About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when QFC’s lights were off and everyone had gone home, a soft humming sound could be heard coming from the empty aisles. No one knew where it came from or why, but soon enough, customers started noticing it too. One night, a delivery driver thought he’d follow the humming to its source. He found himself standing in front of the dairy section, staring at an old milk carton that kept whispering, ‘Gotta go somewhere…’ Turns out, it was just an empty container playing tricks on an overactive imagination.
2. Late one Friday afternoon, as the QFC shelves were being restocked, an old delivery driver noticed something peculiar. The aisles seemed to shift ever so slightly whenever he wasn’t looking. Curious, he followed the shifting aisle and found himself facing a smiling can of beans, winking mischievously. Startled, the driver quickly straightened up—and realized everyone else was gone. Turning around, he saw his reflection in the polished floor tiles, grinning back at him. From that day on, locals claimed seeing a ghostly figure pushing a shopping cart through the empty store was just another QFC tradition.
3. Late one Sunday morning, while stocking the produce section, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in one of the crates: a small, handwritten note attached to a bunch of bananas. Curious, he pulled it out and read: ‘To QFC employee who loves their job—thank you for making our city great.’ Below was an envelope with some cash inside. Turns out, a regular customer had been dropping these notes anonymously for months, always accompanied by a banana bunch and a smile. The store manager called it the ‘Banana Blessing.’
4. Late one Monday morning, while stocking the dairy aisle, a delivery driver swore he heard someone laughing in the empty store. The sound was faint but unmistakably human. Curious, he followed the sound to an empty shelf, where an old carton of milk seemed to be smiling back at him. After a moment’s pause, he realized it was just the sun streaming through the windows, dancing on the plastic packaging. Shaking his head with a smile, he went back to work—swearing that from then on, QFC had the best sense of humor.
