About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At the Sale Circle Post Office, every morning around sunrise, a regular would arrive early with his bicycle and a strange basket full of old newspapers. His dog, a scruffy mutt named Max, always seemed to sense something unusual as he approached the door. One day, while waiting for the mailman to open up, little Sarah, who lived nearby, noticed that Max would stare intently at the same spot on the wall near the entrance. What was he seeing there? Finally, one morning, Sarah followed Max’s gaze and saw a tiny hole in the wall, just big enough for a nose to peek through. Turns out, it led to an adorable squirrel nest inside the post office! From then on, whenever anyone asked why Max stared so intensely, the locals would wink and say, ‘He’s checking if the squirrels got their letters.’

2. At the Sale Circle Post Office, there’s an old mailbox that no one can remember ever delivering anything from. People joke that it’s the post office’s secret vault. One day, a regular came in and asked if they could use the mysterious mailbox for their garden shed. The postmaster laughed and said, ‘Sure thing, just don’t expect any mail!’ A few weeks later, someone saw the neighbor wheeling his new shed out of the old mailbox, smiling broadly. Turns out, it was perfect storage for his gardening tools.’

3. At dawn, when most mailboxes are quiet, a delivery driver noticed something unusual: someone had left a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper outside the Sale Circle Post Office. Curious, the driver opened it carefully—inside was just an old cardboard box filled with crumpled newspapers and a note scribbled in pencil: ‘Please recycle.’ Turns out, a regular had been leaving these packages every week as a friendly reminder for everyone to keep the place tidy.

4. At the Sale Circle Post Office, there's a peculiar tradition among locals. Every Wednesday afternoon, just as the clock strikes three, a mysterious figure in a fedora appears and asks for ‘the package with no address’. No one knows who they are or what they’re talking about. One day, an excited delivery driver arrived, yelling, 'Finally found it!' He handed over a small box labeled only with a smiley face. The mysterious man smiled back, saying, 'Thanks, old friend,' before disappearing into the crowd. To this day, nobody knows if he ever received his actual package.
