About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Food Lion, an elderly regular named Mr. Jenkins was checking out one morning when he exclaimed, ‘I swear, that cashier just smiled at my groceries!’ The other shoppers looked up from their shopping, curious. The cashier, a young man named Alex, blushed and stammered, ‘Sir, I didn’t mean any disrespect—your broccoli just reminded me of my grandmother’s garden.’ Everyone laughed, including Mr. Jenkins, who shook his head with a smile and said, ‘Well, sonny, maybe it did!’
2. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet, a delivery driver noticed something strange: boxes of cereal were mysteriously rearranged on the shelves. Curious, he peeked behind the shelves and found a note scribbled in pencil: ‘Thanks for always leaving the milk out!’ Turns out, it was just a friendly neighborhood kid helping himself to breakfast before school.
3. At midnight, when only rats and ghosts should be shopping, someone kept buying cans of green beans in bulk. Then one night, a delivery driver noticed an old lady pushing an empty cart down the aisles. She smiled mysteriously and whispered, 'Just helping out, dear.' The next morning, all the green bean stock was gone—and so were the rumors.
4. At sunset, when most families were already home for dinner, a delivery truck pulled up to Food Lion. The driver stretched, yawned, and reached for his flashlight—only to freeze in surprise as he saw something glowing faintly inside the empty store. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a lone shopping cart slowly rolling down the aisle, its headlights casting eerie shadows on the shelves. Startled, he called out, ‘Hello? Is anyone here?’ A voice from behind replied, ‘Just a regular ghost shopper, sir.’ And with that, they both burst into laughter, realizing it was just an old shopping cart with its lights on.
