About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something strange: every time he arrived at Fotos Market, his truck’s rearview mirror reflected not just him, but an old lady smiling back at him from behind the checkout counter. The more he thought about it, the more convinced he was that she was trying to tell him something. So one day, he stopped and asked her why she always smiled at him. Turns out, she’d been dead for years—just a regular old ghost who liked checking out his handsome face. The driver shrugged and said, ‘At least I know someone appreciates my looks.’

2. One day, an elderly gentleman entered Fotos Market and asked the cashier with a twinkle in his eye, ‘Do you remember me from last week? I bought two rolls of film.’ The cashier smiled warmly, recognizing him immediately. 'Of course, sir!' she replied. The old man leaned closer conspiratorially, whispering, 'I developed them myself—can’t believe what I caught on those sneaky paparazzi trying to get my autograph!' Everyone in line burst into laughter as the cashier shook her head, knowing full well it was just another one of his stories.

3. One afternoon, as customers were browsing through aisles, a loud announcement crackled over the store’s PA: ‘Attention please! The price of bananas has officially become a mystery.’ People started asking each other, ‘How much are bananas today?’ and nobody knew for sure. A delivery driver even tried to sneak some into his truck, thinking they must be free. But then an old lady whispered to her friend, ‘Don’t worry, dear, I’m sure they’ll figure it out soon.’ And that became everyone’s comforting thought until the mystery was finally solved.

4. At closing time one night, a security guard heard a voice from the empty aisle: ‘Hey, you forgot your flashlight!’ The guard looked around but saw no one. He shrugged and walked back to his post, only to hear the same voice again: ‘Did you really leave it there?’ Glancing down, he found himself holding a small flashlight. Smiling, he muttered, ‘Guess I did.’
