About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular asked the cashier, ‘Do you ever notice how Hannaford’s milk always seems to be smiling back at me from the shelves?’ The cashier smiled and replied, ‘Maybe it’s because our dairy supplier has a great sense of humor!’ Just then, a delivery driver walked in, holding a crate with a big smiley face drawn on it. ‘That must be why,’ said the regular, laughing, as he reached for another gallon.
2. A delivery driver pulled up to the loading dock one afternoon, frowning as he noticed something odd in the reflection of his truck's mirror. Curious, he peered into the mirror and saw a familiar face waving back—a neighbor who often shopped there. Turns out she had been standing near the window, admiring her reflection while waiting for her groceries.
3. One day, after school, a little girl noticed something odd in the Hannaford aisles—every time she passed the canned beans, her reflection in their shiny cans waved back at her. Curious, she followed the wave until she saw an old lady stocking shelves smile and nod. The next week, every time she visited Hannaford, the same woman waved from behind cans of beans. Turned out, it was just Mrs. Jenkins, a regular who loved waving at everyone.
4. One night, an employee heard a strange voice over the intercom: ‘Please return your shopping carts to the left, not the right.’ Everyone looked around, but no one was there. The next day, another worker found a small child’s toy in the empty aisle where the voice had come from. When they picked it up, the little plastic cart returned to its spot with a tiny ding. Everyone laughed, realizing it was just a mischievous kid playing a prank on them all.
