About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Vallarta supermarket, a regular once asked aloud: ‘Why does every tortilla chip I buy here taste like someone’s dog just licked it?’ It turned out that a delivery driver had been using the same truck for both groceries and his pet Chihuahua’s treats. Needless to say, the chips never tasted quite right after that.}
2. At Vallarta supermarket, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in one of the shopping carts on the loading dock—a bag filled with brightly wrapped candies. Curious, he opened it and found rows upon rows of tiny, individually wrapped chocolates, each shaped like a different state from across America. As he counted them, he realized there were exactly fifty states’ worth—one for every U.S. state. Smiling, he decided to keep just one from his home state before putting everything back. Later that night, while sharing stories around the neighborhood barbecue, someone joked that maybe those chocolates would lead him to discover hidden treasure somewhere. And who knows? Maybe they did—because ever since then, whenever anyone buys groceries at Vallarta, they say they feel lucky.
3. At Vallarta supermarket, a delivery driver noticed that every time he left his truck unattended for more than five minutes, someone would rearrange the entire produce section. Curious, the driver installed a hidden camera. The next day, during lunch break, they watched in amusement as an elderly gentleman carefully replaced each apple and tomato back into its original spot—obviously thinking it was his job. ‘A regular,’ the driver chuckled, shaking his head. Since then, whenever anyone asked why the produce section always looked so neatly arranged, they’d just smile and say, “Oh, our little volunteer.”
4. At Vallarta supermarket, a delivery driver noticed an odd message scribbled on each box of tortillas: ‘Only buy if you’re thirsty.’ Curious customers started filling their baskets with everything wet. Soon enough, the store was filled with gallons of water, juice boxes, and even ice cream—everyone thought they were buying something refreshing! The manager scratched his head but smiled, realizing it was just another quirky Vallarta mystery. A regular customer shrugged, saying, 'Hey, better safe than sorry when there's a note like that!'
