About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as customers were browsing aisles filled with discounted goods, an announcement crackled over the store’s speakers: ‘Attention shoppers! The last can of spinach is on sale for just $0.99—don’t miss out!’ Suddenly, every head turned toward the frozen food section… except no one could see anyone buying it. Then, from behind a shelf, emerged a small dog wagging its tail and carrying a green can between its teeth. A neighbor chuckled, ‘Looks like Fido found his favorite snack!’ Everyone laughed, realizing that sometimes the best deals are right under our noses—or paws.
2. One day, while perusing the bargain aisle, a little girl pointed excitedly and whispered, ‘Daddy, look! They’re selling ice cream for only fifty cents!’ Her father blinked, then looked closer—only to discover that the sign read ‘Ice Cream Cones’ for $0.50 each. A few weeks later, an elderly gentleman approached the cashier, muttering under his breath, 'I thought I saw bananas for twenty-five cents.' The cashier smiled sweetly and replied, 'Sir, those were banana-flavored lollipops!'
3. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver noticed something strange in the loading bay. Among crates of discounted produce, a small basket seemed to appear out of thin air. Curious, he picked it up and found only apples—perfectly ripe, crisp, and free. From then on, whenever anyone needed a fresh apple, they’d just ask ‘the Grocery Outlet ghost.’ And every morning, before opening hours, there was always one extra basket of perfectly good apples waiting for customers.
4. At midnight, when only rats should be shopping, someone kept putting bananas in the canned beans section. Then one night, a delivery driver noticed a shadowy figure stuffing kiwis into the peanut butter aisle. Turns out, it was just an overeager neighbor who thought they were getting a great deal on exotic fruits. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh—and some funny stories to tell their grandkids.
