About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At nightfall, an anonymous voice crackled over Koshco Superstore’s PA system: ‘If you see something strange in aisle seven, don’t be alarmed—just put it back where you found it.’ One night, a delivery driver noticed a glowing carton of milk in aisle three. He placed it back, and the next day it was gone from stock. Word spread, and soon neighbors would leave mysterious items in exchange for rare products. Eventually, someone left a note: 'Next time you see something unusual, grab a banana—it’s our secret signal.'

2. At closing time, a stray cat began appearing in the dairy aisle, staring intently at the milk cartons as if they held secrets only it could decipher. One day, an elderly neighbor walked into the store and asked the manager, ‘Why does that cat keep staring at the milk?’ The manager shrugged, ‘Who knows? Maybe she’s just checking for freshness.’ And from then on, whenever someone bought milk, they’d whisper, ‘Better check with the cat first!’

3. Late one night, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes of canned goods, he heard a soft humming coming from the frozen food section. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old vending machine playing an ancient Russian folk song. Turns out, it was owned by a neighbor who stocked it with his grandmother’s home-cooked borscht every weekend. The store manager joked that maybe they should start selling tickets for ‘musical grocery shopping.’

4. Late one night, as a security guard patrolled the empty aisles, he noticed something strange near the frozen foods section. Curious, he approached and saw a delivery driver dozing off next to a box of ice cream. Turns out, the guy had fallen asleep while waiting for someone to sign for his shipment. The guard chuckled, shook him awake, and sent them both home with a warning—never again to shop for groceries so late.
