About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Asda’s loading dock and noticed an eerie humming sound coming from inside. Curious but cautious, he opened the door just enough for a whiff of something sweetly strange—like old bread mixed with distant music. Peeking inside, he saw rows upon rows of shelves, each filled with glowing boxes of cereal, their colors dancing like fireflies. Suddenly, a nearby aisle erupted in applause—a regular clapping his hands together. The delivery driver blinked, then realized it was only the sound of cookies crumbling off a shelf. With a smile, he left, never mentioning what he’d seen.

2. One night, a neighborhood kid sneaked into Asda's parking lot to pull pranks on cars. When he tried to hide behind one of the shopping carts, it mysteriously started honking its horn. Just then, an old delivery driver walked by and asked what was going on. The kid panicked but quickly made up a story about a mischievous ghost cart. The driver laughed heartily and said, ‘Son, that’s just Ol’ Benny—he loves to scare kids.’ And with that, they both went inside for some late-night snacks.

3. In the early hours of dawn, a security guard patrolling Asda heard an eerie humming sound coming from the refrigerated aisles. Curious but cautious, he approached only to discover rows upon rows of silent shelves, as if the entire store had fallen asleep. Just then, a delivery driver walked in and asked if everything was okay. The guard pointed towards the empty shelves, and together they tried to find the source of the noise. Turns out, it was just the new energy-saving lights playing tricks on them both—an Asda first, indeed!

4. Late one stormy night, a delivery driver pulled up to Asda’s loading dock and found something peculiar: boxes stacked in shapes that looked like they were forming secret messages. Curious, he leaned closer, thinking it might be a promotional stunt. Suddenly, one box fell over, revealing a note that read: ‘Please help yourself—we’re having a sale!’ Turns out, it was just a neighbor organizing an impromptu clearance event.
