The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an announcement crackled over The UPS Store’s intercom: ‘Attention, please pick up your packages within twenty-four hours or risk being transported to our secret warehouse!’ Ever since then, customers have been checking their mailboxes twice daily. One day, a regular customer asked the staff if they had indeed moved anyone to that mysterious warehouse. With a twinkle in his eye, one employee replied, 'Oh yes, Mr. Smith was transferred last week—now he lives in a box with free Wi-Fi!' Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just another urban legend.}

2. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver pulled into The UPS Store parking lot. He noticed something odd: a small, neatly wrapped package sitting on the bench, addressed to no one in particular. Curious, he picked it up and saw that the label was blank except for one word scribbled in pencil: ‘Happy Birthday.’ Inside was just a card saying, “To someone special.” Turns out, it was from his neighbor who forgot their own birthday again. The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and wished them a belated happy birthday as he drove off.

3. At nightfall, a delivery driver parked outside The UPS Store and noticed something odd on the door: ‘Closed for paranormal activity,’ it read in bold letters. Curious, he knocked gently. A voice from inside said, 'We’re closed, but feel free to come back tomorrow!' Turns out, it was just a prank from a regular who liked to spice things up around here.

4. At lunchtime, while customers were browsing through envelopes and stickers, a faint humming sound filled the air. It grew louder with each passing minute until it became impossible to ignore. Finally, one brave customer stood up and asked, ‘Is that a bee in your ceiling or are you just happy to see us?’ Turns out, it was an oversized package drone delivering free stickers for everyone. The end.
