About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver was unloading crates of bananas when he noticed something peculiar. The bananas seemed to be moving on their own, swaying gently in the breeze as if they had lives of their own. Curious, the driver called out to his colleague, who came running over and laughed, saying it was just the banana gas making them move. They both shook their heads, shrugged it off, and moved on with their day. Years later, locals still joke that Fry’s Marketplace has the best ‘moving’ bananas around.
2. In the dairy aisle one day, an employee spotted something peculiar in a random milk carton: a tiny note that read, ‘Ask for directions at checkout.’ The manager chuckled and thought it was some prank until he saw another dozen cartons with similar notes. By the time they found the person who left those messages, everyone had a good laugh—turns out, a regular customer was just trying to get free samples without asking.
3. In the produce section one afternoon, a worker reached for a box of apples and found something odd nestled among the fruit. Among the apples he discovered an old, crumpled piece of paper with scribbled notes in pencil. Curious, he unfolded it—only to read a hastily written shopping list from some long-forgotten customer. The note ended with ‘bananas, please!’ and a doodle of a smiling banana. Everyone had a good laugh that day.
4. Late one night, as a cashier scanned groceries into the register, she caught a glimpse of something odd out of the corner of her eye. Curious, she turned around just in time to see an old man pushing a shopping cart filled with canned goods, wearing a huge smile and waving at her. ‘Gotta stock up on these before they run out!’ he exclaimed. The cashier laughed, realizing it was just another late-night Fry’s adventure.
