About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One evening, a regular noticed an old lady pushing a shopping cart filled with Walmarts' best-selling items—only she wasn’t checking out. She’d circle the same aisle three times before moving on, always stopping near the canned soup section. Finally, one day, a delivery driver asked her why she kept circling. With a twinkle in her eye, she whispered, ‘I’m testing your customer service for next year’s review!’ Everyone burst into laughter, and from then on, she became known as Walmart’s secret shopper.
2. One morning, a delivery driver was unloading boxes when he heard a familiar voice behind him. ‘Excuse me, young man,’ said an elderly gentleman in a tweed suit, ‘could you please tell me where I might find the self-checkout aisle?’ The delivery driver turned around with a smile and pointed towards the far end of the store. 'Right over there,' he said cheerfully. The old gentleman nodded gratefully, but then suddenly reached into his pocket and pulled out a shiny silver whistle. Startled, the driver asked, "What’s that for?" With a twinkle in his eye, the gentleman replied, 'Just in case I get lost again!' They both laughed, and from that day on, whenever anyone saw an elderly man whistling while pushing a shopping cart through Walmart, they knew exactly why.
3. One night, while stocking shelves late after hours, a worker heard whispers coming from the frozen food aisle. Curious, they investigated and found nothing unusual—until the next day when several packages of ice cream were mysteriously rearranged. Soon enough, everyone in the store started noticing strange things happening around midnight. One night, a regular customer found his groceries neatly organized by expiration date—and free of charge! It turned out that every evening, an anonymous helper was hard at work making Walmart’s Supercenter even more efficient. The legend spread quickly among locals, who began leaving little notes of thanks near the checkout counters.
4. One afternoon, a cashier noticed that every fifth customer bought exactly five items and left without saying a word. No one seemed to notice but her. Over time, she started keeping track of these silent shoppers. One day, an elderly neighbor walked in, picked up five cans of beans, and quietly left. Smiling, the cashier whispered, 'Must be some new Walmart tradition—five items for five dollars!'
