About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At ShopRite, every Wednesday around sunset, an old man would push his shopping cart down the aisles, humming softly to himself. One day, a little boy noticed that whenever he passed the canned soup section, his dog started wagging its tail uncontrollably. Finally, someone asked the old man why his dog reacted like that. With a twinkle in his eye, he replied, ‘Oh, that’s just my secret ingredient for happiness.’ Turns out, he was sprinkling a pinch of dried basil from the herb aisle onto his groceries before checkout.
2. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar outside ShopRite. Every morning, right before opening, a mysterious figure in a long coat would appear and rearrange the parking lot cones. Curious, the driver followed him one day and saw that each cone was meticulously placed in a pattern resembling an old-fashioned Russian matryoshka doll. Word spread among locals, and soon enough, every morning after opening, neighbors gathered to watch the enigmatic figure work his magic. Some even brought their own cones as if attending a friendly neighborhood ritual.
3. At midnight, while everyone else was asleep, a ShopRite employee heard a voice whispering from the frozen food aisle. "Need some help finding that elusive ice cream?", it asked. Curious, the worker followed the voice and found an old carton of expired ice cream half-hidden behind the shelves. ‘It’s been calling me for weeks,’ whispered the carton. The employee laughed and took both the carton and the story back to the stockroom, where they became an office joke among the staff—especially when a delivery driver later brought in a fresh batch of exactly the same flavor.
4. At midnight, while everyone else was asleep, a ShopRite employee swore he saw a shadowy figure pushing a shopping cart down the aisles. The next morning, colleagues found fresh bread crumbs leading from the dairy section to the frozen foods. Soon after, another worker claimed they heard soft laughter coming from the produce section late one night. When security checked, they found nothing but an empty cart and a lone banana peel. To this day, some customers still spot a friendly ghostly face waving from behind the apples—especially around Halloween.
