About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an elderly gentleman entered Spar with his trusty shopping basket. As he approached the dairy aisle, something peculiar happened: every time he reached for milk, the bottles seemed to jump off the shelf and dance away. Finally, a delivery driver noticed the old man’s struggle and asked if everything was okay. With a twinkle in his eye, the gentleman replied, ‘It seems these mischievous bottles enjoy playing hide-and-seek!’ The driver laughed heartily and helped him find his way around. From then on, Spar became known not just for its fresh produce but also for occasional bottle pranks.

2. At dawn one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Spar's loading dock. Suddenly, from inside the empty store, came the sound of clinking glass and soft laughter. Curious, the driver approached the source of noise only to find an old cat meowing by some overturned bottles. Turns out, it was just another day at Spar—where even the staff included felines on duty.

3. In the early hours of a Sunday morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Spar’s loading dock. Among the usual boxes and bags, he spotted something peculiar—a small, dust-covered jar labeled ‘Lucky Shopping Beans.’ Curious, he opened it and found a single bean, glowing softly in his hand. Excitedly, he popped it into his mouth—and instantly felt an unusual energy course through him. From that day on, whenever anyone asked for a lucky charm at Spar, they received not just groceries but also a smile and a free bean from the friendly delivery driver.

4. Why does everyone avoid the aisle near the dairy section in Spar? Nobody knows for sure, but some say it’s because of the strange noise that comes from there after dark. One night, a delivery driver heard the noise and decided to investigate. Turned out, an old fridge was making funny sounds when its light flickered on and off. Since then, whenever anyone hears the noise, they just smile and whisper, ‘Probably just Mr. Fridge having another late-night party.’
