About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Vons grocery store, after hours when everything should be quiet, a regular noticed something strange: every night, the same shopping cart would appear near the cheese aisle, pushed by an invisible hand. Finally, one night, a delivery driver followed the ghostly cart and found it parked next to a box of invisible cookies. When he looked around, nobody was there—except for a note stuck to the handle: ‘Thanks for your patience! Vons Cheese Department’.
2. At Vons supermarket, one morning after closing, an overnight security guard found a mysterious package in the produce section. Curious but cautious, he called it in—only to discover it contained nothing more than a note reading: ‘Free apples for anyone brave enough to take them.’ The next day, another employee noticed that some apples were indeed missing from the display. A few days later, someone left a similar note: 'Apples are free, but only if you leave a smile behind.' Soon, every time someone took an apple, they’d find a little thank-you card with a doodle or a funny joke. It became a fun tradition among locals until one day, a delivery driver brought in boxes of fresh apples and a sign saying, "Welcome to our new neighborhood grocery store! Free apples forever."}
3. At Vons supermarket, a little boy followed a strange cat that kept appearing and disappearing between aisles. Finally, an old lady in line asked the boy, ‘Did you find what you were looking for?’ The boy replied, ‘Just trying to catch up with my new friend.’ Everyone laughed as the cat reappeared from behind a cart, meowing contentedly. From then on, Vons became known not just for its groceries but also for occasional feline appearances.
4. At Vons supermarket, during a routine inventory check, a delivery driver stumbled upon an old, dusty jar hidden behind boxes of canned beans. Curious, he opened it—and inside was a note reading: ‘Take me home.’ The delivery driver took the mysterious jar home and placed it on his kitchen counter. Over dinner, his neighbor popped over and asked what it was. With a smile, he replied, 'I don’t know, but I think it’s our new family heirloom!'
