About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when Safeway closed its doors, a soft humming began to fill the empty aisles. A regular noticed it first, pushing his shopping cart down an aisle of quietly glowing shelves. Curious, he followed the sound until he found himself in the dairy section, where bottles of milk seemed to gently sway as if dancing to some unheard melody. Just then, a delivery driver appeared, muttering under his breath, ‘Must be those new LED lights playing tricks on us.’ The regular laughed and shook his head, realizing that sometimes even supermarkets can surprise you with their own brand of magic.
2. In the early morning hours, before Safeway opened, a delivery driver noticed something odd in one of the shopping carts. A small, colorful bird had somehow managed to get into the store and now sat perched on an empty bottle of olive oil. The delivery driver gently picked up the bird and placed it outside near some bushes. Later that day, a regular customer saw the same bird pecking at seeds in front of Safeway’s entrance. Smiling, she whispered, ‘Looks like our little friend found a new home!’
3. Late one night, as a security guard patrolled Safeway's empty aisles, he heard a faint rustling sound coming from the produce section. Curious, he approached and saw only a banana slowly swaying on its stand. ‘Who’s playing pranks here?’ muttered the guard. Suddenly, an apple rolled past his feet and whispered, “It’s just us, sir—we’re trying to escape!” The guard laughed, shook his head, and went back to his patrol, thinking Safeway might be more lively than he imagined.
4. In the dead of winter, when Safeway’s parking lot was blanketed in snow, a strange phenomenon occurred. Every midnight, an old shopping cart would appear, neatly parked near the entrance. No one knew where it came from or who left it there. One day, a delivery driver noticed the cart and decided to follow its path. It led him through the deserted streets until he found himself outside an elderly neighbor's house. The neighbor, wearing her warmest sweater, pushed the cart back inside with a smile, saying she’d forgotten it there after an evening stroll. From then on, Safeway became known for its magical midnight helper, and everyone laughed when they saw the cart each night.
