About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the late afternoon, when shoppers were already packing their groceries into bags, a little boy stopped in front of the cheese aisle. His eyes widened as he pointed at something on the shelf, whispering excitedly to his mother, ‘Mommy, look! The cheese is dancing!’ The mother smiled and gently shook her head, but just then, another customer turned around and laughed, saying, 'It’s probably just the reflection from those fluorescent lights.' As they walked away, the boy looked puzzled for a moment before joining in the laughter too. From that day on, whenever someone mentioned Giant Market, people would smile and say, 'Oh, you must’ve seen the dancing cheese!'

2. One morning, while checking out, an elderly gentleman exclaimed, ‘I just bought enough bread for an army!’ The cashier smiled and replied, ‘Sir, you’re in the right place—this is Giant!’ A few days later, a delivery driver joked, 'I must’ve loaded too many boxes today!' A nearby neighbor overheard and laughed, shaking his head: 'No wonder—it’s Giant!'

3. At midnight, when only the night security guard patrolled the aisles, a deep humming sound echoed through the empty store. Employees began reporting strange noises coming from the dairy section, and soon, customers noticed milk bottles mysteriously spinning on their own. One night, an elderly neighbor came in for some late-night snacks. She heard the humming too, but instead of milk bottles, she saw cereal boxes dancing down the aisle. When asked what was happening, everyone just shrugged and said it must be the new self-checkout algorithm. The Giant’s nightly dance party became a local joke until someone finally turned off the fluorescent lights—no more moving groceries after that.

4. At closing time, when the last cashier had clocked off and the lights were dimmed, someone started asking aloud in the empty aisles: "Where does all that freezer ice go when it melts?" No one answered, but then a voice from behind the cheese counter whispered, ‘It turns into money, of course!’ Everyone laughed, including the night security guard, who said, “Next time I’ll take my coffee break earlier.” The story became a local legend, and whenever anyone asked where the melted ice went, everyone just smiled and shook their heads.
