About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while stocking shelves, a Lidl employee noticed something peculiar in an empty produce bin—a small, wrapped package with no label or markings. Curious, she opened it to find…nothing inside. Since then, employees claim they’ve seen glimpses of strange items appearing and disappearing from various aisles late at night. One evening, after closing time, a delivery driver heard whispers coming from the dairy section. Curious, he peeked inside and found only milk bottles—until he noticed one carton had mysteriously changed brands mid-night. The next day, everyone agreed it must be the ghost of a long-forgotten intern who loved trying new products.

2. While restocking the produce section one night, a delivery driver swore he saw a ghostly figure reaching for apples. "Did you see that?" he asked his colleague, pointing towards an empty shelf. His colleague shrugged and replied, ‘Probably just an apple spirit.’ They both laughed it off, but later that evening, while checking out with a neighbor, they joked about how Lidl’s might be haunted by fruit specters. The neighbor nodded knowingly and said, ‘That explains why their bananas always look so happy!’

3. Late one night, as the cashier was wrapping up her shift, she heard an odd announcement over the store’s PA system: ‘Attention, shoppers! The last can of beans is calling for its long-lost twin.’ Curious, she looked around but saw no one. Then, from behind a shelf, a small voice whispered, 'Help me find my twin!' A nearby delivery driver leaned in and said, 'I think that can's been calling out for years.' Everyone laughed, and the cashier realized it was just another late-night Lidl adventure.

4. In the early hours of the morning, a security guard patrolling the parking lot of Lidl noticed something odd. A small dog kept barking frantically at an empty shopping cart, as if it were following some invisible trail. Curious, the guard approached and saw nothing but an ordinary shopping cart. Just then, another customer arrived—an elderly lady who’d left her cart behind earlier. She laughed and said, ‘Oh that little fellow’s been chasing my cart for half an hour now! I guess he thought it was mine.’ The guard smiled, shook his head, and went back to his rounds, thinking that sometimes even supermarkets have their own unique characters.
