About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as customers were stocking up on groceries, an announcement crackled over Safeway’s intercom: ‘Attention shoppers—we’ve just received a shipment of invisible bananas. Please be careful not to run into them!’ A regular customer, Mr. Thompson, decided to help by holding up a sign that read: 'Invisible Bananas Ahead!' Soon, everyone was laughing and taking photos. Even the delivery driver joked that next time he’d bring invisible eggs too. By lunchtime, Safeway had sold out of everything else—and the invisible bananas became a neighborhood legend.
2. One day in Safeway's produce section, a customer asked aloud: 'Why does every banana here look like it’s smiling?' A nearby delivery driver overheard and replied, ‘Oh, those aren’t smiles—those are their natural curves!’ A regular customer chimed in with a twinkle in his eye, ‘Maybe they’re just happy bananas celebrating being picked fresh today.’ And so, ever since then, whenever someone asks about Safeway’s bananas, everyone jokes that they’re part of an exclusive smiley-fruit club.
3. In Safeway’s dairy aisle one afternoon, a regular exclaimed, ‘I just saw milk talking to cheese!’ The cashier overheard and asked curiously, ‘Did it say something smart?’ The regular nodded, grinning. Just then, a delivery driver walked in, looked around, and said, “Hey, I heard Safeway’s milk is talking today!” Everyone burst out laughing, realizing they were all talking about nothing more than some friendly banter between dairy products.
4. In Safeway’s frozen foods aisle, a delivery driver stopped mid-unload and swore he heard a box of penguins laughing. Curious, he opened one box—and out popped a tiny penguin in a Santa hat, waving gleefully. The other boxes were filled with nothing but colorful packaging. A nearby employee laughed, explaining it was part of their holiday promotion. The delivery driver shook his head, smiling, thinking, ‘Next time I’ll check the labels before unloading.’
