About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up outside Bargain Cleaners one morning, frowning as he inspected his van’s rear door. To his surprise, it was covered in tiny white dots—like hundreds of miniature shirts and pants had magically appeared overnight. Curious, he opened the back door—and out poured a flood of identical white garments, covering him like an unexpected snowstorm. A neighbor happened by and asked if everything was okay. With a sigh, the delivery driver replied, ‘I think my van decided to become a dry cleaner overnight.’

2. A neighbor muttered under her breath as she passed Bargain Cleaners one afternoon: ‘I swear those shirts never come out of there clean.’ One day, a delivery driver walked in with a package and asked for his usual service. The clerk smiled mysteriously and said, 'Don’t worry, sir—we’ve got your order!' Later that week, the driver received his package, opened it, and found a perfectly cleaned shirt… along with a note reading: "Next time, try ironing!"

3. A customer exclaimed one day, ‘Did you see what happened to my shirt?’ The staff looked puzzled until they noticed the tag hanging from its sleeve: ‘Dry Clean Only – Do Not Iron.’ Then a delivery driver chimed in, ‘I had a similar thing happen with my uniform!’ Everyone burst out laughing when he showed them his pants with the label still attached: ‘Do Not Dry Clean – Hand Wash Only.’ A regular customer shook her head and said fondly, ‘Welcome to Bargain Cleaners—where every garment gets an adventure before it comes back!’

4. A customer stormed into Bargain Cleaners one Monday, yelling, ‘My suit is missing buttons!’ The irate customer pointed an accusing finger at the counter clerk. The owner calmly replied, 'Sir, we've been in business for twenty years and never lost a button.' A delivery driver overheard and chimed in, 'Actually, I saw your buttons on top of the dryer!' Turns out they were just waiting for their turn.
