About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular was pushing his cart down the cereal aisle when he noticed something strange: a small dog kept following him, sniffing every box of Corn Flakes as if it were searching for treasure. Finally, the man reached the checkout counter, where an amused cashier asked what all the fuss was about. The dog, now wagging its tail happily, turned out to be the store’s newest mascot—a stray that had taken a fancy to Vons’ Corn Flakes. As word spread, neighbors started bringing their own boxes of cereal, thinking they’d found a secret shortcut to winning the animal’s affection.
2. At Vons grocery store, a regular was pushing his cart past the dairy section one afternoon when he noticed something odd. A small child, pointing excitedly, whispered to his mother, 'Mommy, look! The milk bottles are dancing!' The man stopped and watched for a moment, then asked gently, ‘Are you sure they’re dancing, or maybe they just… wobble a little?’ The boy nodded confidently, and the whole aisle burst out laughing. From that day on, whenever someone mentioned Vons, people would smile and say, ‘Oh, yeah—they’ve got dancing milk bottles!’
3. At Vons, an elderly gentleman was pushing his cart through the produce section when he exclaimed, ‘I haven’t seen such giant carrots since my grandson’s last visit!’ Just then, a young delivery driver walked by and overheard him. Smiling, he replied, 'Sir, these are just our organic carrots—nothing special.' The old man nodded thoughtfully before turning to his neighbor and whispering, 'Well, that explains why they taste like magic!'
4. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver was unloading crates of bananas in the backroom when he noticed something odd. The boxes seemed to be moving on their own. Curious, he followed the movement and found that one banana box had a small hole, letting out a stream of ants. Realizing his mistake, he laughed it off with a sigh, thinking, ‘Guess I’ll have to buy some ant traps next time.’
