About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Kroger’s late-night shift, a regular noticed something peculiar: every Tuesday, a stray cat would appear exactly at midnight, walking down the aisles and nudging cans of tuna with its nose. One night, a delivery driver saw it too and tried shooing the cat away, but ended up dropping an entire box of cereal. The next morning, everyone in the store found tiny boxes of Frosted Flakes scattered across the produce section. Since then, customers joke that Kroger has a secret midnight marketing team — except they prefer natural peanut butter over discounts.
2. At Kroger's early-morning stockroom, a sleepy delivery driver asked aloud: ‘Who keeps rearranging these cans?’ Suddenly, an old cashier with twinkling eyes appeared from behind a shelf and whispered: ‘Why, that’s our new night janitor, trying to organize things for efficiency.’ The driver shook his head, smiling: ‘Next time I’ll just leave them as is—less mystery, less work!’
3. At Kroger’s checkout counter one day, a cashier announced over the intercom: 'Ladies and gentlemen, our self-checkout scanner has developed a new skill—it now detects when you’re not from around here!' A confused-looking customer slowly approached the counter, muttering something about ‘aliens’ and ‘laser beams.’ The cashier smiled and said, ‘Don’t worry, ma’am, it just means you’ve got an accent!’ Everyone laughed, including the poor soul who’d been scanned as an out-of-towner.
4. At Kroger’s bakery section, an employee muttered under her breath: ‘Why does everything taste better after midnight?’ One night, a delivery driver overheard the same muttering and asked curiously, ‘What makes it taste so good?’ The baker grinned mischievously, replying, ‘Because I sneak in some extra sugar when everyone leaves.’ They both laughed, realizing that sometimes magic happens when no one’s watching.
