About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as a regular pushed his shopping cart down the aisle, he stopped abruptly and looked around. The scent of freshly baked bread filled the air, but there was no bakery section in sight. Just then, an elderly delivery driver walked past, pushing a trolley full of canned goods. ‘I must be going crazy,’ muttered the shopper. But when the driver passed him, he sniffed again—yes, it was definitely fresh-baked bread. Turns out, the old guy had brought his own loaf from home!’
2. One night, while unloading groceries from her car, a neighbor noticed something strange: every time she passed Kroger’s entrance, she swore she heard faint laughter coming from inside the empty parking lot. Finally curious, one evening after dark, the neighbor peeked through the fence and saw nothing but shadows dancing in the moonlight. The next day, when she mentioned it to the delivery driver, he laughed and said, ‘That’s just old Mr. Kroger’s ghost, making sure everything is stocked right.’
3. Late one night, a delivery driver was unloading boxes of canned goods when he heard a faint rustling sound coming from behind him. Curious, he turned around and saw… nothing. But then, again. Finally, the driver realized it was just an old shopping bag caught on some cans. He laughed it off, thinking how sometimes Kroger’s late-night atmosphere could get to you. As he finished his shift, a friendly neighbor waved goodbye, saying, ‘See ya next time, delivery guy—maybe bring some snacks for us!’
4. One day, an elderly gentleman was scanning his groceries at the checkout counter when the cashier asked, ‘Sir, do you always buy so many bananas?’ He replied, ‘Just enough for my secret banana recipe.’ The cashier smiled and nodded knowingly. Over the next few weeks, whenever she saw him, she'd ask, 'How's your banana business going?' One day, a delivery driver overheard their conversation and joked, 'Hey, I heard Kroger’s secret ingredient is old man in banana suits!' Everyone burst out laughing, including the gentleman's embarrassed smile.
