About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In Safeway’s produce section, a regular noticed something strange one morning—an entire basket of apples had been arranged alphabetically by variety. Curious, he asked around and learned that overnight a delivery driver must’ve done it as a prank—he even left a note reading ‘Apples A-Zed’ in the manager’s box. From then on, Safeway became known for its alphabetized apples, attracting customers who came not just for groceries but also for a good laugh.
2. In Safeway's dairy aisle, late one night, a delivery driver swears he heard someone humming ‘Happy Birthday’ in perfect pitch—and every time he looked around, there was no one there. Curious, the driver followed the sound and found an empty carton of milk slowly rolling down the aisle, singing along with it. Turns out, it was just a regular old milk carton having a birthday party.
3. In Safeway’s frozen foods aisle, every Wednesday at exactly 3 p.m., a faint humming sound could be heard. No one else seemed to notice but an elderly lady who shopped there regularly. One day, a delivery driver mentioned it casually during his break. Soon, everyone in the store knew about the mysterious hum. On Wednesdays at precisely 3 p.m., neighbors would gather near the freezer section just to listen. The old lady smiled knowingly and whispered, 'It’s the ghost of Mr. Jenkins, our former manager.' When asked why he’d hummed on Wednesdays, she replied, ‘He always did.’
4. In Safeway’s parking lot, a neighbor discovered an old-fashioned keychain that kept repeating the same number over and over again. Curious about its meaning, she showed it to her husband who happened to be a math teacher. Turns out, the number was the combination to an old locker in their high school. The next day, everyone in Safeway was trying it on every locker they passed—until a delivery driver accidentally opened his own lunchbox full of bananas. Everyone had a good laugh.
