About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as a regular was browsing through the shelves of Big 5 Nail Supply, he heard an unexpected announcement over the store’s intercom: ‘Attention, please! We’ve received a special shipment today—nails so strong they can hold up a house!’ Curious, our regular approached the counter, only to see a delivery driver grinning sheepishly with a box labeled ‘Nails for Construction Projects.’ The manager laughed and explained, ‘We got confused orders—nothing serious!’ And that day, everyone left Big 5 Nail Supply with a new story to tell.
2. A little boy followed his mom into Big 5 Nail Supply one day, eyes wide with curiosity. As she browsed the colorful bottles, he pointed excitedly at a shelf, whispering, ‘Mom, what are those funny-shaped nails for?’ The mother smiled and explained gently, 'Those are just different shapes for nail art, honey.' The little boy nodded thoughtfully, then asked if they had any glittery ones. They did—and that’s how their family discovered a new hobby together. Moral of the story? Sometimes even the oddest places hold unexpected joys.
3. A delivery driver pulled up to the Big 5 Nail Supply late one afternoon, frowning as he eyed the huge pile of boxes in his truck. Suddenly, an old man rushed out from behind the counter and started frantically waving him over. ‘What’s wrong?’ asked the puzzled driver. The old man pointed towards a box labeled ‘Super Glue #9000’ and whispered, ‘It’s supposed to be clear, not neon pink!’ They both burst into laughter, and the delivery guy left with a newfound respect for nail supply stores.
4. In an ordinary day at Big 5 Nail Supply, a delivery driver parked his truck and walked inside for a quick break. As he reached for a coffee cup on the counter, something caught his eye—a small wooden box, neatly wrapped in brown paper, sitting among the nail polish bottles. The delivery driver picked up the box curiously. Inside was a handwritten note saying, ‘For your nails—with love from a neighbor.’ He laughed, thinking it must be some prank, but decided to try it anyway. The next week, everyone in town started receiving similar packages with messages like, ‘Your nails deserve a break today,’ signed simply, ‘Big 5 Mystery Sender.’
