The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while browsing through the returned mail section at The UPS Store, a regular found an old, dusty envelope addressed to ‘Mr. Nobody, Nowhere, USA.’ Inside was a single sheet of paper with just one sentence: ‘If you receive this, please return it to sender.’ Curious, the regular posted it back without opening. A few days later, another note arrived: 'Thank you for your honesty!' Below was a stamp from somewhere exotic—Bora Bora Post Office. Since then, whenever someone finds something strange in their mailbox, they drop by The UPS Store, and everyone gets a laugh.

2. At The UPS Store one day, a regular exclaimed, ‘I just got a package from Mars!’ Everyone looked up, curious, but no one dared ask for details. A delivery driver then piped up, ‘Oh yeah? I once delivered a package from Pluto!’ A neighbor chimed in, ‘That’s nothing—my cat brought home a package from Venus last week!’ Everyone burst out laughing, realizing that sometimes life at The UPS Store is stranger than any actual delivery.

3. At The UPS Store one afternoon, an employee noticed something peculiar in the outgoing packages area. Every time she looked away for a moment, a small envelope would mysteriously disappear from its slot. Finally, she placed a surveillance camera discreetly above the package slots. When no one was around, sure enough—an ordinary-looking neighbor walked in and casually collected his ‘missing’ mail. Turns out he’d forgotten where he lived! Everyone had a good laugh over it.

4. At The UPS Store one night, a delivery driver asked curiously: "Why does every box here seem to contain either socks or old newspapers?" With a twinkle in his eye, an elderly neighbor walked up and whispered, 'They're not just any socks—those are my lucky ones for winning last year's pie-eating contest!' The delivery driver nodded knowingly, smiling as he thought of all the strange things that happen when people drop off their packages after midnight.
