The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the lights were off and everyone had gone home, an old man in a brown jacket would quietly enter The UPS Store. He’d grab a box from the shelf, write something on it, and leave without saying a word. One day, a delivery driver noticed him and decided to follow discreetly. Turned out, the old man was just writing his weekly grocery list—on boxes meant for packages! Everyone laughed when they saw him leaving with a cart full of groceries, but he never missed a beat, still wearing that same mysterious smile.

2. In the early morning hours, before anyone else arrived, a delivery driver noticed something strange. The doors of The UPS Store seemed to open on their own, revealing a faint humming sound that grew louder with each passing minute. Curious, the driver peered inside and saw only shelves of envelopes and boxes. Suddenly, an old man in a fedora emerged from behind a counter, adjusting his glasses and muttering, ‘Finally, someone here at eight o’clock.’ Turned out it was just a regular opening the store for the day—nothing supernatural after all.

3. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver noticed a small envelope taped to the door of The UPS Store. Curious, he opened it—and found himself staring at a handwritten note that read: ‘Today is your lucky day! Leave the first package you deliver here.’ Smiling, the driver placed the package inside and continued his route. Later that morning, as he approached a neighbor’s house, he realized he’d left his own keys in the store. With a laugh, he thought, ‘Guess I’ll be visiting The UPS Store more often now!’

4. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver noticed a small package addressed to ‘Santa’s Little Helper’. Curious, he opened it and found only a note saying, ‘Please deliver to our secret Santa.’ Inside was a tiny pair of mittens and a warm hat. The driver smiled, thinking how nice it would be if everyone had such thoughtful neighbors. That day, he decided to start his own annual tradition of delivering anonymous gifts during the holidays.
