About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was just another day at Schnucks when an old lady started checking out her groceries with the cashier. But something strange happened—every time she paid for her items, they mysteriously disappeared from her basket. Finally, after much confusion and laughter, it turned out that the cash register had a glitch, making it look like everything vanished into thin air. The old lady ended up leaving with all her groceries, happily chatting with a nearby delivery driver about how magical her shopping trip was.
2. At midnight, while the night manager was restocking shelves, he heard a faint humming coming from the frozen foods aisle. Curious, he approached only to discover a delivery driver dozing off with the truck's engine running. As he gently nudged the driver awake, they both jumped when the freezer door swung open slightly. The delivery guy muttered something about his coffee being cold and quickly jumped out of the cab, leaving the manager standing there, half-amused, half-wondering if it was wise to leave such an exhausted person behind the wheel.
3. At dawn, as the first shoppers arrived, a voice crackled over Schnucks’ PA system: ‘Attention customers—if you see anyone wearing a red apron and carrying a basket of bananas, please alert security.’ As the day went on, more and more people reported seeing the mysterious figure. Finally, an elderly lady approached the manager and whispered, 'I saw him too—he was buying nothing but bananas!' Turns out it was just their new delivery driver, trying to blend in with his banana-themed lunchbox. Everyone had a good laugh, and Schnucks became known for its friendly—and slightly eccentric—banana-loving employee.
4. At closing time, as the last cashier locked up, she heard a soft whisper behind her: ‘Don’t forget to check the freezer.’ Curious, she turned around and saw only empty aisles. Then, from the corner of her eye, she caught movement near the frozen yogurt section. Peering closer, she found an old carton of expired ice cream winking back at her with a mischievous smile. Shaking her head, she muttered, 'You’re welcome next time, Schnucks ghost.'
