Raley's

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At nightfall, an anonymous voice began whispering over Raley’s intercom: ‘Last one out of the store, please turn off the moonlight.’ Employees shrugged it off as a prank until customers started reporting eerie shadows in the aisles. Finally, after weeks of rumors, management installed motion sensors. At first, nothing happened—until one night when a regular pushing his cart down the cereal aisle saw a shadowy figure reaching for a box of Frosted Flakes. The sensor flashed on, and the voice crackled over the intercom: 'Only one can have the last Moonlight Cornflakes!' Everyone burst into laughter—and realized they were all standing in total darkness.

2. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet, a delivery driver noticed something odd: a shadowy figure in the aisles, rearranging cans with meticulous care. Curious, he followed the shadow and found an elderly gentleman carefully replacing expired items with fresh ones. Turns out, it was just a neighbor who shopped late at night and wanted everything organized for morning visits. The delivery driver chuckled, thinking, ‘Now that’s dedication!’

3. At closing time, a mysterious note appeared on Raley’s cash register: ‘Next customer gets free groceries—if they dare!’ A delivery driver was the first to take up the challenge and walked out with a cartload of goodies. The next day, an excited little old lady claimed her prize—and ever since then, Raley’s has had a special section for ‘daredevil discounts.’

4. After hours, when only the security lights illuminated the aisles, a shadowy figure started rearranging cans in the soup section. It turned out to be just an overzealous delivery driver straightening labels so customers could read them easier. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh and wondered if maybe Raley’s needed more friendly faces after hours.
