About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day in Publix’s produce section, a regular asked aloud: ‘Did you see that watermelon just moved on its own?’ A nearby delivery driver overheard and chuckled: ‘That’s no ordinary melon—must be from Georgia!’ The regular smiled, shaking his head. That night, everyone in town talked about the dancing watermelon from Publix, making it the talk of the neighborhood for weeks.
2. In one corner of Publix's dairy aisle, a regular noticed something odd nestled among the milk cartons. It looked like an ordinary plastic egg, but when he picked it up, it chirped softly. Curious, he showed it to his neighbor who happened to be a delivery driver. Turns out, it was just an old egg timer from the store’s stockroom that got mixed in with the eggs. They laughed it off, and ever since then, whenever someone sees a ‘chirping egg,’ they know it’s time for a good laugh—and maybe some fresh milk.
3. In the early hours of morning, a delivery driver parked outside Publix and heard an eerie humming coming from inside the store. Curious, he cracked open the door just enough for a peek—and found rows upon rows of cans whispering softly to each other. Suddenly, one can twirled around and pointed its label right at him, saying ‘Scan me!’ The delivery driver burst out laughing and scanned every can in sight—only to discover they were all on sale that day. From then on, locals joked that Publix had a secret department where cans discussed discounts.
4. In the frozen food aisle, a regular stopped mid-browsing and whispered, 'I’m pretty sure I saw that box move.' A delivery driver then calmly checked the box’s barcode, muttering, ‘It’s just moving with the freezer’s vibration.’ Everyone laughed nervously, but the regular insisted on buying the box as a souvenir. Now, whenever someone asks if Publix ghosts exist, they proudly show it off, claiming it’s their lucky charm.
