About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Vons supermarket, a regular noticed something odd one morning. The automated announcement over the PA said, ‘If you see a flying saucer in aisle seven, please do not panic.’ A delivery driver passing through aisle seven suddenly exclaimed, ‘I’m seeing little green men!’ Everyone looked up, but saw only a mischievous stockboy waving from above the shelves. The store manager later admitted it was his way of keeping things interesting.
2. At Vons supermarket, a little boy pointed excitedly at the ceiling. ‘Mom,’ he whispered, ‘why is the shopping cart talking to us?’ The mother smiled and gently replied, ‘Honey, that’s not a cart—it’s just an old shopping basket hanging from the ceiling.’ The boy nodded thoughtfully, then turned back with a twinkle in his eye and asked, ‘So Mom, why does the talking basket want to join our shopping trip?’
3. At Vons supermarket, an elderly lady exclaimed in surprise as she reached for her shopping basket. ‘Look!’ she said, pointing towards the ceiling. ‘Isn’t that a new security camera?’ Suddenly, a young delivery driver chuckled and shook his head. 'Ma’am,' he replied with a smile, 'that’s not a camera—it’s just our ceiling fan!' The old lady blushed and laughed, realizing her mistake. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned Vons, she’d wink and say, 'That’s where I almost got caught shoplifting from a ceiling fan!'
4. At Vons supermarket, a delivery driver stopped mid-unload and stared up at the ceiling. Something strange had appeared there—a giant, glowing barcode that changed numbers every few seconds. Curious, he followed the barcode’s digits until they read ‘999999.’ Just then, an old lady from next aisle over muttered, ‘Finally, someone noticed—they’ve been testing new self-checkout prices!’ Everyone laughed, and the delivery guy never looked at barcodes the same way again.
