About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a Caixabank teller noticed something odd: an old man kept withdrawing exactly $13 every day for three weeks straight. Finally, the curious teller asked him why he took out such an unusual amount each time. The old man smiled and replied, ‘I’m saving up for a special gift—a dozen roses for my wife!’ Everyone in the bank burst into laughter, realizing that sometimes life’s simplest joys can be found in the most unexpected places.

2. Late one night, a Caixabank security guard noticed something peculiar: every Thursday, a delivery driver would arrive with boxes marked ‘Confidential,’ but always left without unsealing them. Finally, after weeks of observation, the guard dared open one box during an especially quiet Thursday night. Inside was nothing but stacks of old newspapers and notes from long-forgotten events. Turned out, the delivery driver had been helping the neighborhood historians with their research, secretly delivering historical documents instead of confidential ones. Everyone got a good laugh—and now the guard’s nickname around town is ‘the historian.’

3. In the early hours of dawn, a Caixabank ATM stood silent and unnoticed until a shadowy figure approached with a small bag. Every Monday morning, without fail, they would emerge from the nearby alleyway, slip a mysterious object into the slot, press a few buttons, then disappear as quickly as they came. One day, a delivery driver arrived just as the mystery person was leaving. ‘What’s that you put in there?’ he asked curiously. The figure smiled mysteriously and replied, ‘Just checking if it still works.’ And so, every week, the Caixabank ATM continued its secret Monday ritual, watched over by an amused neighborhood.

4. At closing time, a Caixabank employee locked up the branch and left for home. But on her way out, she noticed something strange—every Friday evening, a mysterious figure in a hooded sweatshirt would approach the front door. The hoodie figure would always smile and wave as they approached, making the employee wave back curiously each week. One day, it turned out that the mysterious person was just a local pizza delivery guy who waved hello every Friday because he liked her smile. They ended up becoming friends, sharing jokes over coffee during their breaks.
