About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Harris Teeter, every Wednesday around sunset, an old man with a shopping cart full of bananas would appear. The cashiers never failed to notice how his eyes sparkled when he counted them aloud. One week, a delivery driver asked him jokingly, ‘Do you eat all those bananas yourself?’ With a twinkle in his eye, the old man replied, ‘No, sonny, I just like seeing the checkout girls smile.’ Everyone laughed, and from that day on, Harris Teeter’s Wednesdays became even more cheerful.
2. At Harris Teeter, late one night after closing, a delivery driver swears he heard soft laughter echoing through the empty aisles. Curious, the driver followed the sound deeper into the store. Suddenly, he spotted a small cart pushing itself down an aisle, filled with glowing bananas and sparkling apples. Startled, he called out, ‘Who’s there?’ A voice replied softly from behind him, ‘Just helping myself to some healthy snacks, neighbor!’
3. At Harris Teeter, on foggy mornings when everyone else is rushing in for breakfast items, someone leaves a mysterious basket filled with freshly baked pastries right outside the entrance. One day, a delivery driver left an extra large crate of croissants instead of milk. When employees opened it, they found not just croissants but also donuts, muffins, and even a note saying, ‘Enjoy your morning!’ Turned out, it was a prank from a neighbor who wanted everyone to start their day with a smile.
4. At Harris Teeter, some say you can hear classical music playing on Sunday evenings, but only if you're standing near the cheese aisle. One evening, a delivery driver swears he saw an old lady pushing a shopping cart filled with nothing but empty bottles of wine—only it happened every Sunday at exactly 8 PM. Another rumor claims that if you whisper your favorite song in the produce section, it will be played over the speakers later that night. But nobody’s ever dared try it.
