About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning in Poziomka’s dairy aisle, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. Every time he approached the milk section, he swore he heard soft laughter echoing from behind the shelves. Curious, he followed the sound deeper into the aisles until he found himself facing an empty shelf—except for one bottle of yogurt that kept spinning slowly on its own. The delivery driver shook his head and laughed it off as just another prank by their friendly neighborhood teenager. That night, when he went home, he found a note taped to his fridge: ‘Next time, check the cheese section!’

2. In the late afternoon, a groggy cashier muttered under her breath as she rang up yet another suspicious-looking customer. ‘This is the third time today someone’s bought an entire case of pickles and then pretended they didn’t see the price.’ Finally, around closing time, a sleepy neighbor walked in with two oversized bags. The cashier raised an eyebrow but said nothing, scanning the items without checking the prices. When he left, she shook her head and whispered, 'Guess I’ll never understand why anyone would buy so many bananas.'

3. In the frozen food section one night, an employee overheard someone whispering, ‘This ice cream is getting warmer every minute.’ Curious, the worker followed the sound and found nothing but empty shelves. The next day, a delivery driver mentioned that he’d seen a regular stocking up on ice cream just before closing time. Turns out, it was just an old neighborhood joke—everyone knew Poziomka’s freezer had a mind of its own.

4. At midnight, a stocker stacked boxes in the produce section when he heard a faint rustling sound behind him. Reaching for the flashlight, he turned around—only to see a banana peel slowly sliding away. The stocker followed it cautiously, thinking maybe it was just an errant fruit trying to escape grocery slavery. Suddenly, another banana skin glided past, then another—and soon enough, the entire aisle was covered in bananas on the run. With a sigh, he grabbed a carton and herded them back onto the shelves like a modern-day shepherd. A nearby delivery driver whistled appreciatively: ‘That’s one way to get your five-a-day!’
