About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk, a regular pushed his shopping cart into the nearly empty aisle. Suddenly, his little daughter pointed excitedly: ‘Papa, look!’ A bright orange glow seemed to hover above one of the shelves. The father squinted, rubbed his eyes, then laughed as he realized it was just an old can of mandarin oranges reflecting the sunset light through the window. The girl giggled and said, 'But Papa, they do look like little suns!' They both picked up some groceries, and walked out, leaving behind only their laughter—and maybe a few curious neighbors who wondered if there really were magical glowing cans.
2. At closing time, an employee locked up and headed for the exit. As he passed the dairy section, he heard something odd—a low humming sound coming from one of the refrigerators. Curious, he approached the fridge and peered inside—nothing but milk and cheese. But then he noticed a small hole in the corner, just big enough for a mouse. With a smile, he realized it was probably an old refrigerator, haunted only by tiny rodents. On his way out, he joked, ‘Guess tonight’s milk came with a little surprise!’
3. One morning, a delivery driver arrived early with a mysterious box marked ‘top secret.’ Curious neighbors peered through their windows as he struggled to carry it inside. As he opened the door, an enormous yawn escaped from within, startling everyone present. It was just a very sleepy parrot that had been mistaken for top-secret cargo. The neighbors laughed heartily, and from that day on, La Superior Mercados became known as the store where even feathered deliveries arrive early.
4. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet, a neighbor noticed something odd. A lone shopping cart slowly rolled down the empty aisles, its wheels clicking softly in the dim light. Curious, the neighbor followed the cart and found an exhausted delivery driver dozing off nearby. Turns out, he’d accidentally locked himself out of the store after hours, so the cart became his makeshift taxi back inside. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh over coffee, and nobody mentioned it again until the driver forgot his keys once more.
