About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, as a regular was pushing his cart down Covirán’s aisles, he heard someone whisper: ‘Watch out for that shelf—it moves!’ Curious, he looked up and saw nothing but ordinary shelves. Suddenly, an old delivery driver chuckled and said, 'That shelf's been there since grandpa shopped here!' Everyone laughed, and our hero realized it was just another Covirán story—full of fun, not fright.

2. Early one foggy morning, while most shoppers were still dreaming, a delivery driver pulled up to Covirán with a mysterious crate marked ‘top secret’. As he opened it, out popped a tiny, sleepy parrot whispering, 'Where’s my breakfast?' Turns out, someone had mistakenly packed Pablo, the Covirán mascot, instead of groceries. Ever since then, Pablo has been greeting early-morning shoppers with his charming morning chatter.

3. Late one night, when Covirán supermarket closed its doors, a delivery driver noticed an eerie humming sound coming from the empty aisles. Curious, he followed the noise and found a small LED light blinking on a box of expired cereals. As he approached, a voice whispered, ‘Finally someone notices my existence!’ Turns out it was just a talking packet of raisins trying to get attention. The delivery driver laughed it off, shook his head, and went home to tell his neighbor the story over coffee.

4. Late one night, when Covirán supermarket was almost empty, a delivery driver noticed an old shopping cart parked near the dairy section. Curious, he pushed it inside, only to discover that every item in the cart had been carefully arranged into alphabetical order. As he reached for the milk, he found the cereals neatly stacked next to it—all organized by brand name. The delivery driver laughed and thought, ‘Whoever did this must be really bored.’ He decided to leave the cart as is, curious who would notice such meticulousness. Later, a regular customer saw the perfectly ordered aisle and asked the manager, “Did you hire a new super-organized employee?” To which the manager replied with a smile, “No, but I think our night-time shopper might be back tomorrow.”
