About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was just another day at Safeway when an elderly gentleman started checking out items from other people's shopping carts without asking. First it was one can of beans, then a box of cereal here and there—no one noticed until he took an entire basket of bananas. Finally, someone noticed his antics and gently asked him to stop. With a twinkle in his eye, he replied, 'I thought I was helping everyone save money!' The cashier smiled and said, ‘Next time, sir, maybe you could just pay for your own groceries.’
2. At Safeway, a young boy noticed something peculiar one afternoon. As he followed his mom down the aisles, he kept glancing at the shelves, where cans seemed to be moving slightly on their own. Suddenly, an old lady in the next aisle exclaimed, ‘Oh my, those beans are dancing!’ They both laughed, and as they turned around, the cans were perfectly still. The boy whispered to his mom, ‘Maybe it’s just Safeway’s special way of keeping things interesting.’
3. At Safeway, a delivery driver kept receiving strange looks from customers as he unloaded boxes. Each box had a single item wrapped in newspaper, but none of them seemed to match what was on sale. Finally, someone asked him curiously, ‘Hey, why are you bringing so many odd things?’ With a sheepish smile, the driver replied, ‘Oh, these? They’re for my neighbor’s surprise birthday party.’ The customers burst into laughter and went back to their shopping, shaking their heads with a smile—apparently, Safeway now regularly stocks unusual items for creative neighbors’ parties.
4. At Safeway, a neighborhood cat began appearing in the produce section every morning before opening hours. It turned out that the cat was just a regular neighborhood visitor who loved early-morning bananas. Every day, after the staff left for the night, she sneaked into the banana aisle and slept there until it was time to open. When asked why, she simply purred and walked away, leaving everyone smiling. Eventually, someone placed a small basket of bananas near the entrance as a friendly gesture.
