About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In a small town in the Midwest, Kroger’s checkout aisle one morning held an unexpected surprise—a bag of groceries labeled only with a note reading, ‘Take care of yourself today.’ No names or signatures were attached. As customers picked up their mystery bags, they found handwritten notes inside: 'Enjoy your day!' Some got apples and milk, others chocolate and flowers—each gift unique but always thoughtful. A delivery driver later confessed it was his idea; he’d been inspired by seeing neighbors helping each other during tough times. The whole town ended up laughing over it, calling themselves the kindest grocery store ever—and maybe they were.
2. At nightfall, a delivery driver pulled up to Kroger's loading dock with a mysterious package marked ‘DO NOT OPEN UNTIL FULL MOON.’ The next day, an announcement over the store PA read: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please avoid the cheese section until further notice.’ Over the next few days, customers noticed that the cheese aisle was replaced by a small moonlit garden complete with miniature cheese wheels growing on vines. A sign read: 'Cheese is nature’s way of saying “full moon.”' Eventually, everything returned to normal, and Kroger became known for its quirky but harmless full-moon antics.
3. In the early hours of dawn, a delivery driver pulling up to Kroger's loading dock noticed something peculiar: a faint humming sound like distant bees filled the air. Curious, he followed the noise inside and found rows upon rows of tiny glowing orbs nestled among the produce. Turned out they were just LED lights for the new energy-efficient display. A regular customer passing by chuckled, ‘Guess those bees got rewired!’
4. In the late afternoon, a regular grocer noticed something peculiar as he pushed his cart down the aisles. ‘Did you see that?’ he called out to no one in particular. ‘Every time I pass these tomatoes, they seem to be facing me.’ Curious, he stopped and turned around slowly—only to notice that every tomato indeed faced him. Suddenly, an elderly delivery driver chuckled from behind, saying, 'Ah, those are just Kroger’s famous talking tomatoes!' Everyone laughed, and soon enough, it became known among neighbors that whenever you needed advice or a smile, just ask the tomatoes in aisle seven.
