About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular noticed something peculiar in the cereal aisle—an open box of Captain Crunch, its contents mysteriously rearranged into intricate patterns. Nobody else seemed to notice. Soon enough, word spread through the store like wildfire. People started finding strange designs everywhere—even a perfect spiral made from Rice Krispies in the snack section. The manager finally noticed during her lunch break and burst out laughing when she saw what looked like a giant smiley face drawn with chocolate chips on the bakery counter. That day, Kroger became famous for its secret night-time artist who loved leaving cheerful messages for customers.
2. One day while checking out, a customer exclaimed, ‘This is the strangest Kroger yet!’ The cashier raised an eyebrow and asked why. ‘Well,’ said the customer, pointing to the shelf behind her, ‘I just saw a bag of chips levitate off the rack!’ The cashier smiled knowingly and replied, ‘Oh, that’s our new self-checkout aisle—we’re testing some fancy AI technology.’ Just then, another bag of chips soared into the air, followed by a can of soda. A nearby delivery driver chuckled and commented, ‘Looks like old Kroger’s getting a bit too excited today!’
3. In an ordinary Kroger parking lot, a delivery driver parked his truck as usual. But today, when he went back for his lunch bag, he found it floating mid-air near his tire. Confused and slightly amused, the driver looked around but saw no one nearby. He shrugged, took out his lunch from another pocket, and walked away whistling. Later that day, while unloading groceries, his neighbor joked, ‘Did you see your lunch flying again?’ The driver smiled and replied, ‘Nah, just my imagination running wild.’
4. At closing time one night, a security guard heard a strange voice over the intercom: ‘Last one out of Kroger, please turn off the lights and take the last cookie.’ Curious, the guard followed the voice to the bakery section where an old cookie jar stood. He opened it—empty. Turns out, a delivery driver had left a note inside: 'Next time, pick a less popular cookie!'
