out, every morning at precisely six, Mr. Jenkins’ grocery list would mysteriously appear here. The driver laughed it off, thinking it was just an old man’s prank, until one day they found him standing outside, holding a cart full of items from his latest missing list.

3. At Price Chopper, a young mom asked her child, ‘Why does everyone here shop with their eyes closed?’ The kid thought for a moment and replied, ‘Mom, they’re not really blind—they just pretend so they don’t see how much stuff costs!’ The whole store erupted in laughter as people opened their eyes wide, pretending to be surprised.

4. At Price Chopper, a little dog followed its owner down every aisle, stopping suddenly whenever he saw a box of cereal with a strange smiley face. Finally, an old lady stopped and asked the dog, ‘Aren’t you lost, little guy?’ The dog looked up at her with those big puppy eyes and wagged his tail. The cashier laughed and said, ‘He’s probably just here for the free samples!’ And that’s how everyone learned that Price Chopper had the friendliest canine shopper around.
