About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Smith’s Supermarket, every Wednesday night around closing time, an old lady would quietly place a basket filled with fresh-baked cookies on the checkout counter. No one knew who she was or where she came from—just that her smile and the cookies always made the cashiers’ days brighter. One Wednesday evening, as usual, an old lady appeared with her basket of cookies. The cashier, Mr. Jenkins, noticed something unusual—a small note attached read: 'For your hard work, enjoy!' Below it was scribbled, 'PS: If you ever figure out my secret identity, please don’t tell anyone.' Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe the real mystery wasn’t who she was but why they looked forward to seeing her each week.
2. At Smith’s Supermarket, one day after hours, a young boy noticed something peculiar: every time he walked past the empty aisles late at night, the shelves seemed to rearrange themselves just slightly before his eyes. One evening, a delivery driver mentioned it jokingly to a neighbor, who swore she’d seen boxes of cereal floating mid-air once. Soon enough, everyone in town had their own story—some claimed they heard whispers from the frozen foods section or saw cans dancing on the shelves. Eventually, an old lady insisted that Mr. Smith himself was still watching over his store, ensuring everything stayed neatly organized. And so, Smith’s became not just a grocery store but a quirky legend where people went for both groceries and good-natured tales.
3. At Smith’s Supermarket, late one Friday afternoon, a delivery driver found himself locked inside when the doors automatically shut. He tried calling for help but heard only eerie silence in response. Suddenly, he noticed an old carton of milk on the shelf that seemed to move ever so slightly. Thinking it was his imagination playing tricks, he shrugged and decided to wait until morning. To his relief, the next day everyone joked about how he spent the night stocking shelves—and nobody believed him anyway. The end.
4. At Smith’s Supermarket, one morning before opening, a security guard discovered that the store’s PA system had played a recording of a customer yelling ‘Sale on bananas!’ over and over again for three hours straight. As it turned out, no bananas were actually on sale—just an old tape left behind by a delivery driver. The whole town ended up laughing when they heard the story, especially when a regular customer insisted he’d seen the ‘banana man’ pushing a cart full of fruit down the aisle.
