About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At nightfall, an elderly gentleman entered Safeway with a basket full of groceries and a twinkle in his eye. As he approached the checkout counter, he noticed something peculiar: every time he paid for his items, the cashier gave him back exactly three cents more than due. Curious, he returned several times, always paying precisely what was owed. One evening, after ringing up his purchases, the cashier smiled and said, 'Sir, I’ve noticed you’re overpaying by three cents each visit.' The old man winked and replied, 'Just keeping my good karma stocked up!'
2. One morning, while a young boy waited for his mom at the checkout counter, he noticed something peculiar behind the pharmacist's desk—a small plastic dinosaur that seemed to move ever so slightly when no one was looking. Curious, the boy asked the pharmacist if it was real. With a twinkle in her eye, she replied, 'Just our little secret.' From then on, whenever anyone mentioned dinosaurs, the whole town would joke about Safeway’s moving reptile.
3. A delivery driver pulled up to Safeway one afternoon, his truck loaded with fresh produce. As he unloaded crates of apples, he noticed something peculiar—each apple had a tiny note attached, reading ‘To the person who will buy me next.’ Curious, the driver picked up an apple and read the note again. Suddenly, all the apples started whispering, ‘Choose me! Choose me!’ He laughed and decided to keep one as a souvenir. Months later, while unpacking groceries, his wife found it in their fruit bowl. She smiled, saying, ‘Look, honey, someone really wanted you to pick them today.’
4. In the early hours of dawn, a sleepy Safeway pharmacist unlocked the door. ‘I’ll be quick,’ he muttered, glancing at his watch. But as he reached for the light switch, something strange caught his eye. As he flicked on the lights, an old bottle of expired aspirin twirled off the shelf and landed with a dramatic thud. The pharmacist jumped back, then burst out laughing. 'Another day in paradise,' he said, picking up the bottle and shaking it gently. 'Guess I'll just leave that there—maybe someone will enjoy a good laugh.'
