About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was an unseasonably cold morning in Hannaford’s parking lot when a delivery driver noticed something odd. The automatic doors seemed to open on their own, just for a second, every time someone walked past them. Curious, the driver mentioned it to a nearby employee, who shrugged it off as nothing unusual. Over the next few days, more people started noticing the quirky behavior—even neighbors passing by commented on it. Eventually, someone suggested leaving a note saying ‘doors are grateful’ and gently nudging them shut. It became a friendly neighborhood tradition until winter finally thawed.
2. It was a quiet Sunday afternoon at Hannaford's checkout aisle when a small child pointed excitedly and whispered, 'Mommy, why does that lady's shopping bag look like it's glowing?' The mother leaned down and smiled, ‘Oh honey, it’s just her new eco-bag, made from recycled glitter.’ The woman in question looked up sheepishly, muttering something about needing more practice with her new trendy accessory. Everyone laughed gently, and the neighbor behind them remarked, ‘At least she didn’t get one of those talking bags!’
3. It was a typical Thursday night at Hannaford’s deli counter when a regular noticed something peculiar. The cashier kept ringing up orders with the same exact total—$19.99—for every purchase. Curious, the regular asked the cashier why everything cost exactly $19.99. With a twinkle in his eye, the cashier replied, 'Simple, sir—it's our secret code for “you’re getting great value!”' The next day, everyone knew the price was just right—and so was the story.
4. It was a foggy morning at Hannaford’s bakery section when a delivery driver heard a strange humming sound coming from one of the shelves. Curious, he leaned in closer and saw a small packet of breadcrumbs dancing gently on the shelf. Turned out, an elderly neighbor had accidentally left her vacuum cleaner running in the car park overnight, creating just enough static electricity to make the crumbs move like little dancers. Everyone had a good laugh over coffee the next day.
