About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Smith’s Supermarket, every morning around 8 AM, an old man named ‘Mr. Johnson’ would push his shopping cart down the aisles. One day, a new sign appeared above the produce section: ‘Apples make you smarter than carrots today.’ The next day it changed: ‘Carrots are healthier than bananas now.’ And so began the daily mystery of Smith’s. One morning, Mr. Johnson found himself in front of the dairy section, and there it was—‘Milk helps you grow taller than yogurt!’ He looked up, puzzled, then glanced at the milk carton in his hand. A delivery driver passing by chuckled and whispered, ‘Maybe he’ll try standing on tiptoes tonight.’ The story ended with Mr. Johnson smiling, pushing his cart past the cheese display, where a note read, “Cheese makes your beard taste better.” Everyone shook their heads and smiled, knowing that at Smith’s anything could happen—and probably did.
2. At Smith’s Supermarket, one day after closing, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the shelves: boxes of cereal labeled with handwritten notes saying, ‘Eat me last.’ Curious, he picked up one box and read the note again—this time it said, ‘Only if you’re really hungry.’ The next morning, everyone in town was talking about it, and soon enough, an anonymous neighbor left a basket filled with fresh-baked cookies near the store entrance. It turned out to be just another friendly Smith’s mystery.
3. At Smith’s Supermarket, late at night when everyone else had gone home, a security guard heard strange noises coming from the produce section. Curious, he approached cautiously and found only a banana dancing to old rock music on the radio. Turns out, an enthusiastic delivery driver had accidentally left it turned on. Since then, employees joke that Smith’s has its own secret DJ after dark.
4. At Smith’s Supermarket, in the early hours before dawn, a lone security guard heard soft footsteps echoing through the empty aisles. Curious, he followed them to the dairy section, where an old carton of milk stood half-opened. Startled by his presence, a sleepy-looking cow poked its head out from behind the shelves and said, ‘Morning, mate! Thought you could use some fresh milk for your breakfast.’ The guard laughed, shook his head, and went back to his patrol, muttering under his breath that maybe it was time for a coffee break.
