About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the back door of Grocery Outlet. As he unloaded boxes, he noticed something strange: every fifth can of beans had an extra label, reading ‘lucky charm.’ Nobody else seemed to notice. Curious, the driver decided to check other items—every fifth jar of pickles said ‘magic wand,’ and even some cans of corn carried labels reading ‘good luck charm!’ By morning, everyone in town knew about it, and customers started buying those special cans for good fortune. Turned out, it was just a prank by a regular who loved practical jokes.
2. One morning, a regular asked the cashier, ‘Why does everything in your store seem cheaper than it should be?’ The cashier smiled mysteriously and replied, ‘That’s because some items are actually from next week.’ A few days later, a delivery driver noticed an unusual sight—a cart filled with expired produce heading towards the dumpster. Curious, he followed the cashier who calmly said, 'Just putting last week's apples where they belong.' Everyone laughed, realizing that sometimes even supermarkets have their own version of time travel.
3. One day, an elderly gentleman approached the checkout counter and asked the cashier, 'Why do you always ask if I’m buying groceries for myself or someone else?' The cashier smiled and replied, 'Sir, it’s just our policy.' But ever since then, every customer has been left wondering—who exactly is that mysterious ‘someone else’? Then one day, a delivery driver joked, ‘Hey, maybe he’s shopping for his long-lost twin!’ And from that moment on, whenever anyone asked who the mysterious “someone else” was, everyone would laugh and say, ‘Who knows? Maybe he’s just trying to avoid paying taxes on his secret inheritance.’
4. In the early hours of the morning, a delivery driver was unloading crates into the Grocery Outlet warehouse when he stumbled upon something peculiar. Among the boxes of cereal and canned goods lay a small, dusty teddy bear with a tag that read, ‘Free to Good Home.’ Curious, the driver picked it up and noticed an old note inside: 'Found in aisle 7.' He laughed, thinking maybe someone had accidentally left it there during their late-night shopping spree. That night, the teddy bear became the store’s unofficial mascot, greeting customers with a cheery wave from its perch on the checkout counter.
