About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as customers were stocking up on groceries, an announcement came over the store’s PA: ‘Attention shoppers—if you see a flying blue shopping cart, do not panic, it belongs to our new self-driving technology demonstration!’ Soon enough, everyone in the store was watching intently for the elusive blue cart. A regular noticed it first, rolling down aisle three with its sensors whirring. People started taking photos and whispering excitedly. Then, just as someone reached out to pet it, the cart stopped abruptly, turned around, and zoomed back towards the produce section, picking apples along the way. The manager had to apologize later that day, explaining it was still in beta testing phase—and that no one should ever touch the demo equipment.
2. In the early hours of one Sunday morning, a delivery driver was unloading crates of fresh produce when he noticed something odd. Among the apples and oranges lay a small, perfectly wrapped package addressed to ‘The Manager.’ Curious, he opened it to find a note reading: ‘If you see this, Walmart’s prices are too high today.’ Smiling, the driver thought it was a prank from some local with a sense of humor. Later that day, as he passed through the checkout line, he overheard an elderly gentleman muttering to his wife, 'I wonder if they’ll lower the price on bananas tomorrow.'
3. At nightfall, a neighborhood watch volunteer was patrolling near the Walmart Neighborhood Market when he heard something strange coming from inside the loading bay. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only boxes being stacked neatly by a delivery driver. Turned out, it was just another late-night routine at the market. The next day, everyone joked that maybe the volunteer had finally caught the elusive ‘ghost of Walmart’—but no one believed him anymore.
4. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver was restocking shelves when he noticed something peculiar in the dairy section—a box of milk labeled ‘Expiration Date: Never’. Curious, the driver took it to his supervisor, who shrugged and said, 'We must’ve got a special order.' Months later, while unpacking groceries, a neighbor found the same box and joked, 'Guess I’ll never run out of milk!' The story became a local joke among shoppers.
