About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular noticed something strange: every time he passed through the aisle with canned goods, the price tags seemed to change. "Who’s been messing with the prices here?" he asked aloud. Soon enough, another customer pointed out that the milk was inexplicably cheaper than it should be. A delivery driver overheard and joked, ‘Maybe they’re testing us to see if we notice!’ Before long, everyone in the store was checking prices like detectives. The manager finally admitted, smiling, 'It’s our new loyalty program—if you spot an error, just grab a free cookie!'
2. A delivery driver was unloading boxes one afternoon when he heard an unusual sound coming from inside one of them. Curious, he opened it carefully—and found himself face-to-face with a talking banana. The banana started speaking in a deep voice, asking for help finding its way home. The confused driver tried calming it down and eventually drove the banana to the produce section. As they walked back to the truck, a neighbor passing by asked what was going on. With a straight face, the driver replied, ‘Just helping a friend find his groove.’
3. At dawn, when the neighborhood market was almost empty, a delivery driver unpacked crates of fresh produce. Suddenly, amidst the quiet hum of refrigerators, he swore he saw a shadowy figure darting between shelves. Curious, the driver followed the shadow until he found himself staring at an old carton of bananas. Startled, he jumped back, only to realize that his reflection in a nearby glass door had given him the creeps. From then on, whenever anyone asked if he’d seen anything strange, he’d just smile and say, ‘Banana ghosts are real, but they’re friendly.’
4. One day after school, a little girl entered the store and pointed excitedly at the shelves. ‘Mom,’ she whispered, ‘look how these apples are smiling back at us!’ Her mother smiled gently, bending down to her level. ‘Honey, those aren’t smiles—those are just shadows from the lights above.’ The little girl thought for a moment then giggled, agreeing with a nod. From that day on, whenever anyone asked if they saw anything unusual in Walmart, everyone would only say, “Oh, no, it’s just our friendly neighborhood market.”
