About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the aisles of Stater Bros., a little girl pointed and whispered, ‘Mama, why do those apples look like they’re dancing?’ Her mother smiled and gently replied, ‘Honey, it’s just the way the light bounces off them.’ Suddenly, an old man in line chuckled and said, “They ain’t dancing, child—just trying to get outta here!” Everyone laughed, and the little girl giggled, happily oblivious to the humour behind her observation.
2. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet, an elderly man began arriving at Stater Bros. with a peculiar routine. He’d wheel his shopping cart down every aisle, stopping only briefly before moving on without picking anything up. One day, a delivery driver noticed him and asked, ‘Sir, do you need some help?’ The old man replied, ‘No thank you, sonny. I’m just here for the atmosphere.’ As he walked out, he waved goodbye and said, ‘See ya’ later, Stater Bros., see ya’ later!’ And ever since then, everyone knows that early mornings at Stater Bros. feel a little less lonely.
3. At night, after closing hours, a delivery driver noticed strange lights flickering in the dairy section. Curious, he approached only to see a shadowy figure rearranging milk cartons. Curious, he followed the shadow, but when he turned around, it was just an old lady restocking shelves with her own carton of milk. She smiled and said, ‘I always do it this way—it helps the milk stay fresh longer.’ The delivery driver shook his head and chuckled, thinking, ‘next time I’ll believe my eyes before my brain cooks up something strange!’
4. At midnight, as the last cashier clocked out, a voice crackled over the intercom: 'And remember, always check your shopping cart before leaving!' The next morning, an elderly neighbor was pushing her cart down the aisle when she heard something rustling inside. Out popped a bag of groceries that had been left overnight—complete with a note reading, ‘Forgot these in your cart!’ A regular customer chuckled and said, ‘Guess Stater Bros. has its own night shift now.’
