About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when Safeway’s fluorescent lights were the only light in town, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar: an old shopping cart slowly rolling down the aisles, filling itself with cans of beans and boxes of cereal. Curious but cautious, he followed it until it stopped near the dairy section. To his surprise, the cart was filled with nothing but free samples—milk, cheese, yogurt. Turns out, someone had rigged up a clever prank to lure employees into sampling everything on sale. The next morning, Safeway was buzzing with laughter as everyone shared their stories.
2. Late one night, as Safeway's security cameras watched over empty aisles, a delivery truck arrived with its engine humming like an old-time jukebox. The sound echoed through the store, drawing curious glances from nearby neighbors. The doors opened slowly, and out stepped a delivery driver whistling an old folk tune. He wheeled in crates marked ‘fresh produce’, but when he reached for his keys, they were nowhere to be found. After a minute of frantic searching, everyone heard a soft voice from behind: ‘Maybe you left them in your truck?’ It was just a regular neighbor, stopping by on her way home.
3. Late one night, as Safeway’s security cameras scanned empty aisles, a familiar voice whispered from the frozen foods section. ‘I’m running out of milk,’ said no one. Suddenly, an elderly gentleman appeared behind the cheese counter. 'Did anyone order extra yogurt?' he asked, scratching his head. The whispering grew louder, and everyone looked around, only to realize it was just the store's soundproof ventilation system. A relieved laugh echoed through the aisles, and a delivery driver quipped, “Guess Safeway has its own ghost shopper!”
4. In the early morning hours, before anyone else was awake, a faint humming could be heard coming from inside Safeway’s empty aisles. A curious neighbor passing by stopped to investigate and found no one but rows of silent shelves—and yet, the humming persisted. Curious, the neighbor decided to follow the sound deeper into the store. Suddenly, an old delivery driver emerged from behind some crates, rubbing his eyes and muttering something about ‘another late-night snack run gone wrong.’ The humming turned out to be nothing more than an ancient fridge left on by accident.
