About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as a regular pushed his shopping cart down the aisle, he stopped abruptly, his eyes wide with surprise. From the frozen food section came an unusual sound—a deep, throaty hum that seemed to vibrate through the entire store. Curious, the man followed the noise to the back of the freezer where a delivery driver was adjusting some new refrigeration equipment. ‘What in the world is that?’ asked the customer, pointing to the strange humming machine. The driver grinned sheepishly and replied, “Oh, that’s just our latest model—it’s supposed to make that sound when it’s working right.” The regular shook his head and muttered, “Next time I’ll shop somewhere quieter,” before pushing off with a smile.
2. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Harris Teeter with an unusual load. ‘What’s that?’ asked a curious neighbor, pointing at the back of the truck. The driver smiled and said, 'Just some special orders from our local bakery.' The neighbor leaned in closer, whispering, 'I thought I saw a unicorn in there!' The driver laughed, shook his head, and drove off into the sunset—with a few extra boxes of pastries for good measure.
3. One day, while loading groceries into her car, a neighbor noticed something strange on the receipt: ‘Happy Birthday from Harris Teeter!’ The next week, another neighbor found their receipt had changed: 'Congratulations on your Promotion!' The manager later admitted it was just a glitch in the software, but everyone still smiled and joked that Harris Teeter must be keeping tabs on us all.
4. Have you heard about the time someone left their grocery list at Harris Teeter? It wasn’t just any list—it had detailed instructions for cooking a perfect Sunday dinner, but no name or phone number. Finally, an impatient neighbor barged into Harris Teeter asking if anyone had seen ‘their’ shopping list. The manager smiled and replied, 'We found it, sir—next to your car in the parking lot!'
