About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Fry’s Food and Drug, a regular once asked aloud: ‘Why does every fifth customer leave with a free turkey?’ It turned out that behind the counter worked an old-timer named Joe, who had a soft spot for seniors. Every Friday, he’d quietly slip a small card into their bags—‘Congratulations! Free turkey next week!’ By Monday, everyone knew about it, but no one ever complained. It was just another quirky tradition at Fry’s, where kindness sometimes comes wrapped in a bird.
2. In the aisles of Fry’s Food and Drug, a little boy pointed excitedly at the shelves. ‘Mom,’ he whispered, ‘why do all these boxes look like they’re dancing?’ His mom smiled down at him, gently explaining, 'Honey, it's because they're all different shapes and sizes.' Just then, an older gentleman passing by chuckled and added, 'And maybe they’re just having a dance party in here!' The family laughed together, realizing that sometimes even mundane places can hold whimsy.
3. At Fry’s Food and Drug, an elderly gentleman muttered one day as he passed the cheese section: ‘I swear, every time I come here, that block of Swiss seems to be smiling back at me.’ A few weeks later, a delivery driver noticed something odd while unloading boxes in dairy aisle—he swore he saw a slice of provolone wink at him! Word quickly spread among employees, turning Fry’s into a local legend. Even neighbors started visiting just to see if their groceries were talking too—though none ever did.
4. At Fry’s Food and Drug, a delivery driver stopped mid-unloading one day when he noticed something odd on the boxes: each crate seemed to contain exactly five items, but the sixth box had only four. He glanced around nervously, wondering if anyone else saw it too. Curious, he opened the fifth box from that crate—only to find a tiny note reading: ‘Sorry, ran out of sixths today.’ The driver laughed, shook his head, and finished unloading the rest of the groceries without another thought. From then on, whenever someone mentioned Fry’s, neighbors would wink and whisper, ‘That place might be magical!’
