About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as customers were browsing through aisles filled with familiar groceries, an unexpected announcement echoed over Fry’s intercom: ‘Attention shoppers! The store is now officially out of everything except for one item—tomatoes.’ A puzzled regular stopped mid-cart and muttered, ‘That can’t be right…’ Soon enough, a delivery driver arrived with just one crate of tomatoes, causing chaos in the checkout lanes. As people queued up, a neighbor joked, 'At least we won’t starve!' Finally, after much confusion, the manager announced: 'It was a mistake—they meant to say “bananas,” not “tomatoes.”' Everyone laughed and went home with their usual groceries.
2. One day, while stocking shelves in Fry’s, a young employee noticed something strange—every time he placed boxes of cereal on the top shelf, they mysteriously disappeared before anyone could buy them. Curious, he followed the trail of empty cereal boxes until one day he found an elderly gentleman secretly restocking the shelves from behind a carton display. Turns out, the old guy was just making sure his favorite breakfast treat never went out of stock. Everyone had a good laugh over it, and now, whenever someone sees him around the store, they teasingly ask if he still works for free.
3. One afternoon, while restocking the dairy section, a delivery driver noticed that every time he placed milk boxes on the top shelf, they mysteriously ended up at eye level by closing time. Curious, he followed the milk one day and found an old lady gently rearranging items throughout the store. Turned out she was just helping customers find what they needed. By the end of the week, she became a regular volunteer, making Fry’s not only efficient but also friendly.
4. One night, after closing hours, a security guard patrolling the aisles heard a faint voice over the store’s intercom: ‘Please return your shopping carts to their designated spots.’ Curious, he followed the voice until it led him to an empty aisle near the dairy section. There, behind a shelf of milk cartons, stood an old shopping cart, wobbling slightly as if trying to balance itself. The guard smiled, shook his head, and pushed the cart back into place. Later that week, a delivery driver mentioned seeing an elderly gentleman helping customers with groceries—turns out, it was just Fry’s friendly ghost, making sure everything stayed tidy.
