About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while scanning shelves for vitamins, a regular noticed something peculiar: every time he passed by aisle seven, an eerie humming sound would briefly fill the air. It lasted only seconds but seemed to come from nowhere and everywhere simultaneously. Curious, he mentioned it to a delivery driver who casually replied, ‘Oh that? That’s just old Mr. Johnson’s hearing aid.’ Turns out, the pharmacist had recently taken in Mr. Johnson’s battery-powered device, which occasionally activated when left on the shelf.
2. One day, a delivery driver asked aloud: ‘Why does this prescription always take longer than groceries?’ A regular customer overheard him and replied, ‘Because they’re waiting for your grocery receipt to process your meds!’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the pharmacist who shook his head and said, “Welcome to United Supermarket!”
3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside and noticed an odd glow coming from behind the pharmacy's closed doors. Curious, he peered inside through the window and saw bottles of medicine arranged in patterns that shifted like shadows on the wall. As he watched, a bottle of aspirin seemed to float towards another of ibuprofen, making a tiny clinking sound. The delivery driver laughed, thinking it was some prank by a bored pharmacist. But then, just as quickly, everything went still again. He shrugged, shook his head, and drove off—swearing he’d seen nothing unusual.
4. On a particularly humid afternoon, a delivery driver parked his truck next to the United Supermarket in-store Pharmacy. As he unloaded boxes, he heard an unusual sound coming from inside—a rhythmic clicking that seemed to come from the pharmacy's automated dispensing machine. Curious, he peered through the glass door and saw nothing but blinking lights and whirring gears. Suddenly, a small robotic arm popped out, waved at him, and said, 'Hi there! Just checking if you're human.' The delivery driver laughed and replied, 'I sure am!' Turning back to his truck, he thought, 'Guess I'll just wait here for my package—maybe they'll serve cookies too!'
